Optimizing Manufacturing Communication Infrastructure: 10 Strategic Steps

Strategic Vision Beyond the Immediate:
After a recent visit to a Dallas manufacturing facility, it's evident that investing in communication infrastructure requires foresight. Think long term—3 to 5 years ahead—when upgrading or implementing new communications systems.
Partnership Beyond Technology:
Your vendor's questions should transcend technical specifications. If they're not asking about the business outcomes for your company and customers, consider the depth of that partnership.
Prioritization is Key:
Create a comprehensive list of use cases and pain points, then prioritize them based on their impact. This roadmap guides your investment decisions.
Preparing for the Worst:
Equally important is a list sorted by worst-case scenarios. This proactive approach prepares for contingencies and risk mitigation.
Temporal Spread of Use Cases:
Ensure your use cases span the 3- to 5-year mark. If they don't, it's time to reassess and delve deeper into your strategy.
Tailored Communication Solutions:
Distinguish between mobility and fixed wireless needs. Solutions like WiFi, DAS, private LTE, or Unified Communications serve different purposes.
Understanding Solution Providers:
Recognize the differences between Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 solution providers. This understanding drives your decision-making process.
Financial Assessment:
Conduct a comprehensive ROI analysis for a 5-year span. This lays the groundwork for informed financial decisions.
Robust Project Management:
Phase the project meticulously, allowing enough time for unforeseen challenges. Factor in risks and contingencies into your timeline.
Distributed Risk Management:
Execute in phases with multiple partners. This distributes risk and ensures a smoother implementation process.
In addition, it's critical to have long-term managed service plans in place or collaborate with experts in these areas. These strategic steps empower manufacturing CIOs and executives to craft a communication infrastructure that's resilient, future-ready, and aligned with business objectives.
