Physical AI

Physical AI gives machines, robots and physical operations the ability to perceive their environment, decide what matters and act in real time. Factories, plants, stores and infrastructure become systems able to sense conditions, learn from them and improve on their own, closing the gap between the physical and the digital world.

43% more invoices per person in an automated Procure-to-Pay cycle

Purchasing teams spent hours on each invoice, and the cycle had gaps in control. NTT DATA reviewed operations, tools and the organizational model, then built a roadmap with four automation scenarios. Each person in the process now handles 43% more invoices, and the process runs with 34% fewer full-time employees.

Intelligent Refining Execution Platform

A major integrated energy company executed an enterprise-wide transformation of its production execution model, replacing fragmented tools with a unified industrial platform integrating daily mass balance, scheduling, movement automation, cost analytics, and biofuel traceability across refining and petrochemical operations.

Control

Unified Production Governance

Resilience

Margin Integrity by Design

Clarity

One Physical–Financial Truth

Trust

Built-In Sustainability Compliance

From fragmented plant control to integrated production intelligence

Production relied on fragmented systems, manual processes, and disconnected data, limiting alignment between physical operations and financial performance amid rising volatility and regulatory pressure.

Objective

Establish a unified industrial core system capable of governing physical production, reconciling daily balances, automating movements, integrating cost visibility, and enabling biofuel traceability under a standardized corporate operating model.

Opportunity

Disconnected operational data limited visibility into losses, margins, and contractual exposures. Excel-based balances constrained scalability and auditability. Scheduling and execution operated in silos. Emerging biofuel regulations required certified traceability. A centralized production intelligence platform was required to ensure competitiveness and regulatory compliance.

Driving production transformation with outstanding capabilities

Together, NTT DATA and the customer, have developed a unique best-in-class solution combining industry leading best practices and consulting and tech-innovation DNA

Key Challenges

Fragmented operational and financial data environments
