IoT Please: A Consumer’s Introduction to Integration with Kevin Williams of WISE Power

Safety, security, ethics and morals. For many companies, these issues sit in a gray area. Should the users and consumers bear the responsibility of these issues within IT? Or, rather, should the responsibility fall on the shoulders of the developers and distributors? In this episode, Kevin Williams, CEO of WISE Power, answers this question…

Safety, security, ethics and morals. For many companies, these issues sit in a gray area. Should the users and consumers bear the responsibility of these issues within IT? Or, rather, should the responsibility fall on the shoulders of the developers and distributors? In this episode, Kevin Williams, CEO of WISE Power, answers this question as well as introduces the concept of lifestyle management and what he believes is required for the future success of smart devices.

“As consumers we don’t want to have 15 different icons on our phone or another 15 different passwords to manage in our lives,” Williams said. “If you’ve got all these different smart devices – its great to having a Ring Doorbell, a Nest thermostat, a Samsung refrigerator, but its really helpful for consumers if you can make things simple. And there are other behind the scenes technologies that are available to help with that integration.”

The automation visibility gap: why FactoryOps is becoming the missing layer in manufacturing stacks

The automation visibility gap: why FactoryOps is becoming the missing layer in manufacturing stacks

FactoryOps is an emerging operations layer aimed at addressing the visibility gaps in heavily automated manufacturing environments. It operates alongside existing systems like PLCs and SCADA without replacing them. The goal is to enhance operational efficiency by closing existing blind spots that can negatively impact margins in automated plants.

93% of manufacturers have MES, but only 23% have fully integrated it across the enterprise

93% of manufacturers have MES, but only 23% have fully integrated it across the enterprise

A survey by Rockwell Automation highlighted that while 93% of manufacturers have adopted manufacturing execution systems (MES), only 23% have managed to fully integrate these systems across their enterprises. This lack of full integration limits the potential benefits of artificial intelligence and operational improvements. The findings reveal a significant integration gap that many manufacturers need to address to harness complete AI and operational value.

  • 0193% of manufacturers have adopted MES.
  • 02Only 23% of manufacturers have fully integrated MES across their enterprise.
  • 03The integration gap limits the potential benefits of AI and operational improvements.
