Digital transformation by MES professionals: gbo datacomp accompanies companies step by step into Industry 4.0The fourth industrial revolution is in full swing, companies are digitizing their processes and becoming more effective and flexible in production. Industry 4.0 is the buzzword of our time. But there are many roads to the Smart Factory, because no company starts the digitization at zero. Even within a company, there are different levels of digitization progress between the individual departments. For gbo datacomp, this individual digitization situation is the basis on which MES professionals, together with medium-sized companies, develop comprehensive and practicable Industry 4.0 solutions for the networked production future.
