Manufacturing organizations today and in the future will have to operate in a business and market environment that will continue to be volatile, uncertain, and complex, while operating in an increasingly digital economy. At the same time, they will have to embed sustainability targets into their operations to comply with legal regulations and customer requirements (such as reducing CO2 emissions). To thrive, manufacturing organization CEOs and C-suites need to find the right formula to balance the need to fix the present and at the same time prepare for the future. IDC Insights has designed a framework to helpcompanies thrive and to "PRIME" them for profitable outcomes and sustainable long-term business growth.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a powerful technology that has wide-ranging applications, including many in the pharmaceutical industry. Among the approaches that are being explored in the production of pharmaceutical dosage forms powder-based systems which utilize either drop-on-powder or selective laser sintering and liquid-based systems which use dropon-drop deposition or stereolithography are frequently applied. With liquid-based technology, either UV, laser energy or high temperature is used to induce polymerization and build the 3D structure.1 The process of 3D printing offers the potential to produce medications tailored to the needs of patients and dosage forms in various shapes, sizes and textures with different release profiles that can be difficult to produce using conventional techniques.2

Around the world, traditional manufacturing industry is in the throes of a digital transformation that is accelerated by exponentially growing technologies (e.g. intelligent robots, autonomous drones, sensors, 3D printing). The pace of change reflects ’Moore’s law’ on the speed at which information technology-driven change happens. Companies and their industrial processes need to adapt to this rapid change if they are not to be left behind by developments in their sector and by their competitors.

A connected machine ecosystem comprises industrial assets interlinked via software and intelligent technologies, to drive smarter and more agile decisions. Industry 4.0, a revolution driven by advancements in technology, integrates physical operations with smart digital technologies (such as AI, industrial IoT, blockchain, connectivity infrastructure, etc.) to create a more holistic, interconnected, and a cyber-physical system for manufacturers. A connected ecosystem, which enables industrial IoT (IIoT), acts as a building block for manufacturers in realizing the Industry 4.0 benefits.
