Data Silos
Isolated data collections within a department or software that are not networked with other systems in the company.
Data silos prevent a holistic view. Example: Maintenance does not know that the spare part has already been ordered by purchasing because the systems do not communicate.
ADAM breaks down silos. It acts as an intelligent layer over existing systems (ERP, SCADA, document management) and links them. The user has a "Single Source of Truth" in ADAM without needing to replace legacy systems.
