Project Success Story

Progress announced that long-time partner QAD is expanding its relationship with Progress and plans to deliver new value to its customers with the Progress DataRPM platform. DataRPM, acquired by Progress in March 2017, uses automated machine learning to help manufacturing and industrial organizations harness the Industrial IoT, to detect and predict machine failures before they occur, dramatically reducing downtime and increasing asset operational efficiency. This solution is a key part of Progress' strategy for helping its partners and customers build cognitive applications.

QAD provides integrated business software for manufacturing companies and serves customers in more than 100 countries, including eight out of 10 of the top auto parts manufacturers in the world. QAD's strategic agreement with Progress enables customers looking to take advantage of predictive maintenance and machine learning to leverage the DataRPM platform to improve their business.

First announced in January, Progress' cognitive-first strategy focuses on providing the technologies to enable customers and partners to quickly build modern business applications that are intelligent, adaptive and connected - creating better application experiences at dramatically lower cost.
