The discrete manufacturing solution built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central has been named “Most Disruptive Technology in the Production Process” at the Advanced Manufacturing Madrid trade fair.
COSMO CONSULT has won the “Most Disruptive Technology in the Production Process” category at the Advanced Manufacturing Awards 2026. The jury’s decision recognises COSMO Discrete Manufacturing ERP, the company’s industry solution for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
The award was presented at Advanced Manufacturing Madrid, the industrial trade fair held in the Spanish capital on 4 and 5 November. It honours the most innovative technologies that integrate best into the manufacturer’s value chain.
This year’s win carries particular weight. A record 73 finalists competed across seven categories covering innovation along the entire industrial value chain. The expert jury’s assessment accounted for 80% of the final score, with the public vote making up the remaining 20%.
Technology built for discrete manufacturing
COSMO Discrete Manufacturing ERP extends Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with functionality tailored specifically to the needs of discrete manufacturers. It enables companies to manage their production processes end to end, while laying the technological foundation for digitalising and optimising operations across the business.
Machinery, plant and equipment manufacturers can run their core processes – from sales to invoicing – in a single system. Key capabilities include a product configurator, dynamic bills of materials for individual orders, concurrent engineering and production, and real-time job costing.
The award reflects COSMO CONSULT’s ambition to develop modern technology that helps industrial companies streamline their processes, build on reliable data and move towards more digital, connected and competitive manufacturing.
“This award underlines our commitment to innovation in industry. Our goal isn’t just to digitalise processes. We also want to help manufacturers transform the way they work, optimise their operations and put technology to targeted use so they can become more efficient and competitive,” says Jordi Padró, Managing Director of COSMO CONSULT Spain.
