Strategic Relationship Focuses on Improving Manufacturing Efficiency and Throughput
August 20, 2014 Control Station today announced the formation of a strategic distribution and support agreement with ISIS Automation Limited. ISIS has been designated as the exclusive distribution partner in Europe for Control Station’s portfolio of process diagnostic and optimization solutions. As global economic conditions continue to improve the relationship positions Control Station to capitalize on demand for technologies that improve manufacturing efficiency and throughput.
Indicators point to improved conditions in numerous quarters of the global economy. The United States joined China, India and other major economies in the Australasia zone that are benefiting from stronger GDP performance. While Europe continues to lag behind others in real terms, the rate of GDP growth has accelerated considerably across the zone with the United Kingdom and Germany leading the way.
Our strategy calls for world-class representation in high growth markets, shared Rick Bontatibus, Control Station’s Vice President of Global Sales. ISIS brings extensive experience in the process industries in general and with our portfolio of solutions in particular. Our partnership assures that customers throughout Europe will receive the highest level of support and satisfaction.
ISIS adds Control Station’s complete portfolio of process diagnostic and optimization products to its existing services-based offerings. ISIS has been actively supporting the needs of process manufacturers since 2010, and the group has collaborated with Control Station on a variety of projects dating back to 2012. Through those engagements ISIS has been certified on all of Control Stations products, including the PlantESP control loop performance monitoring platform. ISIS’ experience with PlantESP includes successful deployments in core process industries, including the Oil & Gas and Semiconductor segments.
We pride ourselves on delivering world-class solutions to our customers and this partnership uniquely positions ISIS to address critical challenges faced by manufacturers across Europe, stated Damien Munroe, ISIS’ Owner and Director of Integration Services.
