Nick Vitiello
Manufacturing Intelligence Consultant
Nick helps plants turn a PI System full of raw tags into analytics their own team can actually run, so the value does not walk out the door when he does.
About Nick
Nick has spent his career on the plant floor and in the PI System, building the PI Asset Framework models, PI Vision dashboards, and analytics that turn data operations from a mystery into a routine. He is as comfortable writing the analytics as he is training the operator who will use them at 2 a.m.
What sets his work apart is the handoff. Nick does not build tools that only he understands. He builds them to be run by the people who live in the plant every day, and he stays close enough to keep improving them as conditions change.
What Nick fixes
PI AF models that are powerful but no one is trained to run
Reports and audits still being done by hand
Dashboards the operations team does not trust
Knowledge that lives in one person's head instead of the whole team
