From a manufacturing perspective, there’s nothing more frustrating than computer downtime cutting into valuable production time and setting a project back by hours, days and sometimes weeks.
However, time and again, manufacturing facilities are the architects of their own shop floor pain points because options exist to greatly reduce the risk of computer downtime on the factory floor.
What’s frustrating is that having deployed computers to do the job of improving manufacturing productivity, usually at great expense, very little consideration is given to protecting one of the most crucial capital assets of modern manufacturing.
It’s painful to see the number of production lines that grind to a halt each year as a result of computer downtime. It’s even more painful to hear about the dollars manufacturing firms lose because of unscheduled stoppages.
Unfortunately, manufacturers across all industry sectors quite often adopt the attitude that ‘computer protection is an expense they can do without.’ Honestly, that’s pretty alarming. Granted, we appreciate that cost is always the deciding factor when it comes to big industrial buying decisions…
However, we shouldn’t walk away from providing you with the logical reason for investing in computer protection. Cost is no doubt your major sticking point when it comes to a buying decision over hardware protection, right?
