Wrike Named “Best AI-Based Solution for Manufacturing” in AI Breakthrough Awards

By: via Business Wire

Program recognizes outstanding AI technologies and products; Wrike recognized for ability to help manufacturers optimize and accelerate product development process

Wrike, an intelligent work management platform, today announced that it has been named “Best AI-based Solution for Manufacturing” in the seventh annual AI Breakthrough Awards program conducted by Tech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global artificial intelligence (AI) market today.

“Wrike’s impact on our project management process has been significant, accelerating our journey towards operational excellence in manufacturing,” said Mike Fank, Operational Excellence, Quality, and Safety Manager at Wisconsin Metal Parts.

Manufacturing teams often struggle with alignment during the critical stages of product development, engineering testing, and early production. In addition, leaders often run into barriers when cross-functional teams lack the right processes or data to understand ownership across teams, where projects stand, and whether tasks are on track. Wrike was recognized for its ability to improve collaboration by aggregating and analyzing data from siloed applications and helping teams quickly access actionable insights powered by Wrike’s Work Intelligence® solution.

“For manufacturing leaders tasked with demonstrating continuous improvement, Wrike provides a single dashboard for documenting processes and tracking progress across technical and non-technical teams,” said Alexey Korotich, CPO at Wrike. “Not to mention, manufacturing teams are eager to introduce solutions that leverage AI to improve their workflows — 87% believe AI is vital to their company’s future success — and our Work Intelligence solution is up to the task.”

Wrike’s Work Intelligence solution is the key to scaling organizations fast by streamlining workflows, accelerating tasks, generating content, and enhancing communication. It’s powered by an industry-leading AI and automation engine based on human and artificial intelligence, and designed to improve organizations' efficiency and productivity across business functions. Features include:

Generative AI: Digest summaries across work items to surface the most important information for users to focus on; generate briefs, plans, and brainstormed ideas effortlessly; and construct on-message descriptions from scratch, tailoring them to match brand and personal voice.

AI automations: Identifies patterns based on user actions and provides recommendations, such as automating repeatable items or starting an approval.

AI search: Quickly search and find items, assets, tools, help articles, templates, and more just like your favorite search engine.

AI risk prediction: Automatically assesses a project’s potential for success, sends alerts, and recommends adjustments to improve project planning and increase the chance of timely completion.

AI mobile: Check updates, take action, and collaborate on your mobile device. Delegate actions with mobile voice commands.

AI recommended tasks: Prioritize work to ensure you’re focusing on the tasks that require the most attention first.

AI action items: Translate notes into action items, auto-create meeting notes, tasks, and more.

"Wrike quickly became an essential tool for Wisconsin Metal Parts, by automating processes and decreasing employees’ workloads,” said Fank. “Its intuitive dashboards allow us to easily prioritize tasks across sales, quality control, and product launches. And with automation and AI features, such as task reminders and content summaries, our workflows are faster and simpler, allowing our employees to do more of what matters.”

The mission of the AI Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the innovation, hard work, and success in a range of AI and machine learning-related categories, including Generative AI, Computer Vision, AIOps, Deep Learning, Robotics, Natural Language Processing, industry-specific AI applications, and many more. This year’s program attracted more than 5,000 nominations from countries throughout the world.
