6　您是否为数字化做好准备？

实施数字化制造和运营对财务具有重要影响，因为新技术增强了自动化、控制力，从而也提高了质量。在您的企业准备开展数字化革新时，请考虑以下问题：

根据当前的全球经济框架，您的企业如何重新思考并重新设计采购和制造业务，以及整个价值链网络？在做出这些重要决策或持续寻求低成本劳动力解决方案时，您是否会考虑总体交付成本？

广告：个人专属 VPN，独立 IP，无限流量，多机房切换，还可以屏蔽广告和恶意软件，每月最低仅 5 美元

您如何利用大数据和先进的分析能力对运营颠覆和客户需求的变化做出即时应对？

您的企业在多大程度上采用特定的数字化运营战略，其中包括新时代技术的部署，例如物联网和机器人？

您的企业为何不愿意实施最新技术，尤其是能够提高运营效率、改进客户体验并推动创新的技术？如何消除障碍？

您的企业如何重新配置并留住全球人才资源（企业内部和整个合作伙伴网络），以支持数字化制造和运营？
