Manufacturing's Next Big Challenge Isn't Tech; It's Talent, Says Info-Tech Research Group
With Industry 4.0 evolving into the more human-centric Industry 5.0, manufacturers are facing a skills crisis and must confront expanding IT talent shortages. A recently published resource from global research and advisory firm Info-Tech Research Group offers industry insights and practical talent strategies to close these gaps and drive sustainable growth within the manufacturing sector. TORONTO, June 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Manufacturers are reaching a tipping point as the next wave of industrial innovation collides with a widening IT talent gap. As emerging technologies like AI, IoT, and real-time data analytics redefine production environments, organizations are finding it increasingly difficult to source professionals who can bridge deep technical knowledge with modern problem-solving and ethical foresight. To address this evolving challenge, Info-Tech Research Group has published research insights and advisory in a new blueprint, Understand and Assess IT Skills Gaps for Industry 4.0 & 5.0. The recently released resource from the global research and advisory firm offers manufacturing IT leaders a structured approach to uncover critical skills gaps and build resilient, innovation-ready teams. Why Traditional Approaches Are Falling Short Info-Tech's newly published research insights highlight the growing IT skills gap in manufacturing as the sector transitions from the automation-driven focus of Industry 4.0 to the more human-centered demands of Industry 5.0. "The convergence of digitalization and human-centric technologies has redefined the skills landscape, requiring proficiency in data analytics, cybersecurity, digital technologies, and human-robot interaction," says Shreyas Shukla, principal research director at Info-Tech Research Group. "However, traditional hiring and upskilling practices have failed to keep pace with the velocity of technological change, leaving manufacturers grappling with a mismatch between available skills and emerging needs."
