E8 | IT/OT Convergence, Security, and Building a Real Enterprise UNS
Most manufacturers have an IT team and an OT team, and they rarely speak the same language. In this episode of Fuuz Unplugged, Craig sits down with Aaron Kittell, Director of IT Operations at Merz Aesthetics, and Dylan DuFresne from Abelara to talk about what it actually takes to bridge that divide. Aaron brings a rare perspective. He breaks down why security becomes a project killer when it's bolted on instead of built in, how to get leadership excited about data infrastructure, and what it was like to go through the Fuuz platform boot camp firsthand. Dylan walks through Abelara's top-down, bottom-up engagement process, and together the three dig into what a real enterprise Unified Namespace looks like when it's driven from the IT side with a clear operational vision. Raw, honest, and grounded in real experience, this one's worth your time.

E7 | Why Most CRMs Fail Manufacturers and What Rolldog Does Differently
Most manufacturers are engineering-first, sales-second, and their CRM setup shows it. In this episode of Fuuz Unplugged, Craig Scott sits down with Craig Crawford, Founder and CEO of Rolldog, to discuss how a purpose-built CRM can improve the sales process for industrial companies. They get into AI-powered opportunity scoring, the real cost of bad forecasting data, and why generic CRM tools just don't cut it in complex B2B manufacturing environments. Craig also breaks down Rolldog's white-glove implementation approach, ideal customer profile, and where the platform is headed next.
