How 3 Top Manufacturers Simplify Multiple Plant Operations With ERP
Capturing real-time data in all areas of the business is vital for maintaining long-term success. When manufacturers conduct business with separate systems, data end up in silos, and information can’t flow in an efficient manner.
Gen AI Models Help Create Breakthrough Materials

The researchers applied their technique to generate millions of candidate materials consisting of geometric lattice structures associated with quantum properties. The kagome lattice, represented here, can support the creation of materials that could be useful for quantum computing.
Artificial intelligence models that turn text into images are also useful for generating new materials.
Why Your Team Fails To Use Gen AI Effectively
In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, generative artificial intelligence (gen AI) has emerged as a transformative force, reshaping industries and redefining operational paradigms.

Recent developments in thermal signature analytics have expanded the applications of thermal cameras beyond routine troubleshooting; they now contribute to paper machine control, energy usage benchmarking, wet streak detection, and the identification and prediction o
How to Choose a Connected Worker Platform That Actually Works
In manufacturing, the term connected worker has quickly gone from emerging concept to executive mandate. As companies grapple with turnover, skill gaps, and increasing complexity, the urgency to modernize frontline work has never been clearer.
Shock to the System: Reviving Decision-Making in a VUCA World
Your market is shifting, your competitor just pulled ahead, and the one person who could execute the next move has resigned. You can’t get more data fast enough, yet the window to act is closing.
Buy, Boost, or Build?
Organizations are eager to benefit from generative artificial intelligence.
Rethinking Purpose: When Organizations Stop Having and People Start Being
In this article I’m looking at the notion of organizational purposes in light of cybernetic constructivism. The ideas here are inspired by giants like Stafford Beer, Spencer Brown, Ralph Stacey, Werner Ulrich, Russell Ackoff, and Erik Hollnagel.
