Mark Otten Spotlight Interview

Great Spotlight Interview with Mark Otten, CIO of Anson Industries, who is bringing intelligent technologies into the construction industry.  Anson is a major construction company that builds stadiums, large buildings and even Formula One Raceway Paddocks!

While Mark has responsibility for the traditional CIO/CISCO work, he is also heavily involved in the operational technology involved.

We discussed the use of technology within the construction industry. Mark and his team are spearheading using the Factory 4.0 and Industry 4.0 playbooks to bringing the integration of intelligent technologies like AI and Robotics into the construction field. That includes Building Automation Management, Robotic Process Automation and more!

Mark also emphasized that "We don't want to get lost in the technology...IT is a people business...at the end of the day... it's still about people and making sure people are taken care of."

Really great talk and inspiring to see how any industry can leverage these advanced technologies while continuing to emphasize people.
