Here's the first announcement of Invensys's new control platform. It is the culmination of a lot of work by Peter Martin (some of which I've discussed in the past). They're saying it's their biggest announcement in 20 years. I'm just about to leave my hotel room for the official announcements at the JFK Library this afternoon, but I just checked email and saw they've already sent the announcement out. More this afternoon if the Library has wireless Internet access, I'll be blogging it.
From the release:
Invensys today introduced the world's first industrial system that goes beyond the plant or other industrial operations to provide a true enterprise view. The new InFusion enterprise control system combines industry-leading capabilities from across Invensys with advanced enterprise information and integration technologies from both Microsoft and SAP to dramatically reduce integration costs. With InFusion technology, most existing plant floor and enterprise systems can now be cost-effectively integrated into a common system. In conjunction with a suite of new performance services, Invensys' InFusion system will help industrial enterprises more effectively align plant operations and maintenance departments with the business to optimize overall asset performance management.
