Industrial environments run on a different set of constraints
than the typical enterprise office — physical risk, standalone
factory sites, and workflows where a fragmented handoff can cost
time, quality, or worse.
In this episode, Scot Burdette, Global CIO of Measurement &
Analytics at ABB, examines why industrial AI has to be built around
knowledge capture, human-in-the-loop oversight, and frontline
usability, and shares how ABB's own tools are helping a retiring
generation's expertise transfer to the workers replacing them, with
Emerj host Marilie Fouché.
He outlines the practical shift underway, from siloed, tribal
knowledge toward a shared operational data layer, and from pilots
that prove a concept to the design and implementation work that
changes how a factory runs.
