Smart Manufacturing Cluster of Northeast Ohio
To remain competitive in a global economy, innovation will become increasingly important to how we manufacture, including the products we produce and the processes we employ. The industrial internet of things offers an opportunity to gain a competitive advantage and improve the growth trajectory of your Ohio manufacturing company.
Smart Manufacturing IIoT Roadmap
IIoT could have an economic impact of $4 to $13 billion in Northeast Ohio by 2025
Based on calculations utilizing McKinsey Global Institute Data and Accenture estimates, IIoT’s application in a factory setting such as IIoT in the manufacturing sector has the potential to grow our region’s economic impact beyond the current projection of $49 billion to as high as $62 billion by 2025.
See why IIoT is a game-changer for Northeast Ohio and your business
Global competitors are taking action against this game-changing technology.
IIoT can improve:
- Operating efficiency
- Predictive maintenance

In November 2018, Team NEO, with the help of its Working Group, completed a Smart Manufacturing IIoT Roadmap for Northeast Ohio to identify the opportunity, impact and path forward for implementation of IIoT in Northeast Ohio.
Smart Manufacturing IIoT Readiness Assessment
Where is your company on the industrial internet of things journey?

The focus of the assessment is on key readiness indicators, including:

- Workforce readiness
- Digital maturity
All survey responses are confidential, complimentary and returned to those surveyed to provide a high-level assessment of your organization’s readiness to adopt IIoT solutions, and how your readiness compares to the overall manufacturing industry in Northeast Ohio.
