Resilience has been prioritized in the supply chain and throughout production operations. Digital leaders have now validated their strategies against the real-world challenges brought on by the pandemic\, and are accelerating their innovation and transformation initiatives. Many companies supported “connected” remote and frontline workers far earlier than they anticipated\, and will now do more. Having seen the power of disruptive technologies to transform business operations and competitive strategies\, improve resilience\, reduce costs\, and better serve customers\, it’s full speed ahead. \nTechnologies like cloud\, machine learning\, edge computing\, IoT\, cybersecurity technology\, additive manufacturing\, augmented reality\, and more are enabling new business processes and obscuring traditional functional boundaries.  OT\, IT\, and ET teams are growing their skills and capabilities and transforming real-time operations.  Governance and compliance\, workforce and skills\, customer-centricity\, competitive excellence\, and change management all need management attention. Seeking to be among the winners in the new normal\, executives charged with driving transformation are seizing this moment to innovate and deliver real value.  Call it digital transformation\, smart manufacturing\, smart cities\, or Industry 4.0\, there is a rush to innovate\, transform\, and accelerate the future.
