Abstract
This Manufacturing Insights report provides IT budget benchmarks for
organizations to evaluate their own spending. Engineering-oriented value chains
(EOVCs) are characterized by segments that are driven by complex products, such
as in automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, farm/construction equipment,
and consumer durables.
"EOVC segments represent industries in the midst of tremendous change and
opportunity. Smart IT investment will be a major contributor for those
companies that realize success," said Bob Parker, VP Research at Manufacturing
Insights.
