The Australian manufacturing industry is on the brink of a remarkable transformation, driven by rapid advancements in technology, particularly artificial intelligence, and machine learning. Data, predicted to increase tenfold globally by 2025, is at the heart of this revolution.

This convergence, often referred to as Industry 4.0, offers vast opportunities for Australian manufacturers. Yet, navigating this transformation requires careful consideration of technology, processes, people, government policies, and community dynamics.

The first edition of The Future of Digitalisation for Australian Manufacturers, based on insights from over one hundred Australian manufacturers, unveils compelling trends such as:

•  78% of respondents envision fully automated, data-driven manufacturing within the next 3 years.
• 84% of respondents plan to implement data integration to enhance visibility and integration across the product life cycle.
• 90% of respondents aim for increased digitisation of systems tasks by 2026, emphasising the need for seamless and secure data exchange through integrated systems.
