Robust AI Systems
Watch On-Demand

Practical decision systems require much more than end-to-end learned models. This talk will focus on research and engineering questions on machine learning robustness that executives should be aware of.

  • Usable/practical decision systems (especially for high-stakes decisions) have to be both
  1. Accurate
  2. Robust
  • The major practical challenge in designing and implementing robust decision systems: it is easy to describe the desired correct behavior, but specifying correctly all consequences for failing to meet the terms of the contract, are extremely hard to specify.
  • Practical decision systems are required to decide and act in the face of unknowns
  • To do that, ALL learned models are required to output not only a prediction/estimate, but also a self-competence estimate
  • Other methods for achieving robustness: multifaceted understanding, and causal models.

Achieving Optimal results in Digital Process Automation
Watch On-Demand

Technology and the use of digitization continue to drive new process innovations, spanning numerous industries.  While all can agree that the efficiencies to be gained will vastly improve business operations & workload challenges, while significantly improving bottom line revenue,  there are critical elements required to ensure these benefits are realized.  Utilizing some real-world case studies and observations/experiences of a 20+ year career that has cut across financial services, information technology, procurement and pharmaceuticals, this topic will dive into areas where organizations fall short.  We will discuss what happens when teams apply a greater strategic focus at the onset, coupled with a true enterprise mindset, and a commitment to operational excellence pre/during/post launch.  Taking great care in employing these strategies will culminate in an optimal digital process automation experience. 

Key Takeaways from this session:

  • Gain the importance of defining the digital strategic vision – “What are we trying to solve for”
  • Building-integrated platforms – “What it truly means to demonstrate an enterprise mindset”
  • Developing & executing effective Change Management strategies – “Why the change journey starts at the onset, leveraging organization verticals and horizontals”
  • Measuring effectiveness  - “Why defining success through aligned KPI’s will drive accountability and results."

Using Excel, automate the creation and use of the Standard Work process
Watch On-Demand

When establishing or updating standard work, the documents needed, Operator Load charts and each individual standard work combo sheet can be a time-consuming task. What if there was an easier way to create those documents?

 

Overview
When conducting time study on a new process or an established process, completing all the documents for a playbook set to a certain takt is time consuming. Another issue is there is no “playground” to move people around electronically attempting to level load the line. In most cases, we must take the time to physically move operators around and re-time the work. All with the goal of finding that magic balance.
What we will see is with Excel, most all the processes to document standard work and produce the required documents can be automated. In addition, with the same spreadsheet, we have a playground to take work from one operator, give it to another and see immediately what happen to our operator load chart. Then, once the best possible scenario is documented, a single click prints all the required documents.

The Importance of Self-Healing Automation in Banking
Watch On-Demand
  • Real-time, AI-driven monitoring and integration: Evolve from issues-based resolution to real-time monitoring and integration of any technology stack.
  • Self-healing: Apply AI to testing to identify when a function has changed. Then, the test can automatically update itself to be relevant and not fail during execution.
  • Applied analytics: Shift from “test data” to “test insights” through applied analytics. This allows companies to manage the exponential growth in data volumes and variety.
  • Next-generation DevOps: Move beyond function or script-driven approaches towards autonomous frameworks that bring developers, customers and end-users together.
  • Borderless organization: Build interconnected virtual teams comprising industry, business and technology experts aligned around a common business purpose.

Leveraging Discovery and Automation Tools to Create Best Practice Processes

Digital transformation in healthcare is more than eliminating paper, it is about driving efficiencies on both the front and the back end of the business. Despite pressures to digitize, in many instances, paper still rules. Many still rely on aging forms for managing patients, interacting with suppliers, and dealing with employees.  
 

When steps are taken to automate these processes, manual, cumbersome and slow coding techniques are often employed. This slows time to value and reduces ability to scale…in other words, preventing real transformation. Moving past manual process automation helps healthcare organizations to redefine sustainable operational excellence. 

Join Erik Hille at Nintex for an insightful webinar that covers: 

  • How Nintex supports planning, mapping, then managing your processes  
  • How can help identify further opportunities for improvement  
  • How automation optimizes processes and drives operational excellence

Empowering Excellence in R&D
Watch On-Demand
“We can do better science by operating more efficiently”

The biopharmaceutical R&D value stream process is complex, lengthy (10 years average to develop a biologics drug from discovery to commercial launch) and highly matrixed. It consists of technical processes which interfaces with various business processes needed to enable the drug development process.

In addition, the R&D environment naturally focusses on “scientific excellence” and faces cultural challenges to embrace “operational excellence”. Thus, the long lead time to develop a drug combined with the highly matrix interfaces and cultural barriers makes it challenging to develop an operational excellence roadmap for R&D. The road to operational excellence in R&D is very young and more complex compared to the manufacturing and service businesses

  • requires adaptation of traditional approaches to fit the R&D processes
  • requires transversal collaboration to be successful
  • requires cultural change within the organization

This presentation will demonstrate the impact of Operational Excellence for R&D, in terms of transforming R&D into a highly efficient organization and enabling scientific excellence in R&D. It will show you how to build your own roadmap for empowering excellence in the R&D environment, which will include the following

  • overview of the biopharmaceutical R&D process
  • challenges in applying operational excellence in R&D
  • how to develop a strategic Operational Excellence roadmap in R&D
  • examples of case studies

Drive the effectiveness of Digital Finance Transformations
Watch On-Demand
Steer sponsorship and executive management. Accelerate change and adoption of solutions. Build effective learner structures
  • More projects fail than succeed. This is especially true of Digital Finance Transformations that often take years.
  • Most fail not because of technical difficulties with the project or the software. But, because people are not on board with the change.
  • The first factor that leads to failure is sponsorship. By sponsorship I mean, executives that truly support the project. They walk the talk, provide resources, and remove roadblocks.
  • Less than 10% of projects succeed without a sponsor.
  • The second factor is having a structured approach to people change. It’s up to 6 times more likely to succeed if there is a people change management approach in your transformation.
  • It doesn’t really matter which approach you take just as long as you have on.
  • The third factor is leadership communication. Business messages are always more powerful coming from senior executives. However, if the changes impact me personally then the person I want to hear from is my line manager.
  • Taking care of these three simple factors can significantly accelerate your transformation.

The Globalization of the Practice of Law Through Digital Transformation
Watch On-Demand

From the invention of the telegraph to the invention of the cloud, technology has significantly modified and enhanced the practice of law.  Like politics the practice of law was local.  Lawyers seldom travelled outside of their geographical area.  Today lawyers situated even in the most remote places can have a global practice.  Communication is instantaneous.  You can digitally travel the world in a matter of seconds.  

We went from the telegraph, the telephone, the internet, Skype,  Teams and Zoom.  We went from storing paper files to storing millions of  terabytes of data.  

New technology can also bring headaches. Companies and law firms must adjust.  There are many advantages but if you are not careful, technology can be a headache. 

We will discuss the following;

1.  How to use technology without eliminating the personal connection. 

2.  How technology has changed the way companies and law firms provide services. 

3.  How to sort though the vast expanse of digital information.  

4.  How to successfully integrate technology.

Unleashing the Digital Twin to Optimally Empower the Workplace
Watch On-Demand
Goal: Establish a Digital Ecosystem to Enable Optimized Performance in 90-Days

After more than two years of lock-downs, many facilities are finding themselves struggling to find workers.   With an ever-growing demand for locally sourced goods, there is a shortage of facility workers –

  • 2.1 Million Manufacturing Jobs Could Go Unfilled by 2030 (National Association of Manufacturers – May 2021).
  • 78% Executives indicate that it impacts their ability to implement new technologies and increase productivity.
  • Manufacturing executives responding to the skills gap survey indicated that 6 of every 10 skilled production openings they have are unfilled today due to the talent shortage.

There continues to be pressure to move to local manufacturing while maintaining or reducing costs. Therefore, this is the era of the automated factory … doing more with less workers.

ERPs provide linear Supply/Demand planning. However, the non-liner complexities of Sales and Operational Planning (S&OP) and Supply Chain Risks continues to cause havoc in the workplace resulting in firefighting and non-value added activities costing companies millions while losing customers. Real-Time monitoring and decision making are therefore required in order to reduce the impact of the dynamic complexities of the Supply Chain (Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Return).  The solution requires a Real-Time, Data Driven Digital Twin with integrated Neural Networks to leverage Artificial Intelligence, and enable dynamic learning (not available in ERPs).

This Webinar demonstrates CreateASoft’s digital twin technology that leverages learning algorithms using Neural Networks (AI) to generate sustained benefits that enable the workers to maximize their performance, drive sustained profitability, and exceed customer requirements.

Please join Hosni Adra, Managing Partner - CreateASoft and Jim de Vries, Managing Partner, Enhance International Group (EIG) for an insightful webinar demonstrating capabilities and providing you our proven 90—Day Roadmap to Digital Twin Sustainability.

Employee as Customer - Digital Employee Engagement
Watch On-Demand

Digital transformation programs mostly centered around customers due to obvious financial and growth impacts. However successful organizations with sustained growth increasingly rely on employees and their productivity to achieve the end objectives of profitable growth.

Employees and teams had become another strategic focus during the ‘Great Resignation’ and pandemic. According to McKinsey, organizations that improved their individual and team performance during the pandemic, 60 percent of leaders increased the amount of time they spent recognizing and engaging their employees. 

Just like customer driven digital transformation, employee digital engagement requires a wholistic approach - starting with employee recruitment and onboarding to providing channels for collaboration and establishing an effective digital oriented service model.

In a way, organization need to be re-aligned with two foci - customer and employee. Key takeaways:

  • A framework for digital employee engagement and value realization
  • Nuances of Customer and Employee Engagement
  • Common pitfalls and dynamics of digital employee engagements

One lasting learning from the past year is that businesses that were able to pivot quickly could accelerate investment and strengthened their resiliency. Pivoting quickly is made possible by having a composable business made from interchangeable building blocks.

Imagine being able to take apart a spaceship and rebuild it as a castle using the same building blocks, or more relevantly, take apart a dishwasher and rebuild it as a ventilator. Enterprise architects are the ideal people to lead this effort given the knowledge already derived from architecting the enterprise.

Sustainability-Driven Digital Transformation
Watch On-Demand

Many established brands continue to erode confidence with consumers due to recalls, environmental carelessness, fraud and human rights violations that undermine their credibility. Consumer awareness and regulatory requirements mean ethical sourcing and transparency are more important than ever to digital transformation programs. Enterprises today need to make ESG and sustainability goals an integral part of their global transformation. In a world where climate change should make sustainability top of mind, organizations must operationalize efforts to ensure their products are made in an ethical and environmentally friendly manner while establishing strict production standards.

Until today the efforts to ensure that our supply chains are sustainable has been left largely at the discretion of operations, procurement, and supply chain divisions, which are often isolated from the fallout of unsavory practices surfacing and negatively impacting brands and consumer choice. This session will bring together brand and sustainaiblity leaders with leaders in global supply chain management to discuss what’s needed to ensure you’re driving corporate sustainaiblity objectives in tandem with digital transformation programs.

 Session discussion topics:

  • Introduce corporate ESG and sustainability and its criticality to brand growth
  • Share leading practices on how to identify sustainaiblity goals for your facilities, products/services, and supply chains
  • Discuss operating model considerations for organizations to better integrate marketing and sustainaiblity teams with supply chain, procurement, logistics, and other teams to create better “branded” supply chains that drive revenue
  • Discuss technology innovations in sustainaiblity and how it can increase the value of your digital transformation programs (e.g. blockchain, AI/ML, NFC tags, QR coding, GPS, drones, temperature/air quality monitoring, and more)

The Enterprise Architect as Troubleshooter
Watch On-Demand

Any business transformation effort must first determine what to change and how it needs to be changed. This is basic troubleshooting. Troubleshooting requires skills that are rare and hard to master. They often concentrate among enterprise architects. This, combined with their detailed knowledge of the “plumbing” of the enterprise—the links between process performance and business outcomes—puts enterprise architects in the best position to figure out what needs to change and how it needs to change.

This presentation introduces troubleshooting as an application of the scientific method. It shows how links between process performance and business outcomes can be viewed as plumbing, using the plumbing of a building as a metaphor. Finally, it shows how enterprise architects combine troubleshooting skills and knowledge of plumbing to quickly and accurately diagnose what a business change activity needs to target.

  • Learn about troubleshooting as an application of the scientific method
  • Learn how structural aspects of capabilities and processes influence customer experiences and business outcomes using plumbing as a metaphor
  • Learn how troubleshooting skills and knowledge of specific plumbing of an enterprise lead to more accurate diagnoses of what needs to change to achieve a given outcome

Beyond Process Mining
Watch On-Demand

During the last decade, Process Mining has been established as a powerful technology to achieve insights into complex business processes. “Switching on the light” has allowed companies to identify and remediate process inefficiencies. However, transparency is not a purpose of its own. Companies strive for Value, which is achieved e.g. through elimination of execution gaps, improved financial performance or smart sustainability levers.

In his presentation, Dr. Reinkemeyer will address the impact beyond Process Mining: technologies which leverage insights for proactive alerting, intelligent automation and simulation. Methodologies to frame and sustain value such as value trees, Masterplans and Centers of Excellence which serve as an internal accelerator to drive process transformation. In this evolution, Process Mining is the foundation which needs to be intelligently complemented to drive value for companies.

Using process risk analysis to determine the starting point of digital transformation
Watch On-Demand

Process Risk Analysis (PRA) is a method of examining and classifying operational processes into categories based on a variety of factors. This will help understand the completeness, accuracy, and precision, and automatability of process models and can also explain process discrepancies and lack of performance. More importantly, this exercise will provide a picture of which business processes are ready for automation and digital transformation, and will clearly illustrate the work that needs to be performed for processes that are not ready. Companies that do not examine their processes before implementing automation solutions tend to focus on the processes that cause the greatest problems – but automation is not always the solution and in fact may vastly accelerate failure.

The goal of this session is to provide a framework of PRA as it applies to a digital transformation strategy and encourage the user to focus on preparing processes for digital transformation before implementing technology.

  • Understand the PRA framework
  • Understand the Process Precision and Accuracy matrix and it’s impact on variance and waste
  • Understand the major factors that impact successful process automation (hint: it’s not the tool!)

The global pandemic has transformed the way we do work as well as where we work. The workplace is no longer the place where workers go to work nor is it where the worker is. The new workplace is the shared digital environment and digital collaboration tools working teams use to get work done regardless of their location. What the pandemic showed us is that digital technology can and should change how we think about, and use, the workplace as work becomes more digital and mobile. This new digital working space creates challenges for organizations with regards to security, productivity, and costs. Creating a productive digital workplace begins with shifting one’s mindset from thinking about the workplace as a location to seeing it as a network of digitally mediated relationships and interactions.  Technology now allows us to combine digital tools with physical space to create a modern digital workplace, one that uses the best capabilities of both. This creates new challenges for teams working digitally across boundaries and locations.

Performance Anxiety: How to Define and Measure What Really Matters
Watch On-Demand

We all learn that objectives should be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound), and yet we often find ourselves held accountable for metrics that are questionable in terms of their relevance or actual value, to be polite. And yet, no metric, as long as it is valid (measures what you think it measures) and reliable (can be reliably measured without bias or at least with bias accounted for) is inherently wrong…unless it is.

When reading “our new system to help increase self-service shows a 25% reduction in tickets logged as compared to the legacy system”, the statement raises more questions than it answers, especially if the system is running in parallel and allows users to choose freely which system to use. Is the system “causing” the drop, or differences in the users groups? These questions can be answered, robustly, and executives can be provided insights that are both accurate and actionable. Anything can be measured, if you really think about how to define exactly what you are trying to achieve.   

This talk will provide insights into the following areas of organizational life:

  • Why so many metrics often make so little sense.  
  • Why classical KPIs don’t work for most functions, and an alternative that can.
  • Why people tend to be very poor at estimation, and a method to improve the accuracy of your organization around “intangibles”.
  • How to minimize the anxiety of accountability.
  • A simple step-by-step framework to help get you started on defining and measuring what really matters.

You’ve Automated to Survive COVID-19, But What Now? Transforming the Messy Processes that Serve Users
Watch On-Demand

COVID-19 forced mass adoption of Digital Transformation technologies, mainly to keep businesses running when the workforce, customers and partners at once became virtual and relied on whatever automation was readily available. Now, a year into this new paradigm of work, we’ve learned that merely automating a process is not digital transformation; rather, processes must be re-imagined as experience management – especially those processes around employee and customer service.

This session highlights:

  • A “Digital Intelligence” approach to transforming processes that involve people using unstructured content to make decisions and serve their users
  • Thinking beyond the importance of data, process flow and tasks to discover, monitor and optimize
  • The role of unstructured content as decision, compliance and risk points in employee and customer interactions and making them work for, not against your digitization goals

Watch On-Demand

Just upto 6-7 years ago, many leaders believed that Cloud is just a fad. These leaders represented some of the largest technology companies that have been legends in their respective business domains.

Well the reality is for everyone to see now. However do we believe that all of us in technology world today are fully onboarded with the idea and understanding of Cloud? The understanding of Cloud, its requirements, technology landscape behind it and business outcomes that it can influence are probably still evolving.

Many of the companies still don’t run on cloud, either they are not ready for It or they don’t see a dire need to go on Cloud. Sometimes IT budgets don’t allow it, sometimes path to move to Cloud is not clear and most of the times, the companies are victims of heavy customization done systematically by their employed ITvendors.

Key takeaways:

  • IT and Business to work and plan Cloud strategy together; A purpose driven Cloud strategy.
  • Importance and relevance of holistic Cloud strategies with multiple options that are affordable and sustainable.

Empowering Excellence in R&D
Watch On-Demand

The biopharmaceutical R&D value stream process is complex, lengthy (10 years average to develop a biologics drug from discovery to commercial launch) and highly matrixed. It consists of technical processes which interfaces with various business processes needed to enable the drug development process.

In addition, the R&D environment naturally focusses on “scientific excellence” and faces cultural challenges to embrace “operational excellence”. Thus, the long lead time to develop a drug combined with the highly matrix interfaces and cultural barriers makes it challenging to develop an operational excellence roadmap for R&D. The road to operational excellence in R&D is very young and more complex compared to the manufacturing and service businesses

  • requires adaptation of traditional approaches to fit the R&D processes
  • requires transversal collaboration to be successful
  • requires cultural change within the organization

This presentation will demonstrate the impact of Operational Excellence for R&D, in terms of transforming R&D into a highly efficient organization and enabling scientific excellence in R&D. It will show you how to build your own roadmap for empowering excellence in the R&D environment, which will include the following

Healthcare information: Creating patient-controlled, standardized, secure and open data structures
Watch On-Demand

Healthcare information is locked behind silos controlled by providers and insurance companies. Within these silos, clinical and imaging data is kept separately. His arrangement makes it very difficult to correlate the two to find patterns that lead to insight even when working within a single silo. Working across silos is much more difficult and is one of the major impediments to advances on medical research.

The patient is left out completely, let alone having little control over how their data is used. That is about to change. The pieces exist to allow the creation of patient-controlled, standardized, and open data structures protected by advanced cryptography that will eventually replace these silos. In the short term, the silos will continue to exist, but will become increasingly unwieldy to maintain. This talk will paint a picture of this future.

Reliability Centered Maintenance and Asset Connectivity
Watch On-Demand

The ability to predict outcomes can prove to be a competitive advantage in any realm of life. Prediction, within the Maintenance community, is key to staying out in front of equipment failures. The importance of a clean source of data in order to identify trends and detect failure modes especially random failures is what keeps equipment available for use and reliable when in use.

The ability to collect data is an obstacle, especially in capital-intensive industries. The solution is an investment in a cloud-based operating system that, through sensors placed on specific components of equipment, will allow the transition of asset data into the ability to monitor and analyze that data that then is used to make inferences from.

These inferences then lead to the deployment of specific maintenance strategies.

Key Takeaways:

  • The role that Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) plays within any industry is critical.
  • RCM is a systematic (data-driven) and standardized approach to define and execute routine preventive and predictive maintenance activities in order to maximize company assets ROIC and capacity through improved equipment availability & reliability and reduced operating and capital costs.
  • RCM relies on asset (equipment) data in order to make decisions as to what maintenance strategy to deploy such as preventive or predictive.
  • Many organizations who utilize RCM are not realizing the full potential of it due to a lack of clean data from the assets (equipment) they are committed to managing.
  • Leveraging process mining to turn event data (equipment in a run state) into predictable outcomes drives many advantages for the organization such as staying out in front of equipment failure.

How to Leverage Innovation and Entrepreneurship in the Global Space Ecosystem
Watch On-Demand

Space — once considered the final frontier and only accessible to a select few — is now home to the most dynamic and innovative ecosystems on the planet. While not every person will get to ride on a rocket or see one lift-off, everyone — students, young leaders, entrepreneurs, small businesses and professionals — can become contributors to the $424B and growing space economy.

Despite recent excitement around SpaceX and NASA, you may not be aware that the technologies that enable space access and exploration have real-world applications that shape our daily lives. In fact, every community, infrastructure and aspect of modern life on planet Earth is dependent on space-related technologies, like weather forecasting, manufacturing goods, global communications, healthcare, and farming.

Advocating for space innovation to better life on Earth, Shelli will walk you through a pragmatic Workforce Development Roadmap to seizing opportunities in the global space ecosystem.

No matter what your demographic, skill set, or current path, you will walk away from Shelli’s session with solid footing on how you can pursue opportunities as a job, career, innovator, supplier, grantor, funder, partner, sponsor or collaborator in the bigger mission of bringing space technology innovation to improving life on Earth.

Radical, comprehensive, strategic change requires the commitment and participation of everyone, in organizations that have little experience of doing that. Business leaders need basic transformation processes to overcome this challenge.

This session outlines a simple framework for digital transformation success, using basic tools that facilitate organizational collaboration to develop a transformational vision, create a roadmap for its implementation and manage its execution. The session will provide an introduction to:

Culture Eats Strategy Every Time. How to go from wishing to wisdom when building a winning culture
Watch On-Demand

The famous reference by Peter Drucker, “Culture eats strategy for breakfast,” rings true when looking at actual results versus our expected outcomes around strategic implementations. An employee’s ability to adapt to rapid business change has less to do with what’s changing and more to do with cultural context. The larger an organization, the more vulnerable a company culture can become.  When you throw on a sudden shift to working remotely, culture can be even less impervious to leaks. Much like a 12-step process focused on recovery, the first step in culture change is being willing to hold up the mirror and objectively look at how your culture truly reflects your company values and business vision.   

Key Takeaways:

  • A modern working definition of company culture
  • How avoiding a focus on culture can thwart the best-laid strategies and depreciate brand equity
  • Key factors to accurately assess the true health of a company culture
  • The deceptively simple number one secret to building a winning culture
  • How diversity, equity and inclusion must be at the heart of your culture strategy

Your Attitude is Your Breakthrough: Change the Attitudes, Change the Culture
Watch On-Demand

As cohorts of Operational Excellence, most of us attack operational excellence and cultural transformation by focusing on processes and systems. But what about the people? What about people’s attitudes? The famous John Maxwell says “Good attitudes among players do not guarantee a team’s success, but bad attitudes guarantee its failure”. 

What if you could get people to live their life  and work life in a way that maximizes their potential, opens doors, impacts people's lives, AND allows them to live financially well all while making your team/organization great?

Sometimes people feel stuck, unproductive and living a less than fulfilling life. This affects their performance at work. What is the key to breakthrough? Many will tell you it’s education. The acquisition of knowledge. Some say it is the ability to win friends and influence people. Some will say the search for your purpose or passion. Others will say “hard work” is the key. All of these have some part to play and have some benefit. However, this presentation is going to show you what I have learned while consulting with hundreds and hundreds of organizations and individuals. You see, there is a “secret” hidden in all of this that can drastically change YOU, your people and your organization. Sure process improvement and system enablement can change and organization. But systemic change requires changing people and their attitudes. Embracing these concepts and putting them into practice will drastically change your organization almost immediately. It is totally up to you.

Key takeaways:

  • What shapes our attitudes?
  • How do we perceive situations that determine our response?
  • How goals and objectives improve attitudes
  • How attitude determines a focus
  • How do attitudes affect team & organizational performance?
  • Building great attitudes build great people, build great organizations
  • Cultural Transformation: People (and their attitudes), Process & Systems
  • What you can do immediately?

Automate any Process, Anywhere
Watch On-Demand

Imagine your people could effectively work together so that they can build the processes that accelerate the business and improve customer's experiences – all at the right time and with the flexibility to change as soon the business needs change.

Imagine the processes could orchestrate all people, systems, and things that are needed to drive great outcomes. And imagine you could quickly understand any potential inefficiencies or bottlenecks and improve these processes as you go.

I would like to share Camunda's vision for process automation with you – a vision in which you can eventually automate any process, anywhere.

The 21st century will be dominated by algorithms. ‘Algorithm’ is arguably the single most important concept in our world -- Yuval Noah Harari: Homo Deus, 2016.

Processes are the Algorithms of an Organization. Successful businesses are masters in optimizing their algorithms 

- by automating business processes that are designed precisely to their needs, 

- by improving continuously as they gain more insights over time and 

- by relentlessly leaving no part of a process across people, systems or devices behind. 

Today’s Process Automation Challenge is End-to-end Process Automation --the key to Digital Transformation.

It’s Camunda’s mission to let you automate any process, anywhere.

Terminating a relationship with the customer - why and how?
Watch On-Demand

In the financial sector terminating a relationship with the client is important for 3 reasons - financial crime, risk appetite, and economics. Banks and other financial organizations need to be cautious when onboarding new clients and while maintaining relationships with them.

It is, though, equally important for those organizations to say goodbye to their dear clients where the regulators or the stakeholders expect them to do so. They need to act promptly - but they also need to be thorough to ensure the offboarded client has no access to the bank's products and services. This is especially important in the case of financial crime-driven offboarding.

  • How to establish and execute an effective client offboarding process?
  • What are the key and common challenges that may prevent the current offboarding process from being thorough and efficient?
  • How enterprise architecture can help?

The presentation will use a real-life example of the major bank's offboarding approach to provide the answers.

Customer Demand Digital Experience
Watch On-Demand

Today’s customer has become more informed and enriched and they no longer compare one banking institute or organisation with another or for that matter a product they offer with another. In fact, they compare experiences. Experiences that are easy, instant, and seamless.

This change has made a paradigm shift to current day business operations, how the business will get done, how to stay relevant and play an active part in the customer’s life. Traditional approaches with siloed channels with numerous repetitive workflows are doing little benefit to organisations, staff, and customers they serve.

Let’s navigate this journey putting the experience layer over the technology layer. This approach will allow organisations to orchestrate customer interactions across multiple touchpoints, generating massive savings in cost and time and delivering a CX that makes sense.

In short 2020 was not all bad, it catapulted industries into the largest transformation of their business in a matter of days/weeks that would have taken some companies years if at all.  This will go down in history as the evolution of digitalization, not that it wasn’t around before 2020 but was not being utilized due to COVID19 we saw technology accelerate at a rapid pace. Businesses will discover better ways to use technology and continually push to evolve further.

Advancing Market Segmentation during and post Covid-19 pandemic world
Watch On-Demand

The Covid-19 pandemic impact has been one of the most interesting social, economic, and consumption experiments in real-time with billions of people overnight changing pretty much everything about their habits. It has already impacted customer behaviors significantly through at least the near-term future.

In normal times, customer experience in banking is about making customers happy—with the result that they are more loyal, use products more, and cost less to serve. In the context of COVID-19, superior customer experience means clarity and transparency, support for digital tools with which many customers are still unfamiliar, and new products and services for customers in distress. This session will enable delegates to purposefully attract, meaningfully retain, and thoughtfully serve customers by advancing market segmentation through the following impactful capabilities:

1) Identify a strategic decision that would benefit from information about different customer segments.

2) Determine which customers drive profits.

3) Analyze actual and potential purchasing behavior periodically.

We’ll look at the core processes in Finance: record-to-report and financial planning and analysis to explain what’s changing, what can be automated, and how to deliver real-time insights from a common data model.

We’ll also look at what stopped many organizations in the past, whether this was fragmented accounting systems feeding into huge data warehouses, fragmented accounting structures that grew with each acquisition, or 500 spreadsheets held together by an ERP system. Now we have one giant pivot table, the universal journal, a quest for common accounting structures that support business steering across the organization but offer the freedom to meet local legal requirements, and the move to capture information where it happens from different perspectives.

Have you ever noticed how a strong and successful principle conductor can orchestrate the right instrumentalists to create fantastic music? Similarly, the key to success for an organization in the midst of change is to have a strong organizational framework that can orchestrate a cohesive change far more successful than if initiatives were driven individually.

Financial Services firms are in a period of extraordinary flux and their Operations are at the crossroads of all the change.  If managing the delicate balance of cost, risk, regulations, client satisfaction, and revenue enablement weren’t challenging enough, Operations now has to ensure safe passage for the firm’s very many transformation efforts:  Digitization, Client Experience Innovation, and Fintech integration to name a few. 

Most recently, Operations has played a key role in the pandemic response by quickly pivoting to fully virtualized work and shifting work rapidly between locations to ensure that businesses are able to continue operating despite incredible market volatility.  And, there’s no end in sight - the pace of change from an exponential world only promises increase. 

As such, Operation Excellence in Financial Services is becoming synonymous with Operational Agility.  It’s clear that firms that react, respond, adapt quickly, and are able to nimbly manage continuous transformation will be winners in this new environment.  So the key question for Operations Excellence becomes:  how to create Operation Agility?

The Top 4 Rules of Engagement for Digital Transformation thru Human-Centered Design
Watch On-Demand

As many companies grapple with the unprecedented circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, it also presents an opportune time to actively address the human side of operational excellence in today’s workplaces and virtual environments.  Many businesses are faced with introducing new standards, strategic policies, and government mandates. In the quest to operate and deliver value to customers, at the very core of this cultural shift is human-centered design.

Even though digital transformation may look different for every company, industry, or new sector of innovation; essentially, the future of work starts at the intersection of 4 distinct rules of engagement that include: 1) diversity & inclusion, 2) ethics and awareness, 3) trust and safety, and 4) accessibility.

The CyberXR Coalition launched industry-wide standards that introduced a unique approach to help organizations successfully integrate digital technology into their areas of business. Our guide provided best practices and adoption-ready processes to help businesses reimagine the “new normal” of better leveraging digital transformations. 

This session will discuss:
  • Introducing human-centric design as the “new normal” of interoperability
  • Successfully implementing novel, industry-wide standards, and processes
  • Shifting current mindsets to a “continuous improvement” mindset

Watch On-Demand

The presentation will focus on two digital transformation case studies at Metrolinx where the first case study will provide an overview of the Operations division’s journey of moving from a paper shift sign-up process to a digitized and automated online platform for a workforce of ~ 800 employees located across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). The initiative was a success despite the various challenges such as opposition to change by the unionized workforce. This accomplishment was possible due to the change management efforts from the project team including detailed process review & gap analysis, extensive stakeholder engagement and training, proactive communication to users and continuous improvement efforts.

The second case study will provide an overview of how a similar change management approach was applied to develop and create streamlined data visualizations known as the 5 Year Resource Plan for the Capital Projects Group (CPG) in Metrolinx, which is delivering the one of the largest Transit Infrastructure projects through Public Private Partnerships.  This initiative was an astounding success with the Senior Management Team and Board of Directors as it provided insights and transparency into the various stages of the hiring process on an online platform which previously was not possible due to the use of spreadsheets and outdated processes. As a result of this transformation, key performance indicators aligned with the organization’s strategic objectives can be created and actively monitored to assess the division’s performance. This is only the first step in digitizing resource management in CPG as business intelligence tools and process improvements will continue to shape and transform the future for Metrolinx.

Key Takeaways:

  • Importance of detailed process review and gap analysis
  • The role of KPI creation and monitoring

Most companies have started their digital transformation or at least plan for it. However, an industry study shows that only 1% of organizations have their processes sufficiently under control to realize the full potential of digital solutions.

Companies struggle to operationalize their business strategy and aligning their digitalization properly. The value-realization of digital initiatives is often too slow or business expectations are not met. An appropriate process management discipline addresses those challenges. It optimizes the time-to-value.

The presentation discusses a process-led approach to digital transformation to accelerate the time-to-value and minimize risk. The findings are illustrated through examples from insurance, health, and high-tech companies.

Key topics to be addressed:

  • Process-led prioritization
  • Focused process analysis as basis for a realistic business case

Pushing RPA to the next level with Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning
Watch On-Demand

RPA can build solutions for financial transactions to train a Machine Learning model that directs corrective actions to robot workers. By combining an ideal mix of bots and humans working in tandem, significant improvement in process efficiency at much lower costs can be achieved. The AI-based models will be built upon financial data sets and recommend corrective actions in order to improve financial management.

AI-enabled robotic process automation capabilities will address financial system errors.  Currently, RPA, however, is unable to handle unmatched transactions, which are those where the invoice number, amount, method of payment or any number of details cannot be reconciled. It can take humans anywhere from a day to months to track down and resolve these unmatched transactions, adding up to billions of dollars in unresolved financial activity. If the models are successful, they will not only save time and money, but they will help increase financial compliance and get a better idea how its dollars are being spent

  • Build intelligent tools to spot and fix accounting errors without the assistance of humans.
  • Develop artificial intelligence/machine learning models that can go beyond the capabilities of robotic process automation and make decisions about financial transactions.
  • The new automated ML models would “be able take irregular, complex financial information and data, make decisions and apply judgments and solutions to a high level of accuracy or confidence without having to have a human in the loop.
  • Models will first learn to categorize unmatched transactions as either simple or complex

Unlocking Human Potential with Automation in the Post-Pandemic World
Watch On-Demand

The impact of the global pandemic in 2020 caused organizations to make dramatic changes to their operating models to support remote work while also ensuring business continuity.  These changes were largely fueled by IT and automation initiatives, and in many cases were implemented in record time to meet the needs of a rapidly changing environment.  Analysts predict the momentum from 2020’s IT and business transformation initiatives to carry forward and we’ll see a similar, if not enhanced pace in the coming years.

This continued focus on automation will have an impact on the job market.  By 2025 the World Economic Forum anticipates ‘the time spent on current tasks at work by humans and machines will be equal.’  However, most analysts agree that new jobs created because of automation will outpace jobs lost.  In tandem to these automation goals is an accelerated focus on upskilling and reskilling of employees. 

In this session we’ll explore how organizations in both the public and private sectors are using the momentum created in 2020 to redefine the workplace by unlocking human potential with automation in the post-pandemic world.

Strategy execution for the agile enterprise – be a digital business faster
Watch On-Demand

IT executives have the mandate to ensure digital transformation happens – fast. They know agility is core to digital business success and are implementing Agile approaches such as SAFe, Scrum, Kanban and DevOps to enable IT to deliver products in ever shorter release cycles.

However, IT executives in large organizations are finding it difficult to keep agile development in line with the overall direction,plans and strategy of the organization. There needs to be a bi-lateral exchange between strategists and Lean product managers or there will be a cleft between how digital strategy is defined and what development teams work on. If not addressed, the cleft grows larger leading to poor Agile execution and uninformed decisions on strategy.

Speed-to-market is hampered, digital transformation loses intensity and sustainability, customer desires aren’t fulfilled and the company’s competitive edge is lost. Strategic portfolio management (SPM) integrates strategy management with Lean portfolio management and the feature portfolio on a collaborative platform so that all involved stakeholders see one source of truth and perform their planning and operational activities in the context of the (changing) business strategy.

Find out in this session how SPM can ensure your company’s success in rapidly becoming a competitive player in digital business.

Become indispensable: Strengthen your EA practice by producing valuable business outcomes
Watch On-Demand

Organizations have spent the past years focusing on efficiency, which meant when hit with a major disruption like COVID-19, many business processes were too brittle to quickly adapt and simply broke.  During the rebuilding process, Gartner indicates that leaders must design an architecture that: enables better access to information; can augment that information with new insights; and is composable, modular, and can change and respond more quickly as decisions are made. 

But how do you do that?  A good first step is to add a business architecture top layer to your enterprise architecture efforts.  Using this lens, you can connect IT to business objectives (ensuring your efforts are business-outcome-driven) and therefore easily changeable when business objectives evolve or change.

In this session you will learn how to:

  • Create a strategic roadmap where you can plan future business capabilities and other IT investments
  • Understand how emerging technology can be leveraged to support business objectives
  • Optimize your current IT portfolio for cost, lifecycle, and agility

Leaders Transforming Health Care: Activating Operational Excellence though Trust and Change Management
Watch On-Demand

Operational excellence in healthcare is defined as delivering improvements in care quality and safety by the everyday, ongoing use of continuous improvement techniques that are driven and owned by staff.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its overwhelming impact on hospitals and healthcare workers have led to the deferment and postponement of many improvement efforts, which is understandable.

In addition, we know that disasters tend to exacerbate system weaknesses that already exist. So, what steps can healthcare leaders take to activate operational excellence? Establishing trust, demonstrating leadership commitment to these continuous improvement efforts and change management practices and tools can lead the way to activating operational excellence. While there are additional significant High Reliability Organizations (HRO) principles and actions leaders can take, this session will focus on 2 of the fundamental actions of trust and change management.

Healthcare organizations that have adopted the elements of establishing trust and change management in their process improvement efforts, have benefitted from the resilience of an empowered staff. Thus, building the capacity and capability to continue to activate and support operational excellence in challenging times. The session topics include 3 high level steps that leaders can take toward activating operational excellence.

Topics:

1. Understand the Center for Transforming Healthcare’s High Reliability Model

2. The senior leader’s behaviors and roles in leading and supporting operational excellence

3. Establishing trust and change management in leading organizational and cultural transformation

Adapt to change quickly and transform your business to win
Watch On-Demand

Organizations deal with continuous shifting, change in the past few years has been happening more frequently than ever before in history. Driven by many factors such as technology, politics, globalization and health crisis, many companies have not been able to catch up fast enough to adapt to the frequent and wide changes in the market place.

While many organizations feel that “change” is a threat, others that generally succeed feel that change brings opportunities to find areas to improve products, services, technologies, people, and processes to realize sustainable competitive advantage. Changing for the sake of change is meaningless without a defined brighter future. In recent years many businesses have focused on transforming and optimizing their operations.

However, many efforts fail because of one or more of the following three pillars do not get the proper attention from the leadership: Strategy, Project Management, Change Management. It is a three-legged stool as those three elements must all be addressed to find the right balance and ensure organizations are able to deliver their objectives while addressing any constraints they may have.

  • Embrace change but changing for the sake of change is meaningless without a defined brighter future
  • Develop an action-oriented mindset and adopt a customer-centric approach while leveraging proven technology
  • Enable a healthy culture
  • Exploit market disruption and cope with catastrophic events
  • Transform businesses and deliver positive results

Financing the Green Economy to Minimize the Impact of Climate Change
Watch On-Demand

According to the International Energy Agency, carbon-based electricity generation contributed over 30% of total global greenhouse gas emissions in 2018, by far the largest source of global GHG emission. To minimize the impact of climate change and meet the Paris Agreement's goal to limit the increase in global warming to 2°C, Morgan Stanley Research estimates that the world needs to spend US$50 trillion over the next 30 years in clean energy and technology. The International Renewable Energy Agency forecasts that US$750 billion a year is needed in renewables alone over the next decade.

The question on the minds of many investors is not whether to join in this growth, but how to channel capital into wind, solar, hydro-electric, bioenergy, energy efficiency and geothermal projects to help slow and mitigate climate change. RE Royalties represents an exciting opportunity for socially and environmentally conscious investors, who want to make sure their dollars are going towards protecting and restoring the environment.

RE Royalties’ innovative royalty financing model is well proven in other industries, but we are the first to apply it to the renewable energy sector on a global scale. Sourcing financial capital for renewable energy leaders is a crucial issue for new projects that want to get off the ground quickly to take climate action. A small, or start-up company can rarely source capital by borrowing from a commercial bank, and accessing capital is the biggest hurdle to getting renewable energy projects built.

The projects that RE Royalties invest in are helping to solve the world’s climate issues and create a more sustainable economy. RE Royalties helps their clients by taking a unique approach with the royalty-financing model to fill a gap in the renewable energy finance market.

Outcomes:

Renewables produce energy by harnessing the energy created by the sun, wind, or water, making them an indispensable ally in the fight against climate change. If we truly want to build a more sustainable energy future, then we need to ensure that renewable energy entrepreneurs have access to the capital they need to get their projects off the ground.

In this webinar, attendees will learn:

  • How you can get project financing for your renewable energy project.
  • How you can invest in the growing renewable energy market.

Customer-driven digital transformation
Watch On-Demand

Today's banks and financial institutions face challenges that seem to be familiar and very well known: globalisation, competition, regulators, and rapid technological development. The global pandemic has certainly made it all much more difficult. 

Banks exist to deliver value to their stakeholders. Interestingly, to achieve this goal, they must focus on delivering value to their clients. 

 

This is especially important when banks and financial institutions are undergoing digital transformation. However technically it sounds, in order to succeed digital transformation must be client-oriented - and start with definition of strategic architecture and client-driven journey. 

 

Using real-life examples, this session will explain:

  • how to ensure client is at the center of digital transformation

  • what digital transformation frameworks, methodologies and tools should be employed

  • how to measure the success of digital transformation.

Human Connectivity: The Missing Ingredient in Digital Transformation
Watch On-Demand

Long-lasting, impactful digital transformation requires an acute knowledge of the people, processes, and systems that comprise your organization. Successful digital transformation necessitates understanding how your tangible assets -equipment, machinery, and facilities - operate to deliver value.

It requires active participationand behavior change from people at all levels of an organization. This level of stakeholderengagement provides leaders with the insight and perspective needed to see what their specificorganization needs -- not just what’s been done before.

However, achieving this level of integrated engagement at scale can seem difficult, if not almostimpossible. Asset data comes from multiple sources. It takes time to integrate and analyze what’shappening. But swift decision-making and evaluation requires a solution that provides real-time,integrated insight into asset performance and location. And on people engagement, surveys provide snapshot-in-time perspectives, but lack specificityand real-time input.

How can leaders collect and organize input from hundreds, even thousands,of stakeholders? More than that, how can they assess sentiment, extract meaningful insights,and use this information to make decisions?

This interactive presentation will provide Digital Transformation leaders with strategies andpractical tools to engage people in change initiatives, lead positive behavior change toaccompany technology implementation, and ultimately, drive successful transformation acrosstheir organizations.

  • Better define opportunities for digital transformation by collecting input from the people closest to the processes that need to change.
  • Ideate new, creative ways to solve your problems.
  • Customize solutions according to your organization’s specific needs.
  • Customize solutions according to your organization’s specific needs.
  • Understand employee and client sentiment at scale.

Building the Workforce of the Future to Achieve Excellence
Watch On-Demand

Real-time feedback has the power to drive employee excellence across an organization. During this session, Patrick Law, Vice President, Client Operations for Card Services at Fiserv, will:

  • Outline the unique benefits of real-time feedback
  • Describe how real-time feedback helps Fiserv associates achieve excellence and deliversuperior value to clients, and
  • Provide recommendations to organizations that would like to implement real-time feedback programs.

In many organizations, feedback is collected and delivered infrequently. Employees typicallyreceive formal feedback once a year, during an annual performance review. These reviewsoften cover generalized comments on an employee’s performance but lack the constructivespecificity that empowers employee growth. Moreover, many organizations administer point-in-time surveys to gather client input. The results provide vague, backward looking sentiments,often too late to act on them.

Real-time feedback offers an impactful alternative to the annual performance review andtraditional client surveys. For employees, real-time feedback offers constructive, in-the-moment,micro-feedback on behaviors aligned to critical business processes. For clients, real-timefeedback offers an always-on, direct voice to deliver actionable insights on services andoperations. When delivered well, real-time feedback helps employees improve and deliver onkey performance metrics. Fiserv has built a client-experience focused culture to deliverexcellence and drive results for our clients.

Learning Outcomes: Attendees who attend this session will gain the following insights:

  • Learn how to develop a productive feedback culture to drive bottom-line results
  • Assess the differences between a traditional performance review and legacy clientsurvey instruments, and real-time feedback
  • Organizational benefits of a real-time feedback program
  • Best practices for implementing and leading an impactful real-time feedback program
  • Understand how to build digital leadership muscle across the organization

Efficiency without sacrificing efficacy: The Three Economies Model
Watch On-Demand

Current ways of thinking about software development tend to suggest a (false) dichotomy between Development and Operations. Many organizations are trapped in a pattern that imagines you can either be efficient or effective. However, if efficiency and effectiveness are considered mutually exclusive (that is, you cannot drive both at the same time), it is extremely difficult to drive differentiation and therefore, unique competitive advantage. So how do you accelerate differentiation, while creating resilience and driving scale? The problem isn’t choosing between these initial logics, but instead expanding the way we understand IT works with a third economy: scope.

During this session, Jabe Bloom from Red Hat’s Global Transformation Office will discuss the Three Economies model. Through the three economies - differentiation, scale, and scope - this efficiency and effectiveness paradox needn’t be paradoxical. Organizations can pursue both forms of value (differentiation and scale), by extending their economic decision making to include a third way of thinking about value (scope). You’ll walk away with an understanding of how to adopt the Three Economies model in order to transform your organization.

Building a business-enabling “digital backbone” requires a modern EA approach
Watch On-Demand

Meeting increasing customer & employee expectations for new data and digital products requires the need to drive innovations to market more quickly and cheaply.  Commonplace in large global organizations is the strategy for individual lines of business to feverishly yet independently pursue this goal through siloed efforts that lead to fragmentation and missed opportunities to leverage economies of scale and cross-pollination of innovative ideas. Companies with modern enterprise architecture groups are creating a digital foundation (the “digital backbone”) to meet individual business functions’ needs while accomplishing enterprise goals and digital ambitions.

In this session Gustav will share an architectural approach that combines the use-case and foundation building strategies employed by many companies to attain their data and digital ambitions.  He will share how to engage with both business and technology leaders to crate a organizational movement to build and sustain the digital backbone of the company.

Transform into a Lean Enterprise to focus on customer value in times of uncertainty
Watch On-Demand

Introduction
Organisations are trending more towards becoming Lean Enterprises focusing on value creation for the end customer. Highly efficient organisations understand their entire value chain, working backwards from customer requirement to fulfilment, not the other way around. The focus on optimising the value chain has seen the re-birth of Lean in organisations as a mechanism for motivating a culture for improvements.

Beyond the horizon an opportunity exists for businesses to embrace a new normal. Companies need to focus on protecting their core business and minimising costs to deliver their products and/or services.

But, where do companies start? How do they know what is core or non-core in their business? And ultimately, how can they be confident that their decisions won’t compromise any competitive advantage making them worse off?

Key Takeaways

  • Understand how iBPM solutions can accelerate transforming into Lean Enterprises.
  • Learn where customer value is delivered in a business.
  • Measure how to deliver customer value with the least amount of effort.
  • Create ownership among staff to make improvements.

Systems Thinking & Approach: The Enterprise Operating System for the Concept to Cash Value Stream
Watch On-Demand

Applying the fundamentals and using a systematic approach to your improvement is critical now more than ever. Not only does our technology rapidly change, but so does the people using it. The fundamentals to the methods and tools have been modified, skipped, and/or politicized over the past decade leading to a deep approach rather than taking the first step of understanding how the enterprise operates. The structure and process must be in place for Strategic Planning, Policy Deployment, Annual Operations Execution, and Operational Excellence in order to keep your improvements sustainable. The approach must be packaged so that all people can be part of and accept the change. Key elements from this talk will be:

  • Determining your Optimum Speed & Predictability through the fundamentals of analyzing current performance, capability, and entitlement.
  • Use what’s needed, not what the standard has forced upon you. Finding the balance of Technical/Political/Cultural influences.
  • To know the difference between doing something Different versus Differently
  • Eliminating the Culture of Repetitive Problem Solving
  • Knowing if you are in a Recovery, Turnaround, or Transformation and the importance of using the right approach.

Lessons Learned from successful RPA Implementations that have saved millions of dollars
Watch On-Demand

RPAs can be used to ease the connection and interface between different technologies or between old legacy and newer systems. It is perfect to replace processes that are highly manual, rule-based, and repetitive. While this tool has proven success, they come with a big bill and lots of monitoring and validation.

While RPAs can save significant cost and time they cannot replace fully integrated systems that talk to each other without the need for a middle-channel to bend the data and translate into other forms. I will provide several examples of how we utilized RPAs to save millions of dollars and avoid significant headache. I will also list some steps I would do differently next time I implement an RPA project.

  • RPAs are fantastic, if they are done right and if the right resources/partners have been utilized
  • Significant cost and time can be saved using RPAs
  • Monitoring and validation can come with big bills
  • Next time I implement RPAs I would probably invest in resources
  • Many RPAs can last for years and can do magic
  • When translating data between different systems/technologies, RPAs are great “band-aids” that can temporary replace fully integrated systems. However, a fully integrated system should be the ultimate goal if money, resources, and time are available because the solution is native and should works seamlessly.

The Transformation to Intelligent Enterprise
Watch On-Demand

You are standing in a room amidst a sea of different unsolved jigsaw puzzle and a pile of loose pieces yet to be connected. Each puzzle must be solved simultaneously while new puzzle pieces are streaming into the room from all angles. 

There is no obvious indication of which piece goes with which puzzle, and you only have fractions of a second to decide where a piece may fit into every puzzle in the room and some pieces may fit into multiple puzzles. The time you have to make sense of all this, your window of opportunity, is the time it takes the customer to click a choice in a Digital property, move their eyeball to a new location of a Physical property, or the milliseconds that define a span of time for the next best action.

Now let’s think about puzzles in another different domain, security, are you safe? Who is a potential insider threat? How do you know? These are just different puzzles to solve, the unknowns are the puzzles.  How do you answer the unknown and deliver insight that is thought to be impossible? How do you do this with precision and better than your competitors?  We will introduce the basics in this discussion.

Cloud Computing for Data Analytics Applications
Watch On-Demand

Data Analytics is the foundation of modern decision-making process It allows analyzing raw data tomake important decisions. During the recent Covid-19 virus epidemic we saw the power of analytics topredict the severity and the duration of the epidemic.

In every decision made by hospitals, medical professionals, and government used analytics to plan the response to this disease. For every busines sexecutive it is essential to understand basic principles of analytics. First, this seminar offers basic information about analytics which includes machine learning and deep learning. Next it enumerates the tools necessary for building analytics models. Analytics models are currently built using TensorFlow/Keras, Python/R software products and require asignificant amount of computing resources.

This precludes running analytics models on personal computers. Generally, they are not powerful enough. Analytics models usually run on cloud servers because they have enough computing resources. Consequently, Fortune 500 companies build analytics models on cloud servers. Cloud servers provide access to GPU (Graphics Processing Units) and TPU (Tensor Processing Units).

These processors can execute trillions of floating instructions per second. Due to parallel processor architecture built in GPU and TPU, they are ideal for matrix multiplication operations—the most frequently used operation in analytics models. The 3 most popular cloud services are AWS (Amazon Web Services), GCP (Google Cloud Platform), and Azure from Microsoft. Cloud servers provide general computing service in three “flavors” –Infrastructure, Platform, and Software.

They also provide the services uniquely necessary for analyticsprojects. This seminar will examine these cloud services in detail. A comparison of them will be explored from theperspective of which cloud service is better suited for analytics models. Next, the seminar will focus onhow to set up cloud servers for analytics projects.

Proprietary AI algorithm-driven “Zero Touch” fault resolution for mobile network alarms
Watch On-Demand

RPA teams are often challenged by the limitation of the existing RPA toolset, in being unable to automate knowledge-based tasks. Many RPA products have incorporated the magic terms “AI” or “Analytics”, however on closer examination, one quickly finds that most solutions are either too narrow or there is a misrepresentation of AI/ML capabilities.

In 2017, our RPA CoE at Nokia set out to create a general solution for Nokia RPA 2.0, which would integrate Nokia’s AI/Analytics platform (used as “Brains”) & RPA technology (used as “Hands”) and bring in the capability of automating judgment driven complex processes. We selected this use-case as our pilot as it had the required cognitive complexity to necessitate use of deep-learning algorithms, sufficient volumes to produce a viable business case & was scalable across multiple customers.

This session will summarize this story of conceptualizing, implementing, improving, and achieving success, including lessons learned during this journey.

Key Takeaways

  • How to visualize and set up a general solution for RPA augmented with AI/ML algorithms
  • Business case set-up & managing organization’s expectations/response – what is unique for such systems
  • Nuances and operational challenges of implementing such systems
  • Outlook for such systems
