Many organizations struggle with fragmented data, sluggish integrations, and disconnected systems that create friction for both teams and customers. These challenges hinder the ability to deliver timely, personalized, and reliable customer experiences at scale. How can businesses overcome data complexity without adding more cost, time, or technical debt?
Mark Ovaska, a technology and product executive with deep experience in data platforms, integrations, and AI-driven systems, explores these issues. He explains why great customer experiences depend on connected, portable data and how standardization reduces friction and unlocks scale. Mark shares how AI can map and connect systems in real time, eliminate redundant integration work, and shift focus away from "how many integrations exist" toward readiness and flexibility. His guidance centers on treating data infrastructure as foundational plumbing that enables faster innovation, agentic workflows, and long-term growth.
In this episode of The Customer Wins podcast, Richard Walker interviews Mark Ovaska, Co-founder and CEO of Precept, about simplifying data integrations to power better customer experiences.
