Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a gamechanger for manufacturers who want to servitize their business model and compete through outcome-based
services, instead of just products. To create highly scalable and profitable
services, manufacturers need to take advantage of the wide range of
opportunities AI offers.
But many manufacturers are lacking the expertise
and financial resources to develop and implement these AI solutions. To avoid falling behind with their business model transformation, manufacturers should consider sourcing AI externally. For many manufacturers, this is a daunting prospect.
This whitepaper explains through several AI use cases how important AI is for servitization, outlines the challenges and opportunities of external AI sourcing and provides a comprehensive roadmap to guide manufacturers’ AI sourcing journey.
