Manufacturing operations are facing an "AI readiness gap" due to outdated data architectures that rely on delayed and aggregated information rather than real-time machine data. While significant investments have been made in ERP modernization, Industry 4.0, and AI, many AI initiatives underdeliver because they consume data that is summarized after events occur. A shift towards machine-centric architectures, which capture continuous streams of operational data directly from equipment, is crucial for AI to be effective and provide accurate insights into production quality, efficiency, and costs.
