Why this matters now As explored in his recent article in Hydrocarbon Engineering magazine, Emerson’s Dave Denison—an expert with over 25 years in the automation industry—explains that many organizations are hitting diminishing returns from plant‑level digital transformation. While individual sites have improved safety, output, and efficiency, enterprise‑wide performance often plateaus due to inconsistent practices and […]

Embedded AI is the Future of Biopharmaceutical Recipe Creation

2026-04-28T12:00:01Z

Life sciences may be the ideal industry for the implementation of AI technologies. After all, bringing a treatment all the way through the drug development process is an extremely complicated undertaking, with tremendous amounts of data and a wide array of ever-changing variables to manage. Moreover, every step must be made with an eye on […]

Manufacturing Readiness Is the Next Frontier in Life Sciences AI

2026-04-20T13:00:09Z

AI is changing drug discovery faster than most people expected. Commercial manufacturing is next. The organizations best positioned for that shift are the ones preparing now, not because they’re behind, but because the window to prepare thoughtfully is exactly when things still feel calm. Insilico Medicine advanced a novel drug candidate for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis […]

Unifying Industrial Operations: How the Enterprise Operations Platform Accelerates Modernization

2026-04-09T12:55:57Z

Why this matters now As detailed in his recent article in Control Engineering, Emerson’s Brian LaMothe, a recognized industry expert, explains that operators can no longer rely on plant‑level improvements alone. The most competitive organizations are modernizing around an enterprise operations platform (EOP) built on boundless automation, software‑defined control, and seamless intelligence from the intelligent […]

Reinventing Process Control: Why Software‑Defined Architecture Enables AI‑Driven Operations

2026-04-02T12:16:12Z

Why this matters now As explored in his recent article in Smart Industry, Emerson’s Dave Denison—leveraging more than two decades of automation expertise—explains that AI, machine learning, and advanced control workloads are pushing traditional controllers beyond their limits. To prepare for an AI‑driven future, manufacturers must modernize with software‑defined architectures that deliver the compute power, […]

Part 2: Execution Intelligence: Embedding AI Inside Validated Manufacturing

2026-03-31T13:04:30Z

In Part 1, we explored why digital strategies that sit above operations break down in regulated life sciences manufacturing. When analytics are disconnected from validated execution, insight loses the context required to support quality, compliance, and release decisions. The next step is not abandoning enterprise data platforms—but evolving how, and where, intelligence is applied. From […]

Lifecycle‑Ready Industrial AI: How OT Teams Can Confidently Adopt Next‑Generation Intelligence

Part 1: Why AI in Life Sciences Must Be Grounded in Validated Execution

2026-03-26T13:57:05Z

The common digital strategy playbook is: unify the data, layer on AI, and drive enterprise-level insight. The strategy sounds compelling in its simplicity. And for some industries and some use cases, it can work. But in regulated life sciences manufacturing, there is a constraint that fundamentally shapes how intelligence must be applied: Manufacturing insight must […]

Building an OT-Friendly Path to Advanced AI

2026-03-17T12:15:28Z

Typically, when we think of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, we think of software residing in the cloud. After all, AI models require massive compute power, and as they grow, that power needs to scale rapidly. Such support is a perfect fit for cloud computing. However, as Sean Saul explores in his recent article in Control […]
