A targeted investment supported by the European Union and Emilia-Romagna Region
In complex industries, effective decision-making relies not on intuition, but on data, mathematical models and structured methodology. As data volumes expand, translating information into swift, precise strategic choices becomes paramount. Achieving this requires a robust, secure and continuous infrastructure.
This requirement drove the launch of the project “Implementations of systems and processes for operational efficiency and positioning”, co-financed by the European Union and the Emilia-Romagna Region under the PR FESR 2021-2027 programme (Action 1.2.3). This initiative assists regional enterprises in adopting advanced digital technologies.
Through a phased, multi-faceted investment, Optit reinforced its technological foundation by introducing Industry 4.0 enabling technologies. The objective was to measurably elevate our maturity level: streamlining internal operations, raising service quality standards and consolidating Optit’s position in supporting its supply chain.
AI, Hybrid cloud and Certified security: our key achievements
The project progressed across three strategic pillars:
Productivity: We integrated artificial intelligence into our software development environments. Automating repetitive coding tasks delivers an estimated 5-10% increase in programming efficiency, allowing teams to concentrate on high-value deliverables.
Reliability: We transitioned to a unified hybrid cloud architecture—combining public and private resources under a single vendor—supported by a continuous Network Operations Centre (NOC) service coordinated directly with our internal IT department. This ensures ongoing monitoring, mitigates operational risks, minimises downtime and reduces post-sales maintenance costs.
Security: We implemented secure coding and vulnerability testing tools and, most notably, we have achieved ISO 27001 certification while accelerating alignment with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. This guarantees robust data protection and unlocks access to previously inaccessible industrial sectors.
Enhanced value for clients and the entire supply chain
These operational enhancements directly translate into more reliable, continuous and secure services for our clients.
Our software measures, models and optimises complex operations, ranging from logistics planning to resource flows across the energy, transport and environmental sectors. These solutions actively reduce waste, energy consumption and carbon emissions throughout the supply chain. Every infrastructure upgrade directly enhances the quality of the decisions we enable.
This embodies our approach to Decision Intelligence: combining mathematical rigour with advanced cloud architecture to turn business complexity into actionable, rapid and measurable decisions. Strengthening our technical core serves one overarching goal: empowering decision-makers to choose the right path, especially when the stakes are high.
