Manufacturing analytics fuses OT (sensors, machines) and IT (ERP, finance, HR) on a unified, cloud “single source of truth” to turn real-time data into action. It cuts unplanned downtime (a drag ~11% of revenue; in complex lines $2M+ per lost hour), boosts productivity, lowers costs, and improves safety. Modern platforms replace manual clipboards with automated collection, AI models, and dashboards. Key use cases: demand forecasting, predictive maintenance/monitoring, warehouse/inventory, production planning, supply chain, error detection/quality, throughput optimization, workforce and warranty analysis, product development (digital twins/GenAI), and customer analytics. NetSuite ties these streams together for faster decisions and competitive advantage.
