ML-generated metadata and Agile Governance improves data Trust and Accessibility.
- Ever have one or more of these data challenges – all team members not using or knowing which is the most up to date data input file, can’t find critical data from acquired assets for regulatory reporting, manual searching and cataloguing of acquired asset data, multiple versions of files taking up large volumes of storage?
- Digital Transformation is a step change driven by combining first principal approaches with data-driven insights to drive key business decisions. Reliable and accessible data is therefore key to drive digital transformation.
- Data-driven approaches require easy access to high quality data with reliable context for understanding. A local case study reveals that clunky file systems and fragile folder/file organization conventions create huge impediments for data science due to duplication, inconsistency and generally unreliable datasets.

Renewable-crude pathways and the role of digital traceability
-
Feedstock variability challenge: Fast-pyrolysis, HTL, and Fischer–Tropsch routes are progressing, yet small-scale plants produce highly variable crude quality (oxygen, metals, TAN, stability), creating refinery compatibility and blending risks.
-
Need for consistent, spec-compliant feed: Predictable quality is essential to protect catalysts, avoid unit upsets, and meet carbon-intensity (CI) and regulatory directives across the full supply chain.
-
Digital and blockchain-IoT solutions: A shared, tamper-evident data layer links batch IDs with lab results and custody history, enabling real-time quality visibility, preventing double counting, and providing auditor-ready proofs—delivering repeatable specs, clearer acceptance windows, and fewer disputes for refiners and offtakers.
