Invensys Operations Management, a provider of technology systems, software and consulting services to the process and manufacturing industries, has entered into a partnership with Cognizant, a provider of consulting, technology and business outsourcing, to improve the design, development and delivery of its products and services for customers.
Under the terms of the initial five-year agreement, Cognizant will serve as Invensys Operations Management’s global development partner. It intends to recruit and make an offer of employment to 400 Invensys Operations Management employees.
Reportedly, it will supply an array of development and maintenance services, including the development of manufacturing engineering, enterprise manufacturing intelligence, advanced applications, operations management, measurement and instrumentation, safety and critical control, supervisory control and data acquisition and distributed control systems.
Sudipta Bhattacharya, chief executive officer and president of Invensys Operations Management, said: Leveraging a reputable and proven partner like Cognizant accelerates our ability to expand capacity and move into adjacent markets. Externally, our customers and ecosystem partners should see no difference in our products or their working relationship with us.
“In fact, by leveraging our combined expertise and capabilities to deliver greater value, our customers should receive the intended benefits of this new relationship: faster time-to-market on new solutions, faster innovation, faster ramp up on resources and a deeper focus on the design and development of our strategic product portfolio.
