Rockwell Automation and Accenture’s Industry X.0 announced plans to collaborate for the development of a digital offering designed to help industrial clients further transform their connected enterprise.

This partnership is designed to leverage the expertise of both companies to deliver new solutions for increased industrial supply chain optimization.  By providing a single provider of digital solutions, the collaboration between these two companies will help to enable industrial clients to more effectively leverage the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and help to drive measurable growth outcomes.

Based on industry feedback to these types of digital offerings, the two companies have begun working together to develop solutions and services that help to create value along the industrial value chain. To date, the collaboration has yielded a prototype for supply chain management designed to help deliver supplier cost optimization and an improved ability to track the exact movements of products, which are two important areas of investment for industrial companies seeking growth.

Rockwell Automation will provide 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.
