“Capabilities”—Measuring the supplier’s product, go-to-market and short-term business execution. “Strategies”—Measuring the supplier’s alignment with customer requirements in a 3-5 year time frame.
The IDC MarketScape’s evaluation of Critical Manufacturing resulted in the Company’s position in the “Leaders” Category.
