Use of the Pla’cello® data analytics platform, which was released internally in 2018, is spreading throughout the company as a tool which makes it easy for anyone to analyze a variety of data collected from plants. The platform uses a process of data accumulation, data preparation, and data visualization of plant data which makes it possible for users to develop their own systems in a graphical user interface (GUI) environment.
This ease of use has accelerated its popularity, and today, four years since the initial launch, it has been used by more than 1,800 people internally for more than 100 DX projects.
The development of Pla’cello® was initially outsourced, but later switched to in-house production. This has enabled us to respond flexibly to specification changes and to reduce development costs and time. The following two recently released applications also incorporate agile development methods and are developed completely in-house.

*Visual Data Pipeline, which enables data preparation to be performed via GUI
*Simple Dashboard, which visualizes data and shares with many people

Going forward, we plan to look beyond plant time-series data and incorporate IT data like internal accounting systems. We will make maximum use of Pla’cello® to accelerate the company’s DX Promotion.
