SPECTRIS PLC scenarios . Analytical simulation is about doing all of that without having to build a physical prototype and this significantly shortens the product development lifecycle time , saves cost and resources . “ For example , if a car manufacturer could take three years to go from design to production a large amount of that time is spent in physical testing . Anything we can do through digital simulations to reduce that cycle time saves our customers time and money . It ' s not just in the automotive industry but also in aerospace , pharma , and academia where people are trying to build things and they need to do this more quickly . They can use our sensors as part of their approach .”
Sustainability in cybersecurity But as Spectris precision instruments seek to help companies become the best , an invisible threat is always on Miller ’ s radar - that of an opportunistic cyberattack which could disrupt production and revenue .
“ I think businesses of all shapes and sizes have now come to realise that they ' re impacted by cybercrime . A day doesn ’ t seem to pass when you don ’ t see something in the news about a cyber attack . Although they tend to focus on larger organisations , all companies or people in some shape or form have been impacted by cybercrime .”
Miller points out that at Spectris they work on embedding a sustainable cybersecurity
