A strengthened relationship between two global leaders brings a 'complete industrial package' to the industrial automation market.
In one of the most far-reaching developments in the industrial automation market, Adroit Technologies and Schneider Electric have formed a strategic alliance that combines their world-class products, industry experience and technical expertise. Prior to the agreement the two companies have, through collaboration on the Schneider ModConnect programme, enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship that has already delivered significant business benefits to their respective customers.
According to Dave Wibberley, MD of Adroit Technologies, the new alliance is a logical step forward. "Schneider Electric," says Wibberley, "is widely respected as a global leader in electrical distribution, industrial control and automation, while Adroit Technologies has an enviable reputation in the design, implementation and support of open automation software. Together, we can offer our customers a complete industrial package that includes productivity tools such as Adroit, Opus and Onestep Generator. In addition to complementary technology and expertise, what makes the alliance work is a proven culture fit."
Managing the alliance will be the task of Johan Vermeire who has more than ten years' Schneider PLC experience. Vermeire says, "Of significant value to Adroit Technologies' clients will be access to Schneider's Onestep Generator, which is a new and unique object-oriented software program that translates project functional specifications into a process control system design."

Onestep Generator is a component-based tool that manages the process control system application throughout the software life-cycle. Its incremental compile and generation feature allows engineers to add, delete and upgrade the process control system throughout the operation and maintenance phase of the software's life-cycle. By providing a uniform platform for system design and component specification, Onestep Generator facilitates a common design methodology among all project engineering staff and others involved in process design, regardless of their specific discipline. By allowing all parties to define the requirements of the process, software mistakes are minimised, while implementation cycles and engineering costs are significantly reduced.
