Thanks to Los Angeles

manufacturers,




LA still ranks as one of the

biggest centers (#1 in 2014)

of manufacturing in America




Behind that statistic, however,

there are many challenges

this sector faces




1. Workforce Renewal and

Digital Transformation




Fundamental difficulties

to resolve include:




• Aging workforces




• Increasing the

concentration of low-wage,

low-skill manufacturing




• Lack of skilled workers




2. The Priority is Still Real

Business Benefit




It would be unwise

to suggest that just

slapping more technology

onto manufacturing

solves all problems




3. Somewhere Over the

Rainbow (or Up in the

Cloud)




Since then, technology has

become both cheaper and

easier to use for business

benefit




Cloud computing services

are a case in point




Los Angeles manufacturers

can access ERP (enterprise

resource planning) software,

procurement and logistics

management programs,




and CRM (customer

relationship management)

applications to smooth and

accelerate daily operations




Other cloud solutions to

help attract new workers,

upgrade skills, and add value

in the manufacturing sector

are available too

manufacturing company
