Technology Architecture for Manufacturing Excellence

ARC can help you plan for the technology architecture best suited for your company. With our unmatched talent and 3rd party perspective, we have the experience to guide you with:

  • Technology Assessment
  • Migration Strategies
  • Maturity Assessment of Architecture
  • Adoption of Industry Standards
  • Interoperability Strategies: Developing a Roadmap

ARC can guide your choice of technology with assessment of appropriate applications.  We have researched over 100 domain areas and gained an understanding of the products, technologies, and business drivers.  Using our expertise, you lower your risk.

Your choice of architecture sets your strategic direction and drives total cost of ownership (TCO), your ability to adapt to change, and eventually business viability.  A good architecture allows you to keep legacy systems while adding new technologies and business processes.  Consideration is needed for application procurement, implementation, maintenance, and continuous improvement.  ARC has developed well thought-out architectures by industry segment to insure low TCO, high flexibility, and potential for new business initiatives.
