Our world is changing. Industries everywhere are increasingly global in footprint and digital in their operations. Your manufacturing business must be no exception.
Understanding and embracing new approaches, new materials, even new business models, is critical to building a company that can meet both the demands of today and the challenges of tomorrow.
Smart Manufacturing
As more governments move to codify sustainability requirements into law, this opens up manufacturers to operational risks like penalties and litigation. With the right solution, manufacturers can harmonize global operations with different legal requirements. They can also improve energy risk management by integrating the best low-carbon power generation sources to become less reliant on price-volatile carbon-based energy options
Promote innovation
New production processes can be leveraged to innovate new product lines in a sustainable manner. Nike, for example, innovated its new Flyknit line where new manufacturing processes required minimal labor and enjoyed significant waste reduction while also removing waste from landfills. The line is also profitable for Nike, generating over US$2 billion in revenue since it was implemented..

Your customers want mass customization and are prepared to vote with their wallets
You can have any color you want, as long as it's black," Henry Ford once said. The industrial revolution has come a long way since the Ford Motor Company founder uttered this famous line and went on to develop the assembly line technique to mass-produce identical cars in 1913. Today, the manufacturing world sees a distinct shift from mass production to mass customization. Customers are now better informed and want products tailored to their preferences.

Today, the manufacturing world sees a distinct shift from mass production to mass customization. Customers are now better informed and want products tailored to their preferences.
Small Batches for a Big Payoff
Small batch production is a key component that accelerates the shift to agile mass customization. The transition to this model requires an integrated cloud platform that enables collaboration across multiple project teams and timelines.
Developing goods in small batches at cost and scale allows manufacturers the flexibility to maximize resources. They can also execute concurrent production processes and multiple parallel activities that feed into a final assembly stage.
Besides manufacturing more diverse products with shorter life cycles, small batch production offers payoffs in cost control, new product testing, production scale-up and waste reduction.

You can have any color you want, as long as it's black," Henry Ford once said. The industrial revolution has come a long way since the Ford Motor Company founder uttered this famous line and went on to develop the assembly line technique to mass-produce identical cars in 1913. Today, the manufacturing world sees a distinct shift from mass production to mass customization. Customers are now better informed and want products tailored to their preferences.
With more than 50 percent of customers keen on purchasing customized products, it's not an option but a necessity to adopt an agile mass customization strategy to stay competitive. However, it’s challenging to juggle diverse portfolios, deliver more variants and maintain speed to market without end-to-end visibility that drives efficiency at every step. This is where an integrated platform can help build agility into mass customization without compromising efficiency, cost or quality. Download our ebook to find out more.
Waste Not, Want Not
Waste production is increasing worldwide, with a projected 70 percent increase over the next 30 years. Despite bringing economy of scale to the table, mass production also contributes to high energy waste. A study revealed that 20 percent of shoes produced worldwide annually are never sold. Unsold products that do not meet market demands are disposed of, representing wastage in material, time, equipment use and inventory.
On the other hand, agile mass customization is epitomized by resource efficiency and flexible processes. By accurately forecasting demand, manufacturers reduce waste and avoid having excess inventory, overloading assembly lines and factory space. Agile mass customization also supports overall waste reduction through lean global operations and supply chain processes.
Quality Is Never an Accident
The advantage of implementing an agile mass customization strategy is evident in product development. By using advanced 3D design capabilities that drive agility, manufacturers can optimize product design, speed up design iterations, accelerate product launches and deliver customized, high-quality products to the market.
In addition, manufacturers can use a virtual twin-enabled platform to:
- Optimize customized products' manufacturing without physical prototypes
- Better manage process disruptions
- Swiftly effect changes to meet individual market demands
The recent global health crisis brought the global supply chain to a standstill. To get a sense of the scale of the disruption, consider that:
- Over 40 percent of the Fortune Global 500 firms have a significant presence in China,1
- More than 75 percent of businesses have ‘one or more direct or Tier 1’ suppliers from China, and
- About 94 percent of the Fortune 1000 companies have Tier 2 suppliers there.2
As a result of propagated disruption, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) have estimated that global FDI shrank by 15 percent. Supply chain partners are also unable to fulfill orders in time — or at all — during the crisis; the reduction in material components and delivery levels will reverberate throughout the supply chain for the foreseeable future.
In turn, manufacturers now face the following significant challenges when it comes to effectively managing remote employees:
- Ensuring a stable, consistent transfer of knowledge between disparate teams and stakeholders
- Providing on-site teams with real-time support and expertise
- Effectively monitoring production health, performance and insights without being on-site
With large-scale remote working becoming the new operational reality, manufacturers must prepare themselves for a reduction in productivity and innovation while this transition takes place.
Data may be the crude oil of the 21st century, but without the ability to analyze and action based on tangible, accurate insights, it is simply taking up space.

- Improve brand image
- Better manage risks
- Promote innovation
Reduce energy costs
Lifecycle assessment capabilities that are improved with simulation enable manufacturers to calculate all environmental impacts across all lifecycle stages of their factory. This is crucial in helping them time their production processes with the availability of renewable energy sources to realize a low carbon footprint and optimize energy draw from the grid.
Limit waste
With the right tools, manufacturers can recycle and recover materials from waste and optimize raw material usage during the design phase. Reducing raw material outputs achieves knock-on effects in promoting more efficient and streamlined working practices, as manufacturers only use what they need, and improves a manufacturer’s bottom line, as they only need to purchase and store the right amount of material.
Improve brand image
When manufacturers can demonstrate the specific actions they’ve taken to achieve sustainable manufacturing and back it up with results data, they can substantiate their brand’s sustainability credentials. Instead of greenwashing, which is merely public relations in action, credibly sustainable companies can become more attractive to sustainability-minded consumers and potential employees looking for meaningful work.

In reality, many companies fail to address the complexities in their product development process despite having solid plans. It's not enough to merely break down the planning silos. What's more important is to have effective management of all the different disciplines when organizing the data and processes.
"Having a good plan is just one part of the overall process," explains Garth. You must also get everyone on board with the plan. How do you get everybody connected and integrated? Can you be sure that all stakeholders have full visibility of the overall plan? Is everyone on the same page?
Getting ahead of the competition requires a fully integrated product development process that involves three pillars of innovation.
Make rapid changes in the product development process
Be agile and quick when production needs to ramp up
Have incredible resiliency when disruptions occur
Jean-Marc Cauzac
Jean-Marc has been with Dassault Systèmes for over 30 years. He currently handles the fabrication portfolio and specializes in the additive and subtractive manufacturing domains.
Dominique Galmel
Dominique began his career with Dassault Systèmes developing automotive powertrain manufacturing solutions. His current portfolio covers digital manufacturing, supply chain planning and optimization, manufacturing execution systems and additive manufacturing.
JM: The attraction to additive manufacturing is not the same for different domains. Manufacturers that want to deploy the technology need to be clear about what it can contribute to their production and business.
For marine and offshore, it's the ability to quickly print spare parts to replace damaged ones. As more than one million parts can make up an oil rig, it is impossible — and not cost-effective — to keep spare parts for all of them on the platform. Requests for replacement parts from suppliers may also take days or weeks.
DG: The aerospace industry is leading the way in using additive manufacturing to produce parts, and in particular metallic parts for end-use. Weight reduction and optimization that improve performance and reduce costly fuel consumption are key drivers.
DG: It is now possible to produce metallic parts using additive manufacturing. However, replication difficulty and deformation hinder the implementation of the technology for large-scale manufacturing. Instead of adopting additive manufacturing as a new way to make parts, manufacturers can combine the technology with traditional manufacturing for the best results.
JM: Metal deposition is opening up more opportunities for manufacturers that previously relied on the powder bed. They are no longer limited by product size and the manufacturing environment. They're now able to produce and repair bigger parts such as blades for wind turbines.
JM: In traditional manufacturing, production begins with a big block of material, which needs to be stored somewhere, ready for use. When the material is worked on, most of it will be removed.
In the aerospace industry, that's around 90%, so there is much wastage. Materials also need to be transported. So, implementing additive manufacturing reduces logistic costs, fuel consumption and carbon impact.
Additive manufacturing generates vast amounts of data with countless iterations, each with a different impact. Data collection can be wholly beneficial if supported by a digital business platform that can extract meaningful patterns from these data sets.

The California startup Canoo is reinventing not just what a vehicle is, but also the business model for how it reaches customers.
Continuous enforcement of service improvements
Lean initiatives succeed when its enforcement is embedded directly into the manufacturing processes through automated directed manufacturing, reviews and signoffs. Employees can then be guided through new procedures, reinforcing new behaviors until they become habits. Stakeholders must also provide the proper resources and support towards implementing a Lean initiative that will stand the test of time.
Unfortunately, the current way of working for many companies impedes their ability to achieve continuity, particularly during times of extreme disruption. This can lead to inefficiencies, ultimately resulting in value being left on the table.</p>
Some of the existing challenges that stand in the way of Lean thinking include:
Organizational barriers
Top-down processes disempower and stifle teams that could otherwise add more value. As a result, teams lack good working relationships and tend to work in siloes. They also often lack the structure and learned behaviors to analyze problems, identify waste and ensure corrective actions are assigned.
Lack of outcome-oriented structures and processes
Many teams are disconnected; when they meet, their time is often wasted, lacking focus on what is important. Information is also disparate and not presented in a way that can steer discourse towards the desired outcome.

What happens to data that is extracted and stored?
Data sets typically remain siloed off in disconnected databases without being incorporated into the day-to-day manufacturing processes, making its interpretation, accessibility and use difficult.
