Software AG (see video below) is to provide industrial internet of things solutions to GeicoTaikisha, one of the world’s leading designers and builders of automated auto body paintshops.
The companies say the agreement will help GeicoTaikisha to digitalise the entire painting process for its customers’ vehicle production plants.
GeicoTaikisha needed to connect its facilities, collect data and develop value-added applications to give new services to its customers.
It identified ADAMOS IIoT – powered by Cumulocity IoT from Software AG – as the solution to help it achieve those goals for its combination of edge analytics with cloud management.
ADAMOS is a consortium of global leaders in the mechanical and plant engineering market.
Daryush Arabnia, CEO and president of Geico, says: “It is with great satisfaction that GeicoTaikisha records the finalization of the partnership with Software AG Italia, one of the most established global players in the provision of software solutions.
“Innovation has always been the distinguishing feature of our company’s approach to management, especially in a competitive scenario such as today’s.
“On the other hand, thanks to the innovation lever we are able to support and increase the team spirit of our employees who, in a climate of absolute sharing, can devote time and energy to the functions with greater added value.
“This is the only way we can perform in line with the standards required by every manufacturer who wants to offer customisation to the mass market.”
Giuliano Ballarini, head of Software AG Italy, says: “GeicoTaikisha is aiming to grow through digital transformation and we are here to support it every step of the way. Cumulocity IoT is a key part of Industry 4.0 initiatives and this is just the beginning of our collaboration with Geico Taikisha.
