What is Invensys?

Over the past few months we've had quite a few customers ask us what this Invensys thing is all about and is Wonderware no more? I thought I would spend some time discussing what all of this means to you.

China Ministry of Railways Utilizes System Platform
October 20, 2011
Beijing, China – Chinese spectators at the August 2008 Olympic games cheered their country's athletes as they won a total of 100 medals in just 10 days. But even before the competition began, another historic record was set: the new railway connecting Beijing and Tianjin reached speeds of 350 kilometers per hour (220 miles per hour). The 120-kilometer trip (approximately 100 miles) now takes just 30 minutes, saving travelers 40 minutes each way.

Across any industry or business, the attainment of this linkage has not been fully realized, primarily because the processes, methodologies and systems put in place to facilitate these components of the business were never developed with the idea of linking them in real-time.
Business variables of industry transitioning to real time
October 5, 2011
Author: Dr. Peter Martin – Invensys
Industrial operations primary business variables, such as production value, energy cost, and feedstock or materials cost, throughout the 1990s and early 2000s were essentially constants over extended periods of time. For example, in the 1990s it was common for industrial plants to establish long-term contracts with their energy suppliers that would set a constant value for the cost of energy per unit consumed for the entire contract period. This contract was typically 6 months or even a year in duration. The result, industrial plants could focus strictly on reducing the consumption of energy without considering the cost per consumption unit...
