In this day and age, technology is a key component to most businesses. Besides the heavy equipment involved in manufacturing like printers, presses, and power tools, you need IT infrastructure to connect the equipment to the network and keep it up and running smoothly. It’s no surprise that most manufacturing is now done via computers, as opposed to manually. In order for this to work, the equipment needs to be able to connect to the computer with the correct software. It also needs to be able to connect to the engineers’ and designers’ computers to access the CAD and template plans. It should also be able to connect to customer service to know how many products need to be made. For this connection to work and flow in an efficient manner, you need a strong IT network and infrastructure.
