Tradi8onal  manufacturing  is  facing  major  challenges  

Dis8nc8on  between  soCware  and  hardware  becomes  obsolete  

Order  sizes  are  becoming  smaller  

Mass    manufacturing  

Lean    manufacturing  

Agile  manufacturing  

Is  manufacturing  going  full  cycle?  

Large  scale    manufacturing  

Nobody  can  deal  with  all  of  that  alone  

What  about  manufacturing?  

What  works  in  research  &  development:  •  Proac8ve  aLen8on  •  Reac8ve  aLen8on  (especially  to  newcomers)  

Final  (first)  observa8ons  and  ideas  

•  People  over  process  –  make  work  s8mula8ng  and  self  determined  (agility  and  openness  can  not  be  forced  on  people)  

•  First  step  to  openness  are  suppliers  and  employers  

•  Good  quality  data  is  key  •  Build  on  what  we  already  know  from  open  innova8on  and  agile  soCware  development
