### Acceleration of AI in Manufacturing and the Rise of Stalled Projects
With the rise of AI like ChatGPT, expectations for AI utilization in the manufacturing industry are skyrocketing. AI proposals for manufacturing customers have become a top priority for SIers and IT consultants. However, in reality, many AI projects stall at the PoC (Proof of Concept) stage and fail to achieve operational integration. Cases where budgets are frozen due to an inability to demonstrate clear ROI are frequent, making it an urgent challenge for SIers and IT consultants to connect AI proposals to tangible results.

### The Pitfall of 'AI for AI's Sake' Leading to PoC Mass Production
There is a common pattern behind the increase in AI projects that end at the PoC stage: 'AI implementation' becomes the goal itself, while real business challenges are neglected. In the midst of high expectations, projects often proceed with an 'implementation-first' mindset, leading to insufficient problem definition. AI is merely a means to an end. Without defining 'which problem to solve and how,' even high-performance AI will not change operations or yield ROI. To succeed, AI proposals must start from the real challenges faced on the shop floor.

### Solving Manufacturing's 'Unsearchable Data Problem' with Sinequa
What are the real pain points for manufacturing customers? Issues such as decades of drawings and maintenance records that only veterans can find, and the loss of tacit knowledge as veterans retire, are significant barriers. This webinar introduces 'Sinequa,' an enterprise search solution designed to solve these industry-specific challenges. Sinequa can perform cross-functional searches across SharePoint, Slack, and even data within PLM systems like Windchill and Teamcenter. When combined with AI, it provides highly accurate answers with supporting evidence. This search infrastructure is essential for design reuse, part selection, technical support, and procurement management.

FAQ

Why do many manufacturing AI projects stop at the PoC (Proof of Concept) stage?

Because the AI implementation itself becomes the goal, and specific business challenges to solve or clear ROI (Return on Investment) are not established, leading to budget freezes.

Why is it a problem that 'information cannot be found' on the manufacturing floor?

Because important data such as decades of drawings, maintenance records, and tacit knowledge of veterans cannot be searched, hindering design reuse, part selection, and technical support.

What kind of data can the enterprise search 'Sinequa' search?

It can search across data in systems like SharePoint and Slack, as well as PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) systems used in manufacturing, such as Windchill and Teamcenter.

What are the benefits of combining Sinequa with AI?

It enables the provision of high-precision answers with evidence from vast amounts of internal data, directly contributing to the efficiency of design and maintenance tasks.

Who is the main target audience for this seminar?

The main target is SIers and IT consultants who make AI proposals to manufacturing customers.
