Generating actionable insights is a term widely used in the Industry 4.0 and emerging 5.0 era, data is ingested from sensors and processed to provide description, prediction or prescription to the user. In the commercial world these insights require a business value proposition, e.g., a supply chain control tower monitoring and managing the procurement and delivery of key components to a manufacturing facility must demonstrate improvements in performance metrics such as reliability and agility and the type and number of components tracked are determined by the cost of tracking as well as the value at risk. A key cost consideration is the frequency of sensor transmission and the quantity of data being processed to produce the appropriate actionable insight.
INCOMING is an alert in battle space that requires IMMEDIATE ACTION, information must rapidly be converted to action. Actionable Insights in military contexts require an emphasis on responsiveness and reliability. The speed and accuracy required depends on the engagement from real time edge analytics in combat scenarios to centralized data retrieval, advanced compute and prediction in intelligence gathering operations. In this update on Responsive Actionable Insights use cases will be shared on how data can be gathered from disparate systems and sensors to produce Responsive Actionable Insights, ensuring the right data gets to the right persons or systems at the right time. Use case will cover both military examples as well as industrial examples such as autonomous UAV, train and mining truck systems which also require Responsive Actionable Insights.
