Smart manufacturing customer spotlight

The Challenge

A global tools manufacturer was falling behind in terms of speed and impact.

Cognizant’s Solution

We designed an integrated cloud platform for gathering and analyzing information from disparate factories without disrupting the business. We interconnected this network of plants. And we inventoried production equipment to help collect data.

The Results

We accelerated initial deployment to 11 locations in 18 months across plants in the US and UK and we generated $200M in value-based savings over 36 months.
