Using Big Data to make Prysmian’s factories even more efficient
Meeting business needs with Artificial Intelligence solutions
FOS, or Fibre Ottiche Sud, produces about 50% of all the optical fibre made in Europe by Prysmian Group, and Prysmian is Europe’s largest producer of optical fibre.
“Reaching important results at FOS means to transform this initiative into a strategic program for Prysmian,” says Prysmian Group Chief Strategy Officer Fabio Romeo. “Thanks to this experience we will identify a portfolio of models and tools, the needed competences and the main operational requirements to replicate this solution in other plants.”
“This Digital Innovation Lab initiative will accelerate our journey towards a new data-driven culture: the Predictive Quality solution can complement our strong business expertise with data-based knowledge to confirm our business assumptions, filter historical bias and discover some ‘hidden’ insights,” says Prysmian Group Chief Digital Officer Stefano Brandinali.
“The goal is to produce a layer of Artificial Intelligence and obtain software that will be integrated in our production systems.
The project has a strong link with the plant’s business challenge. We don’t want to just enhance the value of data on its own. We want to meet business needs.”
