Why are you backing MMS?
Being a multi-topic manufacturing event, the show will bring together a host of different topics, best practice and new ideas focusing on the needs of manufacturing managers. This ensures MMS will allow us to speak face-to-face with many of the UK's manufacturing experts. Being a provider of business software developed specifically for the manufacturing industry, we’re backing MMS because throughout the day we’ll be able to network with a wide range of companies that we can help.
Why should manufacturing managers be aware of Datawright?
Quite simply manufacturing managers should be aware of Datawright because we are one-stop-shop for business systems, installation and support services designed specifically for the manufacturing market. At Datawright we pride ourselves on maintaining close working relationships with our customers, we know that they appreciate being able to talk to people they know and who understand their business.

It’s great to be introduced to new manufacturing companies at events such as the MMS to see if they too can be part of that journey.
What’s the most important super-power the manufacturing sector could be given and why?
For a multitude of reasons the ability to predict the future would be great for any manufacturing business! Having worked within the software industry for over 28 years, I know all too well that the future can’t be predicted, however the ability to do so would be nice. Due to the fact that nobody knows what’s around the corner, business continuity planning is in my opinion one of the most important, yet often over looked aspects of survival for any business.
You might be surprised to know that statistics suggest that the typical small to medium business runs a one-in-five chance of experiencing an IT failure over a five year period. What’s more, 40% of those businesses will then collapse, as a result. It would be great to have the super power to predict such disasters! If you haven’t been blessed with the psychic ability to predict when IT failure might occur, you could check out my latest blog post on business continuity.
