we're also looking at, okay, is this going to be a product that we're going to manufacture to increase throughput and to increase efficiency? So that's kind of what drove us at my company to be able to go into some of this implementation. And then companies globally are now building structures whereby they can say, okay, we have a strategy for Industry 4.0, and then somebody's in charge of that, or somebody's the strategic lead for that. And kind of try to help to bring cross-functional team into it. So the primary purpose of Industry 4.0 is one, efficiency— improve efficiency and throughput. Because almost every business, if you're not, if you're not producing product as fast as you can, technically you're going to be out of business in a short time.
