The AI Implementation Gap in Manufacturing
Manufacturing leaders face a critical challenge: AI transformation is essential for competitive advantage, but most organizations struggle to build lasting internal capability. (Accenture, Built to Scale 2023)
The consultant dependency cycle is common issue AI implementation projects. Companies invest heavily in external expertise, see initial results, then struggle to maintain and scale solutions when consultants leave.
Key challenges include:
- Integration complexity across engineering and data science disciplines
- Scaling difficulties from proof-of-concept to full production
- Building sustainable internal AI capabilities
Why do you need to keep the knowledge in-house?
- AI initiatives are often core to the strategy and are too important to be left entirely under control of third parties
- Knowledge transfer gaps when external teams conclude projects
- The AI revolution is just getting started and new AI projects will keep on coming, making it unfeasible to keep the knowledge outside of your organization.
