How industrial hyperautomation could transcend

buzzword status?

There are two worlds of automation. One is the conservative, day-to-day, pick-and-place, realm, where countless

businesses still play. Here, the idea of automating a process with a robot or collecting some data from a machine

to perform advanced analytics is still quite radical.

The second is the world of the early adopter, where robots make robots in a lights-out-manufacturing environment,

with machines making decisions for machines and all communication done at edge level, using sophisticated AI.

You will have seen this manufacturing environment regularly; Will Smith drove an Audi TT through it in I, Robot

for instance. You will also have come across it at Weyland-Yutani, Cyberdene Systems and Wayne Enterprises.

In this world, we’ve finally come to understand that the enterprise tech stack and the industrial tech stack are inherently

connected, and this realisation has driven huge increases in productivity and profitability over the last decade.

However, hyperautomation seems to drive a new wedge between the worlds of IT and OT. But it doesn’t have to; there’s

no reason that Business Process Management (BPM) and RPA, for instance, must stop at the edge of the enterprise layer.
