But what about the more complex end of things? With all their success, GloboBake has had the opportunity to invest in innovation. As part of a number of exciting research projects, GloboBake have produced a whole new gluten free bread that has exciting health benefits and tastes incredible. The complex and unstructured data these sorts of projects create can be used by specific AI bots to monitor the data in real time at the edge. On top of that, they can make predictions about the quality of the bread being used, feeding that data back into the processes involved in creating bread as it’s baked. The drawback is, they can only produce it using equipment of their own design. This equipment is more complex, and unique to their enterprise. Unlike the less complex and easily scalable elements of their traditional production and output, this needs time and care to be connected up to the central digital platform they use. Obviously this is less scalable, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t benefit from the same digital platform that handles their mass production. With the right system, they can create a digital profile of their unique equipment that can be rolled out across the globe, easily duplicating a tangle of bespoke processes without fuss.
