Manufacturing AI initiatives hampered by outdated data architectures

Manufacturing operations are facing an "AI readiness gap" due to outdated data architectures that rely on delayed and aggregated information rather than real-time machine data.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. AI
