Implementing blockchain technology needs some more time to gestate.

Minimizing software incompatibilities will take some organization and planning.

Beyond the normal process measurements needed to check that production is on track, analytical instrumentation can track important variables that can keep difficult-to-control processes on track.

It wasn’t that long ago that a guru was needed to plan production for products based on manually recorded sales and inventory levels.

If you’ve ever played “Whac-A-Mole” on the boardwalk or at an arcade, you can get a sense of the frustration that both food and beverage processors and architecture/engineering/construction (AEC) firms are feeling in today’s economy—fix one problem, another pops up.

Packaging for alt proteins must be protective and creative to succeed.

Then, the system sounds an alarm, possibly shutting down the process until the problem—which AI has already identified—is remedied by humans. 

AI is a must to improve process quality, save energy and maintain equipment.
