Integrating Control and Information Systems

A convergence of new business drivers, the urgency to adhere to emerging industry and government standards and regulations and the evolution of commercial off-the-shelf information technologies has resulted in an increased focus on the critical value of information generated from the manufacturing environment.

Rockwell Automation and its strategic partners are making the conversion of manufacturing data into valuable business knowledge a much more attractive proposition- one with a wide range of real business benefits. Explore how an integrated control and information system like the one offered through the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture can help manufacturers drive costs out of production, improve regulatory compliance and respond more quickly to changing market demands.

An information-enabled control architecture and an automation-enabled suite of plant-wide information software bring significant benefits to any manufacturing organization, but premier integration between the two delivers a host of additional benefits in terms of scope of delivery, scalability and real-time information access.
