E01: Introducing The OT Crowd

Meet the crowd. Jarie asks the questions you're thinking (and learns out loud). David is the OT veteran who has seen the alarm floods, the vendor lock-in, and the migration that almost went sideways (and knows a thing or two about O-PAS). Andrew co-chaired OPAF's Technical Working Group and came up on the I/O vendor side, so he knows how O-PAS gets written (and argued over). In this first episode, they explain why the show exists: break-room talk about industrial automation, not another vendor keynote. They walk through the format, starting with the five-part What Is OPA? series, followed by guest episodes with operators, integrators, and standards people. They also cover what the show will (and won't) cover.
