Wrike is using AI to power operational excellence
The American manufacturing sector’ s pursuit of Industry 4.0 excellence hinges on speed, visibility, and above all, actionable intelligence. As organizations invest heavily in automation and data capture, the next critical challenge is no longer collecting information but breaking down the silos that prevent it from driving production across complex, cross-functional teams.
This is the foundational challenge Wrike, the intelligent work management platform, has solved, earning it the Most Innovative AI Solution award in the inaugural Manufacturing Supplier Innovation Awards USA 2025. By delivering Wrike for Manufacturing, a unified platform that moves beyond isolated AI features, Wrike has created a central nervous system for work designed to accelerate innovation and achieve true operational excellence.
Connecting the enterprise for operational excellence
Wrike’ s core mission is elegantly simple yet profoundly impactful: to connect every department, from R & D and engineering to operations, quality, and supply chain, enabling them to pursue ongoing optimization within a single, secure platform.
“ Manufacturers face challenges like siloed teams, lack of real-time visibility, and manual processes that hinder speed,” explains Jamie Eckmier, Manufacturing Industry Lead at Wrike.“ Wrike addresses these by centralizing work, automating routine tasks, and providing actionable insights, helping teams collaborate seamlessly, standardize workflows, and drive operational excellence.”
This foundational capability makes Wrike much more than a project management tool; it acts as a central nervous system for manufacturing work. By unifying data, communication, and execution, it provides the single source of truth necessary to manage the complexity of product lifecycles, global supply chains, and demanding production schedules.
