In the report’s inaugural edition, Schneider Electric was positioned as a leading contender and a top three provider among the 10 companies that were considered in the report. Scoring was based on product strategy and ability to execute.

“We are a pioneer in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and our placement in this Navigant Research report is a testament to the breadth and versatility of our Enterprise APM platform and the value it provides for our customers,” said Kim Custeau, Director of Asset Management, Schneider Electric. “Our proven ability to seamlessly integrate with existing systems and deliver continuous return on asset investments has enabled our customers to achieve significant savings in maintenance costs and move from reactive to predictive maintenance strategies.”

Schneider Electric’s Enterprise APM leverages IIoT to close the loop between business and operations in an end-to-end platform that allows for open integration. With Enterprise APM, industrial customers in the power, oil and gas, water wastewater, metals, mining and minerals, and other industries are able to maximize their return on assets by reducing unscheduled downtime, increasing asset utilization and streamlining operations.

“Utilities are currently facing an evolving marketplace and regulatory challenges, so ensuring optimal asset performance is critical,” said Lauren Callaway, Research Analyst, Navigant Research. “Successful APM vendors are able to harness big data and predictive analytics to produce valuable performance insights, allowing utilities to drive more value from existing resources.”
