Embrace Industry 4.0 with Klugo and NetSuite
Industry 4.0 in the 2020’s
Industry 4.0 stands as the fourth major industrial revolution, embodying the current wave of automation, AI and data exchange revolutionising manufacturing processes globally. This transformative era sees the convergence of cyber-physical systems, IoT (Internet of Things), Cloud Software, and cognitive computing, creating a highly integrated technological ecosystem that enhances efficiency, productivity, and innovation.
The Emergence of Smart Factories and Centralised Data in Australia
As Australia’s manufacturing sector moves towards Industry 4.0, Smart Factories are becoming more prevalent, presenting significant opportunities for innovative businesses. At the heart of a Smart Factory is the idea of centralising data, which means having clear visibility across the entire production line. This improved visibility not only helps with better customer service and increased sales but also makes it easier for staff to work together across different production areas and operations.
With cyber-physical systems monitoring and making decisions independently, Industry 4.0 brings in a new era of manufacturing where physical systems, powered by IoT technologies, communicate in real-time, both with each other and with humans via the wireless web. This connectivity extends to integrating the supply chain and ERP systems directly into the production line, paving the way for integrated, automated, and potentially autonomous manufacturing processes that optimise the use of capital, raw materials, and human resources.
Australian manufacturing is leading the way in this shift towards Industry 4.0, and Klugo, with over 13 years of experience in delivering cutting-edge technology and software solutions, plays a crucial role in helping businesses navigate this transformative journey. This move towards Industry 4.0 signifies a shift towards high-value, customised solutions, sustainable manufacturing practices, and seamless integration within global value chains, all made possible by the power of centralised data and the principles of Smart Factories.
Opportunities for Manufacturers of 4.0 Devices
As Australia’s manufacturing sector transforms Industry 4.0, the rise of Smart Factories presents unprecedented opportunities for new businesses. With the increasing demand for IoT sensors and devices to integrate into factories across the country, innovative companies are emerging to meet these needs. As these businesses grow and evolve, they require robust technology solutions to navigate the complexities of modern manufacturing.

NetSuite FSM to Integrate 4.0 Devices with Maintenance Services
Field Service Management (FSM) plays a crucial role in Industry 4.0 by integrating smart devices and IoT capabilities with maintenance services. This integration enables predictive maintenance, real-time monitoring of equipment performance, and proactive resolution of issues before they escalate.
NetSuite FSM simplifies maintenance processes, reduces downtime, and enhances overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) by leveraging IoT data and analytics. This digitisation of maintenance services optimises resource allocation, improves asset reliability, and, ultimately, drives operational excellence.
