No matter where you look in our industry, you’ll see people talking about something called “Digital Transformation” or “Industry 4.0”. It’s a hot topic right now, yet it is not clear what it’s supposed to look like in the context of industrial automation. John H. Carter Company is working to create clarity around the Digital Transformation topic. One way to do it is via our website’s Blog section. Over time, we hope you’ll find this series of content valuable to the discussions you may be having or soon have at your site.
So, What Is Digital Transformation?
As you can imagine, we hear this question a lot. And depending on who you talk to, you may get a slightly different answer. In a nutshell, Digital Transformation is a collected effort to integrate digital technologies into all areas of business, fundamentally changing how you operate, deliver value to your customers, and achieve top quartile performance via critical key performance indicators. Examples of digital technologies could be the usage of wireless connectivity, machine learning, advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, data connectivity, or cloud computing.
Some refer to Digital Transformation as the 4th Industrial Revolution or Industry 4.0 because it is believed to be the fourth massively disruptive innovation in manufacturing industries. Whatever the term, the concept is shared by all – in order to remain viable, industries must digitally transform.

But Digital Transformation isn’t just about technology. In most cases, it’s a cultural change that requires organizations to continually challenge the status quo, experiment, and get comfortable with learning and testing new things in controlled environments. Investing in and empowering your workforce is the best way to ensure a successful business outcome.
