It’s all about risk

Lower Your Risk and Improve Reliability

Risk vs reward—wouldn’t you like to spend your time focused on what is happening instead of worrying about what might happen?


Why Modernize?

Better Performance, Greater Flexibility, and More Informed Decisions

Justifying the risk and expense of control system upgrades is a challenge. Legacy systems operate in isolation and outdated equipment is costly to run. However, the threat of obsolescence may seem less daunting than upgrading. Today, smart manufacturing may cause you to rethink that.

Modern technologies highlighted in Industrial Internet of Things strategies are already helping forward-thinking manufacturers reap the benefits of Smart Manufacturing. To meet the demands of modern manufacturing, companies are looking to new technologies to optimize their processes and equip their people for higher performance and efficiency.

Where to Begin?

Review Your Installed Base to Address Your Biggest Obsolescence Risks First

To understand your obsolescence risk, begin by conducting a lifecycle analysis of your equipment, spare parts, and software inventory. A thorough review of this information will help you prioritize your modernization needs and goals. We can help you shave weeks or even months off the process compared to doing it internally. You can even see a digital view of your installed base evaluation in My Equipment within MyRockwell.com

.
