HCL Technologies i partnerskap med Critical Manufacturing

Stockholm, 8 januari, 2020 – HCL Technologies (HCL), ett ledande globalt teknologiföretag, har ingått ett partnerskap med teknikföretaget Critical Manufacturing för att kunna erbjuda konsulting, utvecklingstjänster och implementeringstjänster. Partnerskapet omfattar Critical Manufacturings Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)-kunder i den komplexa tillverkningen för hi-tech, halvledare och tillverkning av medicintekniska produkter.

– För att tillverkare fullt ut skall kunna utnyttja potentialen i industri 4.0, är MES en kritisk komponent. Idag byggs en ökande intelligensnivå in i MES, när IoT och AI spelar avgörande roller för att utforma tillverkningsindustrin. HCL:s partnerskap med Critical Manufacturing ger en välbehövlig och efterfrågad sammanslagning inom Industry 4.0 där MES ingår för att uppnå en digitalisering mellan olika system, samtidigt som den kan skapa en holistisk miljö för informationsutbyte i realtid och samtidigt fatta effektiva beslut, säger GH Rao, VD, teknik och FoU-tjänster, HCL Technologies.

– Detta partnerskap med Critical Manufacturing ger oss tillgång till en marknadsledande produkt med ett gott rykte om sig när det gäller kvalitet, tillförlitlighet och djup industriell tillämpning, samtidigt som det ger oss en möjlighet att tillhandahålla våra branschledande tekniktjänster och support. Critical Manufacturings bakgrund mappar bra till HCL Technologies plan för att alltid arbeta med partners som överträffar marknadens standard, så att vi kan erbjuda hela bredden av våra erbjudanden till våra gemensamma kunder, säger GH Rao.

Partnerskapet gör det möjligt för HCL Technologies att erbjuda tjänster, konsultation, utbildning och eftermarknadsstöd till komplexa segment, särskilt inom det högteknologiska och medicinska området. Partnerskapet kommer inledningsvis att fokusera på Nordamerika och Europa och kommer snabbt att skalas upp för att kunna bli ett globalt erbjudande.

- Vi är glada över att kunna addera HCL Technologies till vårt partnerskapsprogram. Vår strategi är att arbeta med några få partners med djup kompetens för att kunna leverera tillverkning av digital transformation med MES och utnyttja deras kapacitet på global basis. Detta säkerställer standardisering i både tillvägagångssätt och utförande av deras tjänster. HCL är ett välkänt företag på marknaden för både konsultation och implementering. Critical Manufacturing har vuxit snabbt under det senaste året och vi behövde en partner som kunde matcha vår skalbarhet. HCL Technologies är en sådan partner, säger Francisco Almada Lobo, VD för Critical Manufacturing.
