Challenges in the Modernization and Digital Transformation of Colombian Companies
Companies in Colombia face several challenges as they attempt to modernize their production processes and adapt to the demands of Industry 4.0. These challenges include the integration of new technologies such as IoT, AI and robotics, the need to improve efficiency and productivity, and the pressure to remain competitive in a global market.
According to a study by Deloitte, more than 98% of Colombian entrepreneurs consider it crucial to promote the use of digital technologies in their companies. This trend reflects a growing commitment to digital transformation, which is essential to remain competitive in an increasingly demanding global market.
In this context, Moxa, a leading brand in connectivity and industrial automation solutions, stands out for offering advanced technologies that facilitate the digital transformation of industries.
Your company has probably faced some of these problems:
Problem 1: Connectivity and Communication in Demanding Environments
Automation companies in Colombia often face connectivity and communication issues in demanding industrial environments such as factories, power plants and mines. Traditional network infrastructure is not always able to withstand the extreme conditions of these environments, which can result in outages and data loss.
