The efficiency and quality of manufacturing are closely linked to digitalization, responsible for boosting competitiveness, sustainability and innovation in companies and institutions.A essential agenda for debates, aspects related to digitalization will be widely addressed during the The 8th Manufacturing Forum the main event of the sector of the country, which will take place in Sao Paulo, between the 26th and 27th of August next, at the Novotel Sao Paulo Center Norte. The forum will have as its central theme “IA, predictive and analytical models and people at the heart of digitalization, driving the Brazilian industry”.
On the opening panel titled “Prospecting, strategic model and operation aligned to ensure a safe, balanced and competitive production management” it will be presented as the pharmaceutical segment, regardless of the differences in profiles of national industries, seeking greater efficiency, optimization of resources and skills to adapt to Industry 4.0. The fourth industrial revolution that is characterized by the development of fully interconnected and collaborative systems, using emerging technologies (Big Data, Internet of Things, Cyber-Physical Systems, Digital Twins and Artificial Intelligence) with the potential to revolutionize the pharmaceutical market, distribution chains and the quality of pharmaceutical products.
“I am confident that digital transformation in our sector will be decisive for sustainable health. It is necessary to focus on digital health, in particular, on the training of professionals in technology, on the integration of systems, efficient allocation of resources, union of sectors with converging guidelines, ethical conduct and in compliance with the” legislation, specifies Shirley Meschke M.

In lecture “Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence”, Joao Maia, director of AI strategies at Venturus, developer of technological solutions, will clarify why the creation of LLMs has brought a lot of power to users. LLMs (Large Language Models) are the types of artificial intelligence models created to understand and generate text. According to Maia, it is currently no longer necessary to use thousands of tools to capture, understand and transform data into information. AI reduces bureaucratic tasks and focuses on what matters: creating competitive differentials. “Understanding the functioning of Generative AI will provide valuable insights on productive optimization, as well as an important factor in the design of short-term strategies, Maia and medium-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-time-
In parallel sessions “HARM Strategic Manufacturing, Luiz Egreja, senior customer executive of Dassault Systemes, will discuss the complexity in industrial operations and the significant increase in the complexity of these operations, due to a number of factors involving the supply chain, proliferation of new products, lack of Human Resources to act in productive and complex processes. All these situations add to the impact on all business activities, from marketing to Human Resources. “We will emphasize the aspects that impact the manufacturing operations of companies, also evaluating other affected areas. To conclude, for each area within manufacturing, affected by the increased complexity, we will provide some ideas and recommendations based on our experience in Dassault operations and an impact on the end of the production.
Ariadne Garotti, VP & Managing Director of Efeso, will present the current importance of integrating all links of the value chain from end to end. In the past, there was only the focus on the factory or industrial processes; however, today the concern is directed from the beginning of the chain with the clear definition of the business strategy to the arrival of the product in the customer, in a fully integrated and synchronized way. “We will also expose how the digital platform can be a great ally in the efficiency of the value chain, bringing agility, real-time data and the concept of“menos paper” within the” operations, reiterates Ariadne.
Innovation 2 In parallel session “Boosting Order-to-Delivery Excellence” Rudiger Leutz, CEO, and Fabricio Sousa, Mobility Partner, both from Porsche Consulting will present how Order-to-Delivery is the main multifunctional business process 2 from end to end of a company to meet the needs of customers, in a more efficient and flexible way. The interaction between sales, production & logistics, purchasing, finance and development is fundamental. However, companies from all sectors face similar challenges with delivery performance. “A survey from Porsche Consulting shows that 48% of companies would like to have shorter delivery times, while all the production is lost in the same 191, to the delivery of the same.
“Such challenges require companies to adapt to react to changes in supply and demand contexts.In the lecture we will focus on the Order-to-Delivery methodology, which allows manufacturing to return to the requirements of flexibility and customization of products, through a stable and profitable operating model”, adds Sousa.
The digitization of the industry represents a transformation in the way companies operate and compete globally. This will be the subject of the “ lectureDigitalization of production: cases of increased industrial competitiveness through the relationship between ICT and companies”, in by Carlos Alberto Fadul Correa Alves, executive director of the Certi Foundation. “Practical examples of successful Foundation projects with companies will be explored, demonstrating how collaboration between Science and Technology Institutions (ICT) and industries boosts competitiveness through the implementation of Industry 4.0 projects.As a conclusion, we intend to demonstrate that the digitization of the industry is not only a trend, but a necessity for companies that wish to maintain their competitiveness in the global market. We emphasize that the technological challenge for the implementation of I4.0 technologies requires robust methodologies, partnership and collaboration to leverage digital transformation, promoting a more digital and efficient future for the Corves sector.
Jean Paulo Silva, COO & Chief Operating Officer of Dexco, will address “How to train, develop and retain talent with digital skills” at the end of the 8th Manufacturing Forum. According to him, training, developing and retaining talents with digital skills is crucial for any organization that wants to be competitive and innovative. “For this, we have some challenges that go through a mapping of the digital skills necessary (or potential) for the company, and by identifying talents with potential for the development of these skills.More than access to tools and technologies, professionals with digital skills need to have environments where they can be explored, harnessed and recognized”, explains Silva.
The 8th Manufacturing Forum will bring together the main executives of the segment and related areas, such as: consumer goods, aerospace, automotive, food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, textiles, machinery, parts and equipment, paper, manufacturing and process industries. It will also count with the presence of the sponsoring companies: Beckhoff, Tetra Pak, Tivit, Dassault Systemes, Sao Uol Compass, Porsche Consulting, Veolia, Westcon, SIV, Cogtive, Efeso, Venturus, Petro-One, Figurial Magazine, Compress, Brazilian Machinery and Electronic Equipment Association (Brazilian)
