But do these leaders have a clear view of what the technology behind these buzzwords offers their business?\u201d asks Sean Robinson, service leader at Novotek UK and Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer, posits Robinson, is usually no. Modern digital technologies encompass everything from information technology (IT) infrastructure supporting back office processes to operational technology (OT) systems underpinning production and field processes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As these technologies develop and converge, Novotek argues that it\u2019s becoming increasingly important that senior business leaders understand the competitive edge the technology can provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe trouble with the modern digital technology landscape for businesses is that it\u2019s not a matter of speeding up a single process or upgrading a siloed system. It\u2019s about making connections between people, processes and assets, and it requires a organisational shift to avoid internal barriers,\u201d continued Robinson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe found from our digital roadshow events last year that business leaders greatly benefited from the workshops, as it allowed them to not only understand the technology and the possibilities, but also see how these systems support wider business functions such as supply chain management and asset investment strategies. These don\u2019t have to be entirely new deployments \u2013 we show how new tools and technologies integrate alongside existing systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis year, the workshops will consist of separate tracks for manufacturers and asset-orientated businesses like utilities providers, ensuring attendees get the most relevant insight from the day. Digitalisation will affect and transform all nature of business, so it\u2019s important that we can support leaders from all sectors and industries on this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novotek UK and Ireland has consulted and provided effective industrial automation equipment to businesses of all sizes across the UK and Ireland extensively in recent years.
