In the manufacturing sector, Time to Value is a fundamental parameter, governing the relationship between customers and suppliers. Since, as is often the case in the world of terms borrowed from the English-speaking market, the definition has several facets, we specify that in this article we will deal with outward<\/em> Time to Value, that is, the time taken by customers to receive, perceive and put into revenue the added value of our products. <\/p>\n

Why is Time to Value so important?<\/h3>\n

As we have already pointed out, market changes are increasingly abrupt, even in industries with a strong conservative connotation such as manufacturing. This means that while customer loyalty used to be able to somewhat make up for inefficiencies along the value chain, today competition and market changes have exponentially elevated the risk of abandonment <\/strong>by old and new customers. <\/p>\n

This implies that even parameters that were once secondary, such as the difficulty of adopting our products, are now critical. In other words, if our solution is more \u201cdifficult\u201d or \u201claborious\u201d than that of competitors or the market average, customers are very likely to abandon it. <\/p>\n

The concept of Time to Value originated in digital services, where the absence of a material counterpart makes customer volatility very high, but because of increasingly fluid markets and increasingly agile systems it is extending to industries such as manufacturing.<\/p>\n<\/div>

How smart manufacturing supports and improves Time To Value<\/h2>\n

If our company has already embarked on a digital transformation process or is about to embark on one, there are some considerations regarding the interaction with Time to Value that are worth considering. For as we know, one of the prerogatives of smart manufaturing is precisely to compress inefficiencies and improve flexibility<\/strong>. Opportunities that can also be reflected in a virtuous way in the relationship with customers. Let’s look at some of the main aspects in which a smart manufacturing supply chain can support improved time to value.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
