How IT strategy drives competitive advantage in traditional industries.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how traditional industries, like manufacturing, can keep up with digital transformation. A friend of mine works for a family-run factory that recently started using custom IT solutions to optimize their supply chain. It wasn’t easy for them to shift from their old manual processes, but now they’re seeing real results—better efficiency, fewer errors. Makes me wonder, how much of a difference does a solid IT strategy really make for companies like that?
