Rockwell Automation (Rockwell) delivers AI-powered water
monitoring technologies, enabling water utilities to optimize
system efficiency, reduce leaks, and meet sustainability goals
through innovative digital solutions.
SAN
ANTONIO, Dec. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost &
Sullivan recently researched the smart water monitoring
industry and, based on its findings,
recognizes Rockwell with the 2024 Global Competitive
Strategy Leadership Award. Rockwell is a globally recognized
provider of innovative industrial automation and digital
transformation solutions that modernize water infrastructure by
leveraging advanced analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and
machine learning (ML) to help utilities optimize operations, reduce
inefficiencies, and meet sustainability goals.
Rockwell addresses the critical challenges of water utilities by
offering a comprehensive suite of tools to enhance operational
resilience and productivity. Its intelligent monitoring and control
technologies enable real-time data collection and analysis, helping
utilities detect leaks, predict system failures, and optimize water
distribution. By integrating IoT and digital twin platforms,
Rockwell empowers water companies to simulate real-world
conditions, detect anomalies, and respond proactively to system
issues, driving better water management outcomes. Rockwell's
disruptive solutions, such as Allen‑Bradley Hardware and
FactoryTalk® software, are particularly valuable as global water
companies face increasing pressures from aging infrastructure,
urbanization, and climate change.
Moreover, the company's focus on sustainability and digital
transformation has become a cornerstone of its strategy, aligning
perfectly with the needs of water utilities striving to meet strict
environmental regulations. Rockwell's solutions contribute to
long-term environmental goals, such as reducing non-revenue water
and enhancing the resilience of water distribution networks.
"The company identified that many water companies are operating
legacy equipment and infrastructure, which can result in
inefficiencies, leaks, and potential failures, as well as a lack of
visibility into the systems. To drive efficiency and better
visibility, Rockwell Automation is modernizing these systems with
intelligent monitoring and control technologies," said Victoria Courtade, industry analyst at Frost
& Sullivan.
Rockwell's focus on predictive maintenance has become
increasingly important as the demand for smarter, more efficient
water systems continues to grow. Its tools analyze data from
sensors across the water distribution network to detect signs of
wear, pressure irregularities, or potential leaks before they
escalate into significant problems. As a result, this
forward-thinking technology enhances the overall reliability of
water systems while helping companies address challenges associated
with aging infrastructure and rapid urbanization.
Furthermore, the company's solutions seamlessly integrate with
existing systems, providing a unified platform where water
utilities can visualize and manage their assets in real time. This
comprehensive approach helps utilities improve operational
efficiency and aligns with broader sustainability goals by reducing
water loss and energy consumption.
"Rockwell Automation's value proposition closes existing
operational gaps. Its integrated and robust portfolio optimizes
decision-making through advanced analytics across various
stakeholders. There is a growing demand for predictive maintenance
solutions in the industry. Hence, the company focuses on delivering
AI-powered tools to anticipate equipment failures and optimize
maintenance schedules," noted Valentina
Barcia, best practices research analyst at Frost &
Sullivan.
Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the
company that has leveraged competitive intelligence to successfully
execute a strategy that results in stronger market share,
competitive brand positioning, and customer satisfaction.
"We are honored to receive the 2024 Global Competitive Strategy
Leadership Award from Frost & Sullivan," said Emmanuel
Guilhamon, vice president, sustainability, Rockwell Automation.
"This important recognition highlights our commitment to our
customers' environmental and water stewardship and to transforming
water infrastructure through cutting-edge industrial automation and
digital transformation offerings. Through our unique portfolio of
integrated solutions that combine Allen-Bradley hardware,
FactoryTalk software, and sustainability consulting services, we
