ABB Industrial IT will provide customers with integrated hardware, software and engineering solutions, project management, training, spare parts and service. Products and technologies will be divided into approximately 30 functional categories, each dedicated to a specific sector of the company’s production or administrative activity. ABB then brings each device or piece of software in line with Industrial IT standards to make sure that it integrates perfectly with the rest of the products. Numerous benefits are to be had from a high level information system like Industri- al IT that would be difficult to achieve with currently available management solutions.
