However, essential prerequisites - such as a universal production language and standards and norms as a common semantic basis - are required for realization, some of which are still under development.<\/p>\n<p>Many technological building blocks, on the other hand, are already available for practical use. The realization of the smart factory is new territory for everyone involved. Drawing up an overall roadmap for their own transformation is part of every company's specifications.<\/p>\n<p>The demands on management here are high. Management should therefore have basic IT expertise - after all, IT in combination with telecommunications is a key factor in the transformation that will take years.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where is the manufacturing industry in Germany heading in the next few years?
