    Rockwell Automation, Accenture Industry X.0 combine forces to create digital solutions for industrial clients

    Rockwell Automation and Accenture’s Industry X.0 have announced plans to team up to develop a digital offering to help industrial clients move beyond existing manufacturing solutions to transform their entire connected enterprise.

They will provide a comprehensive and cost-efficient solution for industrial companies to accurately execute, measure and transform frontline work by streamlining the flow of data from Parsable across their enterprise applications and systems.

    Large industrial companies are often challenged with massive volumes of operational data sets living across different silos throughout their organizations. Increasingly, the data is both structured and unstructured, and multimedia assets like video and photos are often added to the data mix.

    As part of the new partnership, HULFT will offer a HULFT Integrate adapter for Parsable that allows companies to establish an out-of-the-box connection between existing systems or databases, and frontline work execution data collected by the Parsable Connected Worker Platform. HULFT Integrate provides an intuitive, no-code data integration architecture that is compatible with all major data destinations and ERP systems. Its drag-and-drop user interface allows users to create cooperation flows, data conversions and processing through a simple, intuitive visual interface.

    Together, Parsable and HULFT will allow industrial companies to move, access or integrate information between Parsable and other applications and systems, without custom-coding and development time. Companies can make more informed, accurate and data-driven decisions to improve worker productivity, quality and safety.
