The data awakening - how to turn every byte of data into a strategic asset   Data presents businesses with one of the biggest opportunities for growth, innovation, reinvention, and scale. The world generates over 2.5 quintillion bytes of data daily, yet this goldmine of opportunity is too often trapped in silos, hiding untapped value, unseen insights, and unexplored AI potential.  Despite the opportunities presented by data and AI, too many industries still grapple with outdated data practices. Companies that do this are leaving significant value on the table.  One of the biggest issues that industry faces in this regard is fragmented data systems. Data that is siloed across disparate platforms and departments hinders the accessibility of that data. It also creates inefficiencies when it comes to managing and analyzing data.   Industry is leaving value on the table   But for leaders in industry, making sense of the sheer volume of data can be overwhelming. “While 74% of firms say they want to be data-driven, only 29% are actually good at connecting analytics to action,” researchers at Forrester say. This gap points to a disconnect – most asset intensive businesses are not able to liberate the potential in all that information because they can’t transform data into actionable insights.  “Most industrial organizations are data-rich but insight-poor. They've invested millions in sensors and monitoring systems but struggle to convert this raw information into actionable intelligence that drives material business outcomes,” says Keith Kirkpatrick, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research.  Industry experts call this the “industrial data paradox,” because industry is simultaneously collecting more data than ever before but is extracting less proportional value.   Businesses are losing almost a third of their annual revenue   The financial implications of this are worrying; the failure to effectively collect, manage and process data comes at great cost. “Companies that fail to leverage data effectively risk losing 20-30% of their annual revenue,”  a report by McKinsey reveals.     These losses manifest in different ways:     Operational inefficiencies:  Decision-makers are unable to identify and address inefficiencies without a unified view of operations. Increased downtime, higher maintenance costs, and reduced productivity are the consequence.  Missed opportunities:  It is difficult, if not impossible, to identify new opportunities for growth and innovation when data is fragmented. A good example of this is predictive maintenance insights. When data is accessible and actionable, businesses can produce predictive maintenance insights that reduce downtime and extend the lifespan of machinery.  Regulatory risks:  In the pharmaceutical and energy industries, which have strict regulatory requirements, the inability to effectively manage data can lead to compliance issues and potential fines.  Data has long been a silent partner in business because it is often underutilized and misunderstood. But a new era is dawning – one where data is not just a byproduct of operations, but a transformative force that will disrupt inefficiencies to power unparalleled optimization.   At Radix, we call this shift ‘The Data Awakening.’ Why? Because we believe that every byte of data holds the potential to revolutionize how industries operate, innovate, and compete.  The Data Awakening has arrived   The awakening speaks to a time in industrial operations where every byte of data drives strategic decisions. To realize this vision, industry needs to embrace technological advancement. Equally important, to enable The Data Awakening, companies must make a cultural shift to making data-driven decision-making the norm. This is possible with a partner like Radix at your side.  Radix is already driving this transformation for industries around the world, guiding businesses towards a future where data is not just collected but harnessed for operational excellence. We do this to ensure the businesses we partner with are more profitable, sustainable and competitive in a volatile and unpredictable world.  The key to unlocking the full potential of data lies in real-time, contextual insights. Unlike traditional data analysis, which often involves retrospective reviews, real-time insights enable proactive decision-making. In industry, think of real-time machine monitoring that alerts operators to potential issues before they escalate, to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.    Contextualization is just as important. Let’s face it: data without context is noise. By interpreting data in the context of specific business goals and challenges, decision-makers within industry can take informed actions that drive better outcomes.    Insights that drive growth in uncertain times   The Data Awakening is the shift that visionary industrial leaders are taking today, to create value in an ambiguous, uncertain and volatile world. By embracing real-time insights and actionable intelligence, decision-makers in companies can disrupt long-held inefficiencies and unlock new paths to innovation and growth.   To realize the true potential of data, companies in asset-intensive sectors like oil and gas, energy, manufacturing, and the infrastructure and services sector, must achieve two critical goals:   Unlock Data for Real-Time Insights: Enable operators, engineers, and data scientists to work with a unified understanding of the production landscape.   Simplify Operations:  Use innovative technologies and strategies to enhance efficiency throughout the production lifecycle.   At Radix, we are committed to awaken to the full potential that data brings for our partners and clients in industry. By breaking down data silos and providing real-time, contextual insights, Radix empowers enterprises to turn every byte of data into a strategic asset. More so, it enables the asset-intensive companies we work with to accelerate, optimize and scale like never before.  Do you want to stay connected with Radix?

Key insights on driving profit in Asset Intensive Industries   There is a journey taking place in boardrooms and plant floors across the globe. Regardless of industry if you have assets, you have data, and optimizing operations means optimizing the way you leverage real-time insights from your data to drive production and lower costs.   According to Gartner , CIO, CEO, and business unit leaders in asset-intensive sectors, “must coordinate to ensure alignment of IT investments with business outcomes like product excellence, operational excellence, customer engagement or risk avoidance.”   At the same time, government agencies are also pressuring these same leaders and companies to create a more sustainable impact for our environment. For C-levels, the aim is to convert revenue into profit by reducing operational costs, in many ways by prolonging asset lifespan - and enhancing production output. The achievement of these objectives is contingent upon an organization’s capacity to drive asset performance management and reach operational excellence.  For asset-intensive industries aiming to maximize efficiency, minimize downtime, and optimize production, focusing on operational efficiency through Next-Gen Asset Performance Management is paramount. This involves leveraging immediate strategies to do more with less - and targeting areas ripe for improvement and quick acceleration.   So, what happens now?   Achieving the goal of Next-Gen Asset Performance Management, however, it is easier said than done.   Staying afloat depends on:  Achieving a deep exploration of the challenges and obstacles encountered at each stage, along with identifying best practices and solutions that enhance overall asset performance.  Diving into the key solutions that impact asset performance management and effective data integration.   Navigating the currents and tides to pull out your sunken data – rescuing profits and delivering a safer and more sustainable operating environment throughout your lifecycle.  You need an operational lifeguard.   Lifeguard On Duty   Radix helps asset-intensive companies achieve a comprehensive asset management system. We ensure all aspects of asset performance, including maintenance schedules, inventory management, and workforce planning to streamline operations and improve overall efficiency.   By centralizing information and automating manual processes, we help companies remove siloes and reduce the risk of human error. We help ensure that assets are running at peak performance, despite the ever-increasing demands and complexities in any asset intensive industry. We also make sure companies adopt innovative technologies and strategies that bolster reliability and performance.    Through the utilization of technology, data analytics, and best practices, companies scale and extend the lifespan of their assets, boost productivity, and cut costs.  Predicting Rough Waters   One of the biggest challenges that Radix helps asset-intensive companies with is overcoming aging infrastructure. As equipment and assets age, they are more prone to breakdowns and failures, leading to costly downtime, maintenance issues, and often, mishaps.  A crucial aspect of asset performance management is data analytics. With the vast amount of data generated by sensors, equipment, and production processes, companies can utilize artificial intelligence (AI), advanced analytics, and machine learning algorithms to gain intelligence to make data-driven decisions to optimize operations.  Employing a data-driven approach empowers asset-intensive companies to anticipate failures before they occur, proactively addressing issues and avoiding costly downtime.  The Rising Tide that Optimizes all Operations   Radix recently facilitated the digitalization journey of a global, U.S.-based company by spearheading an initiative that involved transitioning the company from manual tools and spreadsheets to a digital platform.   As part of the reengineering endeavors, Radix developed AI programs aimed at enhancing processes, accelerating their digital journey in a way that was tailored to optimize their entire operations.

The cost of unplanned downtime for industrial manufacturers is estimated at $50 billion a year. Preventative maintenance isn’t enough. Boeing found that 85% of all equipment fails at random, regardless of the amount of preventative maintenance, while the Arc Advisory group reported that 82% of failures cannot be bypassed using traditional equipment monitoring.  It’s a challenging expense, but as artificial intelligence (AI) and smart tools evolve, predictive maintenance is becoming increasingly invaluable.  Research published in the CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology found that predictive maintenance could reduce scheduled repairs by up to 12%, decrease maintenance costs by up to 30%, and predict almost 70% of equipment failures before they occurred3. These numbers, particularly for asset-intensive operations, translate directly to bottom-line performance.   Looking beyond the reaction   Traditional maintenance approaches typically fall into two categories: reactive (fix it when it breaks) and preventative (scheduled maintenance regardless of an asset’s condition). Both have drawbacks – reactive maintenance leads to expensive emergency repairs and unplanned downtime while preventative maintenance often results in unnecessary work on functional equipment.  What predictive maintenance adds to this mix is a fresh new layer of efficiency. It changes the paradigm entirely as it uses real-time data to determine the actual condition of equipment and predict the best time for maintenance to be performed. This approach minimizes downtime while still maximizing the lifespan of assets. It removes the risks and complexities that traditional methods add to the mix by turning maintenance into an active solution as opposed to a passive reaction.  The data advantage: How information becomes insights   Modern predictive maintenance platforms can transform operations by transforming real-time operational data to a platform of choice. These predictive tools empower technical teams to understand the data and the contextual information that relates to the data – this is information usually only provided to engineers and operators on the factory floor, but now in a more digestible format it can be used to make rapid and relevant decisions that can transform maintenance efficiency.  Tools designed to provide companies with these insights need the right levels of data and insights to ensure they meet targets. When data scientists gain access to both machine data and operational context, they can develop more accurate predictive models that address real-world expectations and conditions rather than theoretical scenarios.  But what does this mean for the organization?  It means that the models and solutions developed to provide predictive maintenance schedules and data analytics are capable of delivering exceptional visibility into facilities, assets and systems. Effective predictive maintenance programs include:  Comprehensive data collection – sensors are capable of capturing critical parameters that include vibration, temperature, pressure and other essential operational metrics. These metrics can be adapted to suit unique and specialized operating environments.  Advanced analytics – machine learning algorithms can analyze the data to identify the patterns that precede equipment failure.  Domain expertise  – engineering knowledge that helps to interpret algorithmic findings in the context of real-world operations.  Actionable insights – maintenance recommendations that fit into existing workflows and scheduling constraints.  The right approach connects all these elements into a cohesive ecosystem that bridges the gap between operational technology and information technology. And that ensures information flows smoothly throughout the systems to ensure the data collected results in the correct maintenance action.   It’s a Connected Future   Predictive technologies are constantly maturing and evolving, particularly as technologies such as AI and ML continue to become more accessible, cost-effective and invaluable. Ongoing integration with other digital transformation initiatives will amplify their impact, especially when aligned with solutions such as digital twins – these virtual replicas of physical assets are increasingly combined with predictive maintenance to provide even deeper visibility into systems and asset performance.  These evolutions and innovations represent a fundamental shift in how companies manage their assets as they move from isolated maintenance functions towards integrated operational excellence. Predictive maintenance, with its immediacy and relevance, is fast becoming a strategic necessity as it saves on costs, time and downtime while providing significant operational benefits.  To get started on your operational journey towards predictive and scalable operations, contact Radix today at Connect with us | Radix.

By: Citalouise Reyes-Geiggar, PhD   "Transform business models and customer experiences or risk becoming obsolete,” reports InformationWeek. The digital IT news analysis and commentary site cites experts who estimate that companies that don’t act on digital transformation (DX) and still rely on manual processes can lose up to 30% of potential revenues. With customer expectations rising, outdated operations cause frustration and fail to deliver, leading to losses.  The hidden cost of doing nothing   Maintaining the status quo is an expensive risk as companies lose momentum and ground, particularly to those organizations willing to invest in DX. Playing it safe in 2025 has become one of the biggest risks a company can take because change and disruption have become the norm, especially in this economy where politics play a role, which many don’t care to admit.   Companies that can’t play in a radically changing playground will be left sitting in the sand. Some of the biggest consequences of inaction include:  01: Lost revenue and market position   Think of old school Blockbuster. The company did exactly what Netflix did – sold hardcopy movies to consumers. What the company didn’t do, which Netflix did, was reinvent itself. Netflix reimagined an entire industry, and now, Blockbuster is a memory. The lesson here is to take action over hesitation when digital is set to reimagine what your industry can do because your competitors will. Everyone is taking the next leap. Have you heard of Agentic AI? Thats going to be my next topic.   02: Eroding customer confidence   Customers expect personalized, seamless interactions and without current systems to deliver those interactions and experiences, companies risk losing them. What the discerning, modern customer wants is a company that meets their values and connects with their aspirations while ensuring consistent service delivery.  03: Talent drains and operational inefficiencies   When your workforce doesn’t have access to technology that enhances or empowers their roles, or when they are consistently struggling with limited resources and complex systems, they lose interest. It’s demoralizing to work within a company that isn’t progressing, and the result is a high employee turnover rate. The flip side of this coin is that maintaining outdated systems is increasingly expensive and time-consuming. Rising renewal fees, pricey add-ons and the cost of professional services are required to keep these systems operational.  Breaking the paralysis   To stay ahead, Gartner recommends that businesses follow the top digital transformation trends of 2025, outlined by the US research and advisory firm:  AI-Driven Autonomy: Although Agentic AI will revolutionize productivity by allowing autonomous systems to perform intricate tasks, it necessitates strong ethical guidelines to reduce risks.  Responsible AI Adoption: Because regulations vary by location, AI governance platforms are essential for overseeing compliance, openness, and confidence.  Trust-Centric Security: To prevent fraud and safeguard brand integrity, disinformation security emerges as a frontline defense that combines identity validation and adaptive learning.  The bottom line? Businesses need to step away from inaction towards investment into technologies that create added value, support business growth, and innovation. This means breaking out of traditional approaches and moving into a more dynamic mindset. This can be achieved by:  Collaborating with a technology partner, who is literally on the ground and understands your industry and your objectives so you can experiment with reversible technologies and decisions to find your sweet spot. This approach allows you to experiment without becoming paralyzed by analysis.  Place purpose at the center of DX to ensure your technology investments are connected and add value for the business, your employees, and your customers. The CMO is central to this shift as the role brings a wider view of how technology can create true value at scale.  Leverage the CMOs unique skillset and mindset to build a DX strategy that embraces the test and learn approach and that allows for the business to incrementally evolve without being left behind.  Companies can’t afford inaction. DX may come with complexities and challenges of its own, but ignoring it is a risk that grows more expensive with every passing day. The question for organizations shouldn’t be whether or not you can afford to transform, but how to manage transformation within budgets, to achieve strategic goals, and improve customer expectations.   Today, the cost of doing nothing can be the highest price your company will ever pay. Trust the process and don’t be afraid to take action.  Learn more by contacting me or visit  www.radixeng.com .
