Your digital transformation is only as good as your data: tips on avoiding ‘shiny object syndrome.’

Guests: Allen Turner, Advanced Analytics Team Lead, International
Paper
Co-host: Mariana Sandin, Industry Principal, AVEVA.


We speak with Allen Turner of International Paper (IP) about the
unique challenges of digital transformation in a legacy industry
like pulp and paper. Mr. Turner, as part of International Paper’s
global technology team, is working on an initiative called “mill
of the future,” which focuses on cost savings and optimization
across International Paper’s mills. Mr. Turner lays out the
importance of establishing foundational data quality—or “cleaning
up the messy basement” of old data tags and stale data tags—in
order to ensure a successful digital transformation project.
