Global industrial technology leader Emerson is pioneering a new software-defined enterprise operations platform – dubbed Project Beyond – that will change today’ s approach to industrial automation.

Project Beyond will deliver the industry’ s first software-defined, OT-ready digital platform that seamlessly integrates and optimises industrial operations. Leveraging innovations in software-defined control, data management, zero-trust cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence, Emerson’ s new platform will help automation investments deliver value without adding complexity.

The speed of technological and industrial AI advancements, combined with increased computing power needs and the unprecedented volume and complexity of siloed data generated across industrial assets, requires a new, cost-efficient way for companies to leverage automation across the enterprise while protecting existing investments.

Emerson’ s Project Beyond will tackle this challenge by creating a flexible, scalable and secure platform that connects today’ s existing automation installed base with modern technologies to empower continuous, enterprise-wide visibility, optimisation and, eventually, autonomous operations.

Skypoint, a leading provider of HITRUST r2-certified AI platform for healthcare, has announced the launch of two AI agents – Skypoint Lia and Skypoint Scribe – designed to dramatically improve workflow efficiency, capturing social determinants of health data( SDOH), and clinical decision-making across care environments.

Healthcare systems are increasingly overwhelmed by fragmented electronic health records( EHRs), redundant documentation, and mounting administrative demands. Skypoint’ s new agents address these challenges head-on, empowering clinicians to spend less time navigating systems and more time with patients.

Skypoint Lia is a browser-based, EHR-agnostic AI agent that provides real-time, unified patient insights directly at the point of care. Working across platforms like Epic, Cerner, MEDITECH, and PointClickCare, Lia overlays the EHR to surface demographics, payer information, care gaps and SDOH – without the need for integration or disruption to existing systems.

“ Lia puts the full patient picture in front of clinicians in seconds,” said Kishore Bhattacharjee, CTO at Skypoint.“ It drives faster decisions, reduces missed opportunities, and improves documentation accuracy – all while ensuring enterprise-grade security.” www. intelligentcio. com INTELLIGENTCIO NORTH AMERICA
