Exton-based Actemium Avanceon, an industrial automation and digital transformation company, recently released its DataOps approach to industrial data and analytics.
The approach was designed to help manufacturers improve how plant floor data is structured, contextualized and used within production environments.
The approach helps manufacturers build practical data capabilities over time as opposed to treating industrial data initiatives as large-scale transformation projects. It focuses on improving existing plant-floor data first before expanding into analytics, visualization, optimization, Unified Namespace initiatives, and artificial intelligence-enabled use cases as the data foundation matures.
“The issue is usually not a lack of data,” Matt Ruth, Actemium Avanceon CEO, said. “The challenge is making that data consistent, contextualized, and usable within the realities of day-to-day production operations. Dashboards and analytics tools only go so far if the underlying data does not reflect how the plant actually runs.”
Actemium Avanceon also offers ImpactNOW as part of its broader DataOps approach. ImpactNOW is a tool that helps manufacturers identify operational losses, variability, constraints, and improvement opportunities while establishing quantified return-on-investment cases and practical next steps in three to five weeks.
Actemium Avanceon helps industrial organizations improve operational reliability, resilience, visibility, and performance through integrated engineering, automation, and support services.
