In this post:

  • 80% struggle with AI; 84% expect improvements.
  • Data quality is key for AI in the industry.
  • AI’s potential is undimmed by challenges.

The leading PLM (product lifecycle management) and digital thread solutions provider, the“2024 Spotlight on the Future” exhibit indicates a massive mismatch in the Industrial sector of AI adoption readiness. In line with the report, around 80% of companies, who are involved in the manufacturing and processing of industrial commodities, are unable to grasp the concept of AI or the strategic-level competence required to effectively use AI, it has been found. Nevertheless, a global optimistic sentiment — 84% of the companies — expect AI to give life to new or improved services, with 82% of them foreseeing a sudden improvement in quality standards.

Survey insights in preparedness vs. expectation

The pervasive study conducted among 835 prestigious senior-level executives both from foreign and local businesses within the United States, Europe, and Japan was comprised of a heterogeneous industrial background. It highlights a pressing issue: the fact that an important segment of the companies experiences capacity bottlenecks (79%), lack of expertise (77%), their IT solutions being generally isolated (75%), and concerns over data quality (70%) is a major problem to the industry.

Going further into a more positive light, the report keeps track of a consensus regarding the possible advantages of AI introduction as part of PLM processes. It has been ascertained that 75% of the respondents support the idea that AI is a positive factor about artificial intelligence in their business strategies.

The critical role of data quality

Ara’s report puts high-quality data first in its AI initiatives and focuses on how. Participants’ survey reflects the importance of product information data, quality control data, production data, and consumer data, but it can still be short of business objectives due to the quality of current data. To fight against the rise of this issue 51 % of the responders are speeding up activities to raise productivity processes, whereas 46 % are on services data, and 45% on research and development data sets. 

The varying nature of these work progress forms shows the change that can now be expected in the way AI will be used in the industry, which is due to the industry now looking at the role that quality data plays. While Roque Martin, CEO of Aras, points out well-needed proactivity in the approach of the company as a whole towards the innovative technology of AI from the development of the product to its production and sales, They want to see the companies with dynamic and outdated PLM be far more than that those that are fitting well in the spheres of new and data-rich technologies. Through the adoption of AI, businesses can profit much more from technological advancement and the chances it opens.

AI Optimism Amid Industrial Challenges

The other proportion of survey participants state optimism, with 84% thinking of AI sending other or improved services and 82% counting on the quality and reliability of the services as an improvement. Such an outlook presents the opportunity for AI to make companies and their customers better, and the current limitations should not be an impetus of fear. 

The industrial sector deployment readiness for AI can be observed in the “The Industrial Sector Today” report, which was carried out by Aras. On the surface, the results embody a faultless critical appraisal of deficiencies in knowledge, capacity, and data quality. However, there is a very strong undercurrent of optimism regarding AI as a transformative agent. With ALM trying to deal with these challenges, it is maintaining its attention on improving the quality and modernization of PLM systems. Besides its current goal of short-run success, it is a long-run sustainability and competitive survival effort in an era where AI is a major determinant.

The insights generated by the research become a wake-up call for the companies to realize the need for a new integrated model of AI adoption. This awakening also brings the dawn of a new era where technology and human expertise weave their strengths to enforce a level of efficiency and innovation never seen hitherto.
