This cyber attack will probably result in a doubling down of the same technology that put them into this position. Perhaps, in addition, they should look for a lower tech fall back approach.

The difference between less (manual) & more (computerized) efficiency is probably less important than the difference between stopping & continuing operations, in exceptional times.
Waffle House and Home Depot (among others) are pretty good at internalizing this, and have processes for running on shoestrings, but still running, until normal support can be restored.

May I ask why you want to know, and what you will do with this information?
Sure. The reason I asked was that I just want to get a feeling for who all you folks are. Also since I live in Horten it would have been the closest one I knew except people at work.
As for what I want to do with the information I guess it depended on the answer, but probably nothing.
