We're now in.the era of Al scale.Aglobalindustrial technologycompanydesignedandtestedone of its plants entirely in thebrick.Concentrated.committedresults: That company cut leadtimesby78%and time-to-marketby33%,raised productivity by 14%and reducedcarbonemissionsby28%.Net climateimpact will varyby energy mix and the Alcomputefootprint overtime.Across facilities operating today, audited results show that organizations.deploying agentic Al in the supply chain recoverfrom disruption 60% faster,carry 22% lessinventory and reduce cost ofgoods sold by 5%. AleadingFrench automaker generates over $140million peryearfromitsAlprogram,while a Chinese appliance manufacturer estimated its Al program ROl overthe next several years at over 100%-with Al now embedded in 30% ofall employee KPls.These results raise a practical question: How do manufacturers move fromisolated wins to an operating model that scales Al across a network? Toanswer it, we spoke with 36 manufacturing executives and experts acrossEurope, North America and Asia-Pacific. We wanted to understand how, manufacturers were embracing Al and rethinking how they did business withthesenew technologies. Whatleaders atthetopcompaniesshowed us wasfar more than a series of Al pilots: it was a whole new way of building theinunless otherwise cited.
