“Just one in 10 plants has an IoT strategy in place or is planning to put a strategy in place”
 Rockwell Automation has been developing its Connected Enterprise for nearly a decade. Yet even though it has integrated information technology systems with operations systems and devices many years ago, none can be found  —  at its corporate headquarters, in the IT department, or on the plant floor — who thinks we’re finished. The Connected Enterprise is a big driver of Rockwell’s success — today and tomorrow.
Why? Because it’s not just a revolution, it’s an evolution as well. According to Beth Parkinson, Market Development Director, Connected Enterprise, Rockwell Automation, “Companies that follow The Rockwell Automation five-stage Connected Enterprise Execution Model —with its assistance and the help of partners such as Cisco Systems — recognise that The Connected Enterprise is a foundation upon which to build great things.” Ms Parkinson observed that the Connected Enterprise evolves because the business world mutates at digital speed:
TechnologiesThe capability and affordability of plant-floor Ethernet and smart devices, powerful computing solutions, and networking technologies are constantly improving. Each information technology/operational technology (IT/OT) enhancement will improve enterprise visibility and decision-making.
