Technology is growing at an exponential pace. The rapid emergence and maturation of technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), and Industry 4.0 are fundamentally changing how traditional industries operate. As the focus of modern engineering becomes more digital, businesses require services that can reimagine the value chain and accelerate new business models. For digital leaders in the engineering industries, the need to adapt is critical if they wish to remain competitive and drive growth.
The Onus of Engineering Support Services in the Digital Transformation Landscape
Digital technologies have reached a point of synergetic convergence. Varied innovations such as blockchain, IoT, RPA, AI, and 3D-printing are being deployed together as a part of Industry 4.0. And while most manufacturing companies are well versed with mechanical and embedded engineering technologies, they often face challenges on the side of software-led transformation.
Thankfully, engineering support services have come a long way over the years. Its role has become strategically critical as manufacturer’s have entered the digital age on a global scale. International trade and globalization has also led to many competitors arising in this segment in a relatively short period of time. However, most of these companies lack a historic base in the core sectors or have a comprehensive framework that can adapt to a growing enterprise.
