Just in time for Valentine's Day, it turns out that the hottest matchmaker in manufacturing isn't a bow-and-arrow-carrying diaper-wearer – it's artificial intelligence. With Production Health, we can start playing digital Cupid by bringing together factory departments that have usually just given each other the cold shoulder.
The journey to perfect production has long been a challenging quest for manufacturers. Total Production Maintenance (TPM) has been a path for many – and many get lost. But now, finally, the knowledge and Industry 4.0 tools exist to make it viable, according to James Newman, Augury's Principal Solutions Evangelist. A Production Health approach is set to be the unlocking agent for helping organizations empower their people to work ever smarter.
With its first annual Spotlight Awards Ceremony, Augury recognizes manufacturing facility teams' dedication and hard work, going the extra mile with Machine Health. After all, while tech can work to impact people, plants, and the planet, it needs people to make it happen. Thank you to our 30+ site winners, including runner-up Frito-Lay Coventry and our grand winner Fortune Brands New London!

Could a similar speech help take down the metaphorical wall that exists in manufacturing between Maintenance & Operations? “Open this gate! And tear down this wall! The will and technology are here to make it happen! Tear down this wall!”
