When IT and OT Departments Get Together: Success Stories from Modern Manufacturers

February 23, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Free

Manufacturing managers face deadlines, quality metrics and output KPIs that hold them accountable for everything in operations. As manufacturing in an organization gets more connected to other business and organizational systems, the IT and OT data worlds are converging. But surprisingly, according to a survey by Hitachi Vantara and IndustryWeek, IT often feels like the group that gets in the way of that success, not the ones enabling better performance. Understanding and navigating the operational and cultural differences between the groups’ attitudes is critical to getting the most out of cutting-edge manufacturing advances.

Join this webinar to learn from modern-day examples of how various industrial organizations have achieved breakthrough business and process improvements by embracing that convergence of IT/OT data systems. In this session, you will learn:

  • Real-life success stories from a vast range of manufacturers:
    • A sheet metals producer that adopted analytics from IoT and video to raise operational efficiencies
    • A mining operator that raised production by $35-40M in revenue starting in year 1.
    • A heavy equipment manufacturer that switched to offering Predictive Maintenance-as-as-Service
  • Typical data integration challenges and solutions for manufacturers
  • Generating breakthrough results by converging IT & OT, regardless of organizational size or complexity
