Today’s episode is all about operations technology (OT). Guests James Snook and Doug Sparkes join us to discuss the role operations technology plays in a company’s success and advancement. How does IT play a role in the implementation and maintenance of these operations technologies? In this episode, we also talk about five key myths and realities of integrating new operations technologies into a business.

IN THIS EPISODE:
- [03:10] What is OT, how is it different than IT, and how does it play a role in improving operations?
- [05:30] The key myths and realities of using IoT as it relates to operations technology.
- [12:47] Goals to consider when proposing a new IoT strategy.

- [21:00] What are some key trends in the integration of business, operations, and sustainability?
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- With so many companies deploying IoT devices in their facilities, IT teams are under a lot of pressure to simply add these devices to the network. However, they are also challenged to maintain the security and performance of the network.
- Implementing smart technology in a retail setting is not as simple as it sounds. It requires smart training to complement the smart technology, which should be easy to understand and integrate into the day-to-day operations.
- NuOz specializes in infrastructure and security needs from IoT and OT systems. OT systems have unique standards, languages, and protocols. NuOz is focused on implementing and harmonizing these systems in a very secure manner so businesses can connect systems and manage their data.
