HP Inc. and Deloitte Consulting LLP have joined forces to accelerate the digital transformation of the global manufacturing industry, the companies said in a joint press release.
The two companies, who pegged the market at $12 trillion, said they will collaborate on the implementation of HP’s 3D printing systems in large-scale manufacturing environments to "help enterprises accelerate product design and production, create more flexible manufacturing and supply chains, and enhance efficiency across the manufacturing lifecycle."
The press release states that the joint venture "combine[s] HP’s award-winning Jet Fusion 3D Printing solutions and tools, industry-leading partner ecosystem, and heritage of driving digital industrial transformations together with Deloitte’s global client reach and deep manufacturing relationships, extensive digital operations experience, and proven success in supply chain transformation for some of the world’s largest companies."
“The Fourth Industrial Revolution is upon us," said Dion Weisler, president and CEO, HP Inc. "No sector of the global economy is undergoing more radical transformation than the $12 trillion manufacturing market.
“Companies investing in digital reinvention are poised to outpace their peers. Building on our disruptive 3D printing technology, together with Deloitte, we are focused on helping customers transform and win in this new era.”
Added Deloitte's Global CEO, Punit Renjen: “The digitalization of global manufacturing operations and practices will impact companies and consumers around the world, and 3D printing will play an important role in fundamentally changing manufacturing as we know it."
According to HP's VP of Communications, Noel Hartzell, the company's 3D printing solutions are being used by companies such as BMW Group, Jabil, Johnson & Johnson, Nike, as well as manufacturing service bureaus in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
“3D printing empowers design freedom and product personalization while delivering a digital thread to transform supply chains and open the door for distributed manufacturing,” said John Dulchinos, vice president of digital manufacturing at Jabil.
According to Jodie Stern, public relations, Deloitte, the consulting firm "has formed an ecosystem of digital collaborators, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Cloudera, Dassault Systèmes, Google Cloud, SAP, and Siemens, to help clients accelerate their digital transformations."
“We see enormous potential in the next generation of integrated product design, engineering, manufacturing and business innovations that elevate the voxel control and production-ready capabilities of HP’s Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing technology," said Tony Hemmelgarn, president and CEO, Siemens PLM Software.
3D printing has the potential to lower costs, increase production speed and flexibility, minimize distribution borders, and create entirely new markets worldwide, the press release states.
HP started selling its first 3D printers in December, according to Fortune.com.
