The ability to work with multiple products across complex enterprise systems is essential in today’s global economy. Recognizing this, Cognizant has forged alliances and partnerships with leading vendors around the world in core practice areas where EMS focuses -- including product lifecycle management, manufacturing operations and embedded systems. These relationships provide our clients with a significant advantage where tightly integrated, end-to-end solutions are required -- or where pinpoint solutions are needed in specialized areas like digital manufacturing and mobile devices.
Our alliance with Invensys, for example, is key to our strategy of providing superior services to manufacturers. Through this partnership clients gain access to more than 600 operations professionals deeply involved in creating top floor to shop floor solutions as well as a powerful global development and implementation network.
Other Cognizant partnerships offer industry expertise in targeted technology areas or vertical industries like pharmaceutical s and retail operations. Such partnerships include PTC for thought leadership and delivery excellence, along with Oracle, SAP, Intel, Tradestone and Mitsubishi Electric Corp.
