ABB LAUNCHES ABB ABILITY™ INDUSTRIAL KNOWLEDGE VAULT, A GENERATIVE AI SOLUTION TO SAFEGUARD EXPERTISE AND EMPOWER WORKFORCES

ABB today announced the introduction of ABB Ability™ Industrial Knowledge Vault, a generative AI-driven solution designed to solve the growing challenge of knowledge loss in industrial environments. Industrial Knowledge Vault, using Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service, can store, retain and safeguard critical expertise while actively transforming that knowledge into step-by-step workflows. This enables workers to quickly access and apply best practices, empowering businesses to run leaner while preserving safe operations. As experienced employees retire, the loss of decades of collective knowledge threatens operational continuity, efficiency and innovation if not properly addressed. Traditional documentation methods are often fragmented, requiring significant manual effort to compile, interpret and apply. Industrial Knowledge Vault addresses this challenge by capturing and structuring expertise in a centralized, secure repository that is easily accessible through natural language conversations, enabling engineers and operators to perform tasks more efficiently. Developed in collaboration with Microsoft, Industrial Knowledge Vault uses ABB Genix™ CoPilot and Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service to analyze and synthesize information into actionable procedures, allowing workers to retrieve insights effortlessly through an intuitive, conversational interface. The solution enables effortless workflow generation using natural language input to create structured procedures in seconds, eliminating the need for manual document parsing. Additionally, its policy and procedure management capabilities ensure up-to-date, role-based access to critical operational knowledge, streamlining compliance and version control. It also provides real-time guidance and decision support, empowering workers with in-the-moment insights, reducing the learning curve, and enhancing operational performance. The solution can be deployed across cloud, on premise or ABB SaaS.
