Brian Holliday, managing director of Siemens Digital Industries UK and Ireland, said: “The acquisition of Senseye seriously bolsters our digital technology and service offer to industry.
“Downtime is business-critical and, in a world where data is increasingly intrinsic to success, leading companies are now benefitting from AI-driven insights to improve plant and system availability.
“Data makes a difference too when it comes to productivity and sustainability. Senseye’s PdM predictive maintenance solution is proven across multiple sectors and now enhances our Digital Enterprise approach such that we are excited about the opportunity to work in concert and add more value to our customers.”
