In the manufacturing industry, the stakes for cybersecurity are exceptionally high.
Manufacturers are frequent targets for cyberattacks due to the sensitive nature of their operations and the valuable data they handle.
With 24Flow built on Salesforce, our customers gain the benefit of a platform renowned for its robust security measures, allowing them to focus on their core business while Salesforce manages their data and platform security.
The manufacturing landscape is known for its volatility, with demand shifts and product variations requiring quick adjustments in processes and operations.
Salesforce's low-code/no-code environment addresses this need by enabling manufacturers to develop and modify applications quickly and with minimal coding.
This agility is crucial for industries where production customization and rapid response to market changes are required:
✓ Quickly Adapt Applications: Modify and enhance production and management systems in real-time to meet specific operational needs without deep technical expertise.
✓ Enhance Operational Agility: Implement changes that reflect new manufacturing processes or customization requests swiftly, keeping downtime to a minimum.
✓ Empower Non-Technical Users: Enable staff who understand the operational needs best, but who may not have formal programming skills, to contribute to the application development process.
✓ Reduce the strain on IT resources: Focus more on innovation and less on system maintenance.
24Flow is human-centered and creates a framework that fosters ownership on the shopfloor.
Salesforce isn't just a platform; it's a comprehensive ecosystem that supports a wide range of applications and solutions tailored for every discrete manufacturing company. By leveraging Salesforce, companies can facilitate all their operational needs end-to-end on a single platform, resulting in a cohesive 360-degree view of their entire business.
This integrated approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also boosts decision-making across all levels of the organization:
✓ Through an integration with Sales Cloud, sales people can quickly access the current state of production orders, without needing endless phone calls.
✓ Through an integration with Service Cloud, service agents will benefit from 24Flow’s production traceability to expedite problem resolution in the field.
✓ Through an integration with Experience Cloud, selective production information can be exchanged with other parties in the value chain.
✓ Salesforce’s powerful API and integration framework allows for a smooth integration with third party applications.
Salesforce’s cloud-based platform excels in providing unparalleled process flexibility for manufacturing companies operating across multiple sites and regions. With multi-site and multilingual capabilities, Salesforce enables make companies to tailor their core processes to local needs while maintaining a unified global overview.
