In spite of the challenges facing the global and local economy, systems integration expert, Iritron, remains optimistic for the year ahead and believes that are significant opportunities to be found during a challenging economic climate.<\/p>\n
Iritron\u2019s expertise lies in systems integration, automation, and high-level Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES). These systems can make operators, operational managers, and C-suite executives aware of any inefficient processes so that they can take appropriate action and steer the operations towards efficiency.<\/p>\n
The question is how do we assist companies to capitalize on risks by turning them into opportunities to capture growth? Iritron CEO Alwyn Rautenbach believes Iritron can enable customers to operate as effectively, and as profitable as possible, should the forecasted economic downturn materialize.<\/p>\n
\u201cIndustries are experiencing challenges and have been\u00a0 transitioning over the past few years. I strongly believe that organisations that have shown maturity in, and see the potential of, investing in industrial automation technologies will show greater resilience and develop the required agility to adapt to different economic climates, as we saw during the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies understand that to drive future competitiveness, they need to invest in smart factory or operational transformations,\u201d explains Rautenbach.<\/p>\n
He points out that Iritron\u2019s capabilities and expertise are very much centred around identifying inefficiencies and providing improvements for customers. \u201cIritron has a strong service offering focussing on effective manufacturing operations,\u201d he says. \u201cThe continuous improvement cycle requires that companies produce high-quality products and services without waste, with less resource and material input, safely, and in a shorter time. And in 2023, we can enable many customers to achieve this goal.\u201d<\/p>\n
He advises customers to be agile and ready should the economy continue contracting as the World Bank proposes. The World Bank recently released its Global Economic Prospects report for 2023, highlighting a sharp downturn in economic growth for developing countries because of elevated inflation, higher interest rates, reduced investment, and geopolitical concerns.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe should use the bearish market as an opportunity to utilize automation techniques, tools, and MES systems, which will lead to improved productivity. I believe this year, businesses will continue to see the value\u00a0 that innovation and the adoption of technology can bring to the bottom line. To enable this, every organisation needs\u00a0 to ensure that they embed the right technology across their operations \u2013 and we, at Iritron, have the experience, knowledge and skills to deliver and drive our clients to the next level of success,\u00a0\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n
