"The knowledge gap caused by rapid attrition of knowledgeable workers and the increased complexity of the manufacturing environment lead to a knowledge deficit that impacts the speed and fidelity in which manufacturers make decisions. The onus is on manufacturers to enable the emerging workforce with the technology and tools that offer them context for making prudent, fact- and historically-based decisions. Moving forward, IT tools and IT driven processes will play a major role in filling the knowledge void facing manufacturers."
