The document discusses three dangerous trends in pharmaceutical manufacturing with IoT devices: 1) Disparate and incompatible IoT devices mean data is not contextualized, 2) While plants produce 1 TB of data daily, 99% is not analyzed due to data silos, and 3) The number of configured alarms per operator station has doubled each decade, creating unsafe levels of situational awareness. It provides recommendations to address each issue: deploy drivers to connect and contextualize equipment data, synthesize siloed data into actionable KPIs, and rationalize alarms with priority levels and audit trails.
