A roadmap to Intelligent Automation
Øystein Hole, Chief Product Officer, Kongsberg
In “A Roadmap to Intelligent Automation,” Øystein Hole, Chief Product Officer at Kongsberg, explored how industrial organisations can move beyond fragmented digital initiatives toward fully integrated and intelligent operational systems.
Hole outlined how intelligent automation emerges from the convergence of data, contextual understanding, and advanced modelling. Rather than relying solely on algorithms, effective automation requires structured industrial knowledge that connects operational data, physical processes, and decision-making environments.
The session also examined how simulation and orchestration play a central role in this transformation. By combining high-fidelity models with real operational data, organisations can evaluate scenarios, optimise performance, and support more confident decision-making across complex industrial systems.
Kongsberg’s roadmap highlights a future where automation is not a single technology, but an ecosystem where data, models, and AI work together to enable more adaptive, efficient, and resilient industrial operations.
