Implementing AI at scale in manufacturing is no longer a question of “IF” or “WHEN,” but it’s about “WHERE” and “HOW”. The best “HOW” is to build on a solid data foundation powered by Microsoft Fabric, and on Microsoft’s AI Foundry platform. This is the easy choice. The “WHERE” is tougher as selecting the right use cases to start from varies tremendously by manufacturer. This short eBook summarizes the type of decision process we believe is most helpful to decide where to start deploying AI at scale in manufacturing.  At a high level, the steps are:  1. Where could AI help with manufacturing processes’ operational excellence goals?   2. Where could AI help with business processes optimization goals?  3. What is the expected ROI of this deployment? What will the investment schedule look like, and how will the return be measured?  4. What is the timeline for each potential use case candidate? Does this timeline align with the organization’s key business deadlines, such as back-to-school, holiday seasons, summer factory slowdowns, or planned maintenance schedules, to name a few?   5. How to ensure adoption of the new AI tools and processes? What is the change management plan to ensure success? At Fractal, over the 25 years we’ve been deploying ML and AI at scale for our clients across industries, including discrete and process manufacturers. We’ve developed analytical tools and proven processes to tackle those five challenges. Contact us to learn more about those! #Manufacturing #MicrosoftFoundry #MicrosoftFabric
