6 STEPS TOWARD PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS SUCCESS
The journey toward smart manufacturing through digitalization can seem overwhelming when we find ourselves mired in too many parameters and variables to analyze and simply too much data.
Big Data gets bigger and soon we are swimming in our own data lake!
Often there are self-doubts as to the direction we are going, and we tend to have second thoughts about the end results. It starts to feel like we are boiling the ocean, especially if the results are not promising.
6 STEPS TOWARDS THE FACTORY OF THE FUTURE
The factory of the future represents a transformation from traditional automation to fully connected and flexible system using streams of data from connected operations. Production environments learn and adjust to new demands. Here is a framework of six key steps to guide you along that journey, regardless of a plant’s current maturity level.
