Building the Business Case: Identifying Criteria to Measure ROI for Metal Additive Manufacturing
For metal additive manufacturing, getting to ROI is more than just assessing the cost of the part. Manufacturers must look at how additive can impact the whole system—from part cost to product performance improvement to supply chain impact to new revenue streams. If manufacturers look only at the cost to make a part, they lose out on the larger ROI and potential new business opportunities additive can enable while competitors forge ahead.
