Solution Proposed

  • Utilize Azure Open AI GPT 4o model for document summarization.
  •  
  • Implement Machine Learning (ML) models to identify critical information for text classification and entity recognition.
  •  
  • Integrate with BI tools like Tableau or Power BI for visualization and reporting.
  •  
  • Engineering efforts to ensure seamless data flow and system integration.

Outcome

  • Reduction in manual summarization time by 80%.
  •  
  • Improved accuracy by eliminating manual typos and errors in capturing critical information.
  •  
  • Enhanced decision-making with real-time summarized insights.
  •  
  • Seamless integration with existing BI systems, improving overall workflow efficiency.

Design & Thinking Wins

  • Successful deployment in cross-functional manufacturing plants.
