Building Resilience Step by Step: Practical Adoption of Digital Twins

For many industrial and energy companies, the idea of deploying a full-scale digital twin across every asset can feel overwhelming. The reality, as highlighted during IIoT World Energy Day 2024, is that successful adoption doesn’t happen all at once—it happens incrementally. Start Small, Scale with Success A common message from industry leaders is: don’t try to do everything […]

How Digital Twins Deliver Clarity in Industrial Operations

In complex industrial and energy environments, clarity is often the hardest thing to achieve. Data flows in from thousands of sensors, but without context, it risks turning into a data swamp—volumes of information that overwhelm rather than guide. At the IIoT World Energy Day 2024, industry experts highlighted how digital twins are becoming essential tools […]

Regulatory Compliance and ICS Security: What Manufacturers Need to Know Now

Industrial control systems (ICS) are the backbone of modern manufacturing—but they’re also becoming prime targets for cyberattacks. With 70% of manufacturers facing attacks each year and average downtimes lasting 24 days, the cost of inaction is too high to ignore. That’s why regulatory compliance and ICS security are no longer optional—they are essential for operational resilience and business […]

Scaling Smart Manufacturing with IIoT, ML, and Generative AI

Talk to any plant manager and you’ll hear the same frustration: too many proofs of concept, not enough results. The real opportunity isn’t running another pilot—it’s building scalable systems that deliver measurable value every day. That’s where Industrial IoT (IIoT), machine learning (ML), and now generative AI (GenAI) are starting to prove their worth, not in isolated demos but across […]

Agentic AI Isn’t a Product – It’s an Integrated Business Strategy

Everyone’s talking about AI. From pilot projects and co-pilots to promising dashboards, artificial intelligence is cropping up left and right in manufacturing. What’s rare, however, are wide-scale implementations that deliver measurable results on the factory floor. In fact, IDC estimates that 88% of proof of concept (POC) projects fail to make it out of the […]

Factory Expertise, Now Scaled by AI

Every factory depends on expertise — the intuition of a technician who can hear when a nozzle is misaligned, or the experience of an engineer who can trace yield loss back to a single feeder. But that expertise is disappearing fast, even as machines generate more diagnostic data than ever before.This new white paper, GenAI, Operational […]
