Three takeaways

In brief.

If you only have a minute, these are the points the video is making.

01

Tools don't move plants.

Sensors, dashboards and AI licences are necessary but not sufficient. Without process knowledge, digital does not stick.

02

03

EBITDA is the measure.

Outcomes are tracked in OEE points and rand-denominated EBITDA — not transformation theatre.
