MIPU has been awarded the Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award 2025 (MIMA) in the Add Value! category, promoted by Microsoft Germany and Roland Berger.
The award recognizes MIPU’s role in the development of an advanced Predictive Factory model for the agri-food industry, delivered in collaboration with Cereal Docks.
The Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Awards celebrate industrial projects that generate concrete value through the effective use of digital technologies. The 2025 edition marks the sixth year of the initiative, which highlights excellence in intelligent and sustainable manufacturing across Europe.
At the core of the awarded project is Rebecca, MIPU’s predictive intelligence platform. Rebecca integrates industrial data, IoT, artificial intelligence and mathematical models to support more efficient, reliable and sustainable production systems.
By enabling accurate predictions of energy consumption and maintenance needs, the solution delivered measurable results at plant level. The key outcomes are:
-
8% reduction in energy consumption, without hardware investments
-
20% decrease in maintenance working hours
-
98% reduction in unexpected machine failures
“These results show how predictive intelligence can turn data into real operational value,” said Giulia Baccarin, CEO of MIPU Predictive Hub. “The Predictive Factory is a concrete answer to the challenge of combining industrial performance with sustainability.”
The project confirms MIPU’s approach to AI for manufacturing: practical, scalable and designed to support complex industrial environments with data-driven decision-making.
The award ceremony will take place on April 1st at Hannover Messe, where MIPU will officially receive the Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award 2025.
