The State of Manufacturing Technology

For this report, we surveyed more than 130 manufacturers on the technologies they rely on and the tools they plan to incorporate in the coming years. Respondents are both global and growing: 89 percent of respondents reported rising revenue during the past five years. Perhaps more impressive, 39 percent noted growth greater than 20 percent during that time period. Of the companies surveyed, more than two-thirds operate multiple manufacturing facilities, and while the survey focuses on U.S.- headquartered companies, nearly half have international operations.
