CES has always been a mirror of what’s next. Not just shiny tech, but signals — early indications of how industries will actually change. And at CES 2026, Siemens isn’t just showing technology. They’re showing outcomes. That’s why the Siemens booths are high on my must-see list this year.Across three distinct experiences — Siemens Intelligence Experience […]

AI, prescriptive maintenance, and edge analytics are reshaping how process plants run. Yet the gap between a successful pilot and full-scale impact rarely closes on technology alone. The differentiators are culture, operating model, and data foundations.Build versus partner: keep the core, rent the niche Keep in-house: architecture, data governance, cybersecurity, product ownership, and integration with […]

Industrial AI learns from history — but in most plants, that history is a mess.Behind every AI pilot, there’s a decade of process data, maintenance logs, and scanned reports that were never designed to work together. (Explore what document-first RAG means from Adlib.) These systems contain the experience of the plant — what failed, what […]

For the past few years, manufacturers have heard the same message on repeat: AI is ready for industry. But a quieter question is now being asked inside control rooms and boardrooms alike — is industry ready for AI?At this year’s Honeywell User Group in The Hague, that question came into focus. Beneath the enthusiasm around artificial intelligence […]

At Infinite Uptime’s CXO Circle in Bangkok, the discussion around industrial AI felt different. The room was filled with people who run plants. They weren’t asking whether AI belongs in manufacturing anymore. They were asking how to make it work reliably, across complex environments where every process, every asset, and every operator matters.The consensus was […]

In plants that run around the clock — refineries, chemical complexes, cement kilns — the path to lower emissions doesn’t begin with a new reactor or a carbon pledge. It begins with data. Yet the one piece of data the industrial world still struggles to capture accurately is product-level carbon intensity — the actual emissions embedded in every […]

Standard operating procedures and interlocks are the backbone of safe, reliable plant operations. They codify best practices, enforce safeguards, and prevent known mistakes from cascading into incidents. Yet some failure modes still hide in plain sight—especially where human actions and manual configurations intersect with automated protections. A recent near-miss on a critical gear pump shows […]

The manufacturing sector faces a persistent tension: should organizations build all digital capabilities in-house or leverage external partners? The answer, increasingly, is neither—it’s both, strategically combined.The Cost of Doing Everything YourselfMany industrial leaders assume that maintaining complete control over digital transformation requires building every capability internally. This approach creates hidden costs that compound over time. […]

Walk into any plant, and within minutes, you can tell if reliability runs deep or if it’s just a slogan on the wall. You don’t need a report to see it—you can feel it.As Amit Khanna, VP of Business Excellence at Tata Steel Thailand, puts it, “Housekeeping is the first thing.” A clean, organized plant signals that […]
