After COVID-19: A New Reality

During the COVID-19 pandemic, everyone in the world had to rethink everything, from grocery shopping to doctors’ appointment. They also had to alter how they do business. Manufacturing and process facilities were no different. For example, many facilities limited or eliminated on-site visits and troubleshooting assistance. Several trade publications have documented the many ways the industrial sector is dealing with the pandemic, including Pumps & Systems, Plant Services, and Plant Engineering.
