| | AUGUST 20196CIOReviewThe adoption of new and emerging digital technologies is widespread in Environment, health and safety industry (EHS), with most organizations already implementing Industry 4.0 and Factory of the Future initiatives. Most of the action has been in core operational areas such as asset reliability, operational efficiency, and product quality. Only about 15 percent of digitalization investments have been directed to safety and environmental use cases.This is expected to change dramatically in 2019, as EHS leaders see corporate digitalization efforts unfold, EHS software vendors embed digital technologies such as predictive analytics solutions, and specialist tech vendors offer cost-effective solutions with quick payback, e.g., augmented reality (AR) and intelligent wearables. With increased awareness of the opportunity, the benefits of getting in front of digital EHS will be more apparent and acted upon. Depending on current capability maturity level, this could be as simple as standardizing processes with cloud-based enterprise EHS software and extending it with mobile apps.While there has been much discussion about EHS 4.0 digital technology use cases; success stories have been somewhat limited. This is to be expected as early adopters work through pilots and initial roll-outs, and vendors work with co-innovation partners to bring solutions to market. For example, several EHS software vendors have been investing in Big Data/predictive analytics initiatives for a couple of years and are working with key customers on implementation.In 2019, we expect a significant number of robust case studies showing results and evidence of business value from advanced analytics for predictive risk management incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms, and other projects based on IIoT platforms and intelligent wearables. This edition brings you some of the most prominent players operating in the EHS landscape that have excelled with their service and will be significant drivers of the aforementioned trends to the mainstream.Let us know your thoughts!EditorialThe Road to Sustainable Future Copyright © 2019 ValleyMedia, Inc.
