Manufacturing

Optimize and automate processes and create an outstanding customer experience.

Digital Solutions That Delight Your Customers

The manufacturing industry is facing profound changes: automation, the interconnection of production and supply chains, as well as rising customer expectations require innovative solutions. An excellent Customer Experience (CX) is becoming the decisive differentiating factor. Companies must digitally transform their sales structures to offer customers a consistent shopping experience across all channels. At the same time, efficient logistics and supply chain management is becoming increasingly important to ensure fast, transparent, and resilient delivery processes.

With digitalization and automation, you can:

  • Build long-term customer loyalty,

  • Simplify internal processes,

  • And improve customer satisfaction.

Ensure that every interaction with your target groups works seamlessly with a forward-looking CX strategy – with personalized marketing approaches, modern webshops, or full-service portals. Make your performance promise tangible through targeted communication.

Designing a Future-Proof Customer Experience

Current studies show:

  • 65% of companies face challenges in e-commerce.

  • 80% demand more automation in data management.

What does this mean for the manufacturing industry?

Digital transformation presents companies with concrete tasks:

  • Serve global markets and consider local requirements.

  • Address specific needs of customer groups, e.g., engineers, purchasers, and decision-makers.

  • Integrate existing sales structures, develop digital configurations and consulting services.

  • Improve spare parts procurement and service business through digital twins.

  • Create digital supplier communication for seamless supply chains.

  • Connect existing systems such as ERP and PIM.

  • Optimize the link between Product Experience Management (PXM) and Customer Experience Management (CXM).
