Overview
Organizations across the manufacturing and aerospace and defense are facing unprecedented changes today brought in by the post-COVID-19 scenario. Therefore, the companies must work in a smarter way, increase visibility, and learn to become more resilient.
HCLTech’s Manufacturing, A&D, and SAP teams joined hands with Americas' SAP Users' Group (ASUG) and leaders from Stanley Black & Decker and SAP for a series of discussions, comprising four webcasts. This was followed by a live panel discussion on the growing complexity of global supply chains, the relevance of cloud in the development of the manufacturing industry, and the value of digital continuity and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) in the A&D sector.
The event saw participation from over 65 manufacturing industry leaders from various organizations.
