Public descriptionIndustrial Digital Technologies (IDT's) are disrupting industries across the globe. The breadth and depth of these changes herald the transformation of entire systems of production, management, and governance. There is overwhelming evidence that IDTs can provide a step change in industrial productivity(2).The Smart Connected Factory is central to this goal; it will alter the way production is performed based on smart connected machines/ devices but also smart products. However, the application of these technologies at scale presents many challenges, and there are few examples of Smart factories which provide full real-time data integration from the 'shop floor to the top floor '. These factories tend to operate with single vendor propriety technologies or have undertaken significant investment in creating bespoke integration of multi-vendor solutions. Such approaches are costly to develop and maintain and prevent continuous open innovation.The application of these technologies at scale still presents many challenges such aslack of standards creating technical interoperability issues,cyber threats,high number of legacy assets and constrained devices limiting data exploitation opportunitiesThis proposal delivers solutions for shop floor connectivity including legacy devices, analytics, and integration with the Manufacturing Execution layer of the ISA-95 architecture. It demonstrates how through rapidly maturing and fusing IDT through proof of value projects solutions can be scaled quickly to realise real productivity improvement.It addresses 3 broad innovation challenges :-1. How to address the technical barriers to IDT introduction? Addressing the challenge of merging IT and OT. In industry 4.0 these entities must act as one to exploit technologies such as AI/ ML, big data etc.2. How to rapidly mature and deploy IDT to match the exponential pace at which it is being developed? Demonstrate a rapid open innovation methodology to co create IDT solutions tailored for complex Industrial environments based on the 3 key tenets ofInvent:- Focus on Open Innovation / design thinking and shared development of common solutionsIncubate:- Focuses on the rapid prototyping of solutions to demonstrate Proof of ValueIndustrialise:- Understanding the route to scale utilizing 4 key methods of Design thinking, Design Sprints, Lean experiments and agile delivery.3. How to leverage standards to innovate at pace by removing vendor 'lock out' due to the use of proprietary standards? The goal is to develop an Interoperability & standards road map in recognition of the role standards play in accelerating innovation and deployment.(2)made_smarter_review

工业数字技术（IDT）正在颠覆地球仪的各个行业。这些变化的广度和深度预示着整个生产、管理和治理系统的变革。有大量证据表明IDT可以为工业生产力带来一个台阶式的变化（2）。智能互联工厂是实现这一目标的核心;它将改变基于智能互联机器/设备以及智能产品的生产方式。然而，这些技术的大规模应用带来了许多挑战，并且很少有智能工厂的例子可以提供从“车间到顶层”的完全实时数据集成。这些工厂倾向于使用单一供应商专有技术运营，或者在创建多供应商解决方案的定制集成方面进行了大量投资。这些方法的开发和维护成本高昂，并阻碍了持续的开放式创新。这些技术的大规模应用仍然面临许多挑战，例如缺乏标准，导致技术互操作性问题，网络威胁，大量遗留资产和受限设备限制了数据开发机会。该提案提供了车间连接解决方案，包括遗留设备，分析，并与伊萨-95体系结构的制造执行层集成。它展示了如何通过价值证明项目快速成熟和融合IDT，快速扩展解决方案，以实现真实的生产力提升。如何解决引入IDT的技术障碍？应对IT和OT融合的挑战。在工业4.0中，这些实体必须作为一个整体来利用AI/ ML、大数据等技术。如何快速成熟和部署IDT，以适应其发展的指数速度？展示一种快速开放式创新方法，根据Invent的3个关键原则，共同创建针对复杂工业环境量身定制的IDT解决方案：-专注于开放式创新/设计思维和共同开发通用解决方案孵化：-专注于解决方案的快速原型设计，以展示价值证明工业化：-了解利用设计思维，设计冲刺，精益实验和敏捷交付的4种关键方法进行规模化的路线。3.如何通过消除因使用专有标准而导致的供应商“锁定”来利用标准进行同步创新？目标是制定互操作性和标准路线图，以认识到标准在加速创新和部署方面的作用。（2）made_smarter_review
