Why Invest in Data Quality Validation in Production Plants? Valid data is the basis for determining key figures and evaluating plant effectiveness in digitized production plants. Values generated in the production process from sensor data of machines are usually not validated or missing. Ultimately, no correct statements can be made about the efficiency of the machines and plants!
