According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/industry\/blog\/manufacturing\/2022\/08\/11\/top-6-findings-from-iot-signals-manufacturing-spotlight\/\">Microsoft 2022 IoT Signals Report<\/a> surveying more than 500 manufacturers, most manufacturers across the globe are accelerating their efforts to build smart factories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upcoming report also shows that operational efficiency is still a top goal for manufacturers. Four out of five manufacturers consider overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) to be the most important area for improvement. However, over the next three years, they expect to see the biggest improvements in cybersecurity, sustainability, and quality. Additionally, manufacturers are facing new challenges with smart factory initiatives\u2014particularly when it comes to developing new software applications and dealing with skills gaps in data science, AI, and cybersecurity. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the fourth installment of our on-demand webinar series, we\u2019ll discuss these and other findings with our partner PTC Inc.
