Beancounters at Anvizent have done a survey and discovered that senior managers in mid-sized manufacturing firms value their data more than tangible assets.
The survey of 100 companies showed that the managers looked after £120 million worth of data. This figure was calculated using the average value of business assets in manufacturing (£599 million) and the percentage of respondents who identified data as being the most valuable business asset in the company (20 percent).
