In this fireside chat with Giuseppe Ianni, Marc Kase, CIO, Altman Plants, shared how aligning IT closely with business objectives is helping the company apply AI, analytics, and custom software development where they can have the greatest impact.
Key Takeaways
Business Alignment Creates a Stronger Foundation for AI: Altman Plants began with a clear understanding of its company objectives and how IT could contribute to them. This alignment helps ensure AI is applied to meaningful business challenges rather than pursued simply for the sake of innovation.
A Connected Technology Stack Expands What IT Can Deliver: With control across custom applications, mobile tools, and production planning systems, IT has visibility into how technology supports the broader operation. That foundation creates more opportunities to combine AI and analytics with existing systems to improve outcomes.
AI Becomes One Tool in a Broader Transformation Strategy: Rather than treating AI as the sole answer, Altman Plants is using it alongside analytics and custom software development to address business needs. This practical approach allows technology teams to focus on where they can create measurable value and scale improvements over time.
