Unlocking the potential of Operational Excellence in labs Laboratories are pivotal to the overall performance of companies across various sectors, including pharmaceuticals, food, biotechnology, and environmental sciences. Yet, they often face significant challenges related to turnaround times, result reliability, and cost control. Traditional operational excellence methods, designed for short-cycle manufacturing, fall short in addressing the unique needs of laboratories. By implementing tailored systems specifically designed to address these challenges, labs can achieve remarkable outcomes: 20-30% productivity gains, more stable workflows, and up to 50% reductions in lead times. This transformation isn’t just about efficiency—it creates a streamlined, predictable, and resilient environment where analysts can excel, and costs are controlled.

The Assises de l'Industrie, an event organized by L'Usine Nouvelle and sponsored by EFESO Management Consultants, provided an opportunity to discuss the challenges of AI and the ability to implement it within the French industry. However, the event also highlighted the complexities involved in adopting generative AI. During his keynote, Laurent COULON, Vice President of EFESO Management Consultants, reminded that approximately 85% of AI projects in the industrial sector fail. Indeed, integrating AI into the daily operations of industrial companies often reveals a lack of a thoughtful and systematic approach to deploying these technologies. Despite its potential, governance, data quality and infrastructure costs are frequently slowing down its implementation.
