There are different tracking technologies typically used in a production facility. Depending on the amount of data transmitted and the complexity of implementation each have corresponding price points. The manual manipulation of hand scanners requires time for processing and allows for error in recording. The cost of implementation is low, but systems require consistent investment of time devoted to ensuring accuracy. The cost to serialize assets for tracking is low, but the data can be damaged and capacity/flexibility for data storage is limited.

Manufacturing organizations benefit from the automation brought by the Third Industrial Revolution, but struggle to extract value from and manage the massive volumes of data created by 20th Century process innovation. The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) - now present - promises to offer tools to unlock the value of these massive quantities of data with the use of technologies such as Data Analytics, Machine Learning & Industrial IoT. However, manufacturing companies still struggle to convert this data value into business outcomes due to the proliferation of data silos, and the overwhelming prevalence of complex and unwieldy data supply chains which leaves data in an unmanageable state.
