The combined IT-OT solution will enable manufacturers to digitize and mechanize their operations for increased efficiency, agility, and sustainability.
Omron contributes to the tie-up its extensive catalog of more than 200,000 industrial automation products and technologies, from sensors and controllers to safety devices and robots. These enable real-time acquisition and processing of data at shop floor levels to create millisecond-by-millisecond information on machine performance and production-related information. Nine decades of experience in the company make it a deep influencer in industrial automation.
Cognizant provides its IT experience such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence, digital twin modeling, and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. Having its strong consulting heritage, it can assist in large-scale digital transformation initiatives by architecting and implementing end-to-end enterprise IT infrastructure.
Together, Cognizant and Omron will provide a solution that enables data-driven real-time decision-making, minimizes machine downtime, and enhances sustainability and quality to the highest degree. The combined service comprises consulting, implementation, maintenance, and operations on a day-to-day basis in a bundled package that supports constant process improvement.
The program specifically aims at those sectors that are dependent on sophisticated production environments, including automotive, semiconductor manufacturing, electronics, life sciences, and consumer products. The partnership will be helping organizations optimize operations as well as labor shortfall, energy usage, and emissions targets.
The partnership is a reflection of increasing demand for end-to-end IT and OT convergence that not only increases performance but also supports digital transformation and ESG objectives in the long term. Together, with their respective strengths combined, Omron and Cognizant will shape the future of intelligent and sustainable production.
