Today, Rockwell Automation, Inc (NYSE: ROK) and Accenture’s
(NYSE: ACN) Industry X.0 announced plans to team up to develop a
digital offering to help industrial clients move beyond existing
manufacturing solutions to transform their entire connected
enterprise.
The engagement is designed to capitalize on the expertise of
both companies to deliver new capabilities for greater industrial
supply chain optimization. By providing customers with a single,
trusted provider of digital solutions, the collaboration will
enable clients to more effectively leverage the Industrial Internet
of Things (IIoT) and ultimately drive measurable growth
outcomes.
Encouraged by initial industry feedback to these types of
digital offerings, the two companies have begun working together to
develop solutions and services that create value along the
industrial value chain. To date, the collaboration has yielded,
among other early-stage successes, a prototype for supply chain
management designed to deliver supplier cost optimization and an
improved ability to track the exact movements of products – two
particularly important areas of investment for industrial companies
seeking growth.
“Our customers are looking for measurable business outcomes when
they invest in our software, products, and solutions. Together with
Accenture, we will be able to help industrial companies quantify
the financial benefits of their investment and to capture this
value at speed and scale,” said Blake Moret, Rockwell Automation
Chairman and CEO. “By teaming up, we reduce complexity, reduce
risk, and achieve better results with comprehensive enterprise-wide
expertise.”
Rockwell Automation will provide leading industrial automation
technology and domain expertise, including FactoryTalk
InnovationSuite IIoT software, and analytics solutions. It will
also bring network services, operational technology security, and
application development, installation, integration and support.
Accenture will provide enterprise business and technical
capabilities, including consulting, analytics, application
development, systems integration, change management and
support.
“Industrial companies that want to grow need faster and more
efficient production and operations processes. These processes also
need to allow them to develop new types of products and services,”
said Mike Sutcliff, group chief executive of Accenture Digital.
“Our collaboration with Rockwell Automation will offer digital
solutions and services that will go a long way in helping our
clients achieve this enterprise transformation.”
