What Is Smart Manufacturing?
Smart manufacturing is the combination of software and hardware that provides greater visibility into operations and production for manufacturing businesses.

Organizations that enjoy the benefits of smart manufacturing may have solutions like:
- An enterprise resource planning (ERP) system
- Robotic process automation (RPA)
- Business process automation
- Business intelligence (BI)
- Sensors and other smart shop floor hardware
