The auto parts manufacturing sector has rebounded and is on a healthy growth trajectory, according to research by ACMA. Leveraging digitization is the only way to maintain this growth, gain a competitive advantage, reduce costs, and expand margins.

Digitization can be challenging for small and mid-sized auto parts manufacturers, which constitute a major part of this sector. WeRise is a dedicated platform created by HP to handhold this sector and help them gear up for this and become future-ready.
