Data Secrets Episode 12 with Anthony Gondick from Kawasaki Engines

In this episode of The DATA SECRETS Podcast, we chat with Tony Gondick, technology leader at Kawasaki Engines, about how data centralization and agentic AI are reshaping the future of manufacturing.

Tony Gondick explains how his small (but mighty) IT team moved beyond โ€œgood enoughโ€ thinking, tackled legacy silos, and enabled business users to become empowered data storytellers. We cover:

  • The challenges and rewards of consolidating data from legacy systems into a central platform
  • Practical steps for cleaning, governing, and making sense of decades of operational data
  • How Power BI and Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud empower non-technical users across the business
  • Real-world examples of AI-driven automation for customer service and early quality warnings
  • Why the hardest part of adopting new technology is shifting mindsets, not just systems

From enabling analytics on the shop floor to building early warning systems with AI, Tony Gondick shares insights any business can use to unlock the secrets in their own data.
