At RadWaste Summit, last week, our Founder, President and CEO, Susana Navarro led a panel, “Small Businesses, Big Missions” alongside some of our senior leaders. Dr. Navarro introduced the company and recounted how Navarro went from niche nuclear safety contractor to prime contractor over the past three decades. Panelists discussed their commitment to client satisfaction and how that leads to successful project outcomes time and time again. They also highlighted the importance of agility, flexibility and responsiveness in managing and executing prime contracts. Navarro has the responsiveness of a small business, with the capabilities of a large business. They also discussed the challenges of maintaining outdated equipment and infrastructure, managing large sample volumes and implementing safety protocols, while emphasizing the importance of overcoming these challenges to maintain smooth operations. Panelists also highlighted the advantages of small business partnerships for employees, including their ability to foster professional growth and the loyalty between the company and its employees. Small businesses allow employees to grow with the company. At a small business, employees can become valuable in more than one role, which leads to a stronger, well-rounded workforce. The panelists advocated for the Department of Energy to open up their larger, more complex projects to small businesses and to acknowledge the efforts of the larger companies that collaborate with the smaller ones. This was an impactful conversation and we want to say thank you to RadWaste and all who attended the panel!

Happy to partner with ProcureScape and share the mission of ASKaFOX. 'It’s hard to discover a “good” supplier, and even harder to verify if they’re as good as the “data “suggested." "Our goal is to help companies create optionality in their supply base, so they remain resilient at a time when both paradigm shift and geopolitical tensions cause great uncertainties and disruptions.'" Indeed, trust is the key. Thanks for the occasion By the way, Oliver: did you use Claude 3 to summarize our interview? 😉 #supplychain #suppliers #supplychainrisk #supplierquality #supplychainresilience #procurement #procurementsolutions #procurementtechnology

Customer Success | AI | Digital Transformation | Asset Performance Management | Time to Value
A couple weeks ago I attended Operational Excellence in Oil & Gas. Baker Hughes / Bently Nevada, a Baker Hughes business was very busy while there! I'll post throughout the week with some of our activities. First up on the docket: A panel discussing Unlocking Efficiencies in Asset Health Management with Advanced Analytics. This was hosted by Carlos M. Gomez and included Aaron Perez, Nav Chawla, and Shawn Yates. Some key takeaways: 👉 Access to connected, quality data is key. Nav spoke about the importance of connecting various data sources - eliminating silos we as an industry have created while being diligent in quality. Data quality is essential to advanced analytics effectiveness. 👉 People will always be at the center of the equation even with technological advancements in #advancedanalytics, #machinelearning, and #artificialintelligence. This could come through idea generation or implementation. 👉 👉 Aaron highlighted how Delek US Holdings, Inc. holds internal innovation challenges to encourage their teams to get creative with problem solving. Delek takes it to the next level by implementing the top ideas and rewarding/celebrating the employees who bring the ideas forward. This encourages a culture rooted in #growthmindset, intelligent #risktaking, and #continousimprovement. 👉 👉 Advancement in AI allows it to solve complex problems without completely understanding them; however, leveraging the power of human intelligence during the design and maintenance of AI algorithms will improve your asset health management outcomes. Shawn detailed managed services or the Wizard of Oz people "behind the curtain" training and tuning AI models, so Baker Hughes customers have zero disruptions from false alarms. 👉 All our panelists discussed how #ChangeManagement is paramount to the success of implementing advanced analytics. If your organization is not culturally ready to take the #digitaltransformation leap, no amount of technology will fix the problems at hand. We need to promote cultures of curiosity and growth at every level in our organizations. But, how can we do this? 🤔 More to come in a future #opexhouston post!!! . . . #wearebakerhughes #opex #operationalexcellence #paneldiscussion #oilandgas #opexog
