🏭 Why We Focus on SMEs

Digital transformation shouldn’t just be for the big players.

At Industry 4 Consulting, we exist to help small and medium-sized manufacturers harness the power of Industry 4.0 — without the jargon, bloated systems, or six-figure consulting fees.

Whether you’re a 10-person shop or a £10M business, we tailor every solution to fit your goals, capacity, and pace of change.


The SME Reality

You’re not a global enterprise — and that’s your strength. SMEs are:

  • ✅ More agile
  • ✅ Closer to their customers
  • ✅ Able to implement change faster

But they also face unique challenges that many digital providers overlook.


Challenges We Help SMEs Overcome

  • “We don’t have a big IT team.”
    → We focus on lightweight, low-maintenance solutions that can be run by your existing staff.
  • “We can’t afford to get this wrong.”
    → Our process is lean, phased, and measurable — no big risky deployments.
  • “We tried software before — it just created more admin.”
    → We help you optimise before you digitise, so tools simplify your process, not add complexity.
  • “We don’t know where to start.”
    → Our free readiness assessment shows exactly where you stand — and what to do next.

📈 Our Approach Is Built for SMEs

  • Practical, step-by-step transformation — not one-size-fits-all blueprints
  • Tools and platforms that scale as you grow
  • Support that fits your team’s skill level and culture
  • Training and adoption plans that stick — even with a small workforce

🤝 Real Results, Not PowerPoint Slides

Whether you’re looking to:

  • Connect your machines to a dashboard
  • Cut downtime or scrap
  • Reduce energy use
  • Automate manual reports
  • Upskill your team

We’re here to help you get there — efficiently, affordably, and without disruption.
