The Digital Manufacturing Ireland (DMI) event brought together small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing industry on the 10th of May 2023 with the aim of connecting them and helping them grow. The event focused on implementing digital solutions, with Tim Crowe, CEO and Co-Founder of WrxFlo as a speaker.
Tim’s presentation focused on the benefits of digitalization in the manufacturing process. By eliminating paper-based processes, businesses can reduce the risk of errors and improve data accuracy. Furthermore, going paperless can help reduce costs associated with printing, storage, and transportation of physical documents.
The benefits of going paperless also extend to the environmental impact of manufacturing. By reducing paper usage, businesses can significantly decrease their carbon footprint, contributing to a more sustainable future.
WrxFlo’s software is designed to streamline the manufacturing process, offering a range of digital solutions to help businesses achieve a more efficient and sustainable workflow. Our digital platform allows for real-time monitoring of the manufacturing process, enabling businesses to identify and resolve issues quickly and efficiently.
Tim Crowe continued to emphasize the importance of people, process, and technology when implementing digital solutions. In order to successfully integrate new technologies into a business, it is crucial to have a clear understanding of the existing processes and the roles of the people involved. Technology should be seen as a tool to enhance and support these processes, rather than as a solution in itself. By focusing on the people and processes, businesses can ensure a smoother transition to digital solutions, with improved adoption and better results.
The presentation at the DMI event was well received by local businesses, who recognized the importance of digitalization in the manufacturing industry. Many attendees expressed interest in implementing digital solutions in their own businesses, and WrxFlo’s software was highlighted as a valuable tool in achieving this goal.
The event was concluded by a presentation from Emma Callinan, Director of Manufacturing for Enterprise Ireland. She discussed the several funding opportunities available through Enterprise Ireland for businesses that want to implement digital solutions. Such as the Lean Start Programme, Digital Discovery Grant, Operational Excellence Offer and The Digital Process Innovation Grant.
