Operational technology generates valuable data across the factory, but fragmented environments make it harder to use that information as one connected source of insight. The challenge is to bring structure to OT integration while creating a clear architectural direction for the smart factory
A structured Smart Factory Framework and Unified Namespace (UNS) help connect operational data across silos creating the foundation for more coherent digital initiatives
Bring fragmented OT information into a more unified structure so operational data can contribute to a shared intelligence layer
Create a clearer path from factory data to the information needed by higher value digital use cases
Use a defined smart factory framework to align OT integration with a consistent high level design
Structure initiatives through a prioritization matrix rather than advancing disconnected digital projects in isolation
How NTT DATA helps
We assess the current OT environment to identify integration gaps and establish the starting point for transformation

An OT High Level Design translates the smart factory vision into a structured architectural direction

Unified Namespace principles help connect data across silos and support a more coherent factory information model

A structured prioritization matrix helps organize the initiatives that will move the smart factory framework forward

We don’t add another isolated digital layer. We structure OT integration around a connected smart factory framework


The approach creates practical shifts in how OT information, architecture, and digital initiatives come together
Establish a common foundation across operational silos
Turn the smart factory vision into a structured OT high level design
Organize digital initiatives through a defined prioritization matrix
Connect operational information with the broader intelligence layer instead of leaving it trapped in isolated environments
Begin the transformation that turns OT data into factory intelligence →
