Are you one of the 45% of companies that have already kicked off IIoT plans? Or, are you among the 23% with plans to invest in the next one year?

Some suppliers are building a rich set of capabilities that will address most, although typically not all, of the needed capabilities to support an Industry 4.0 production facility. Other vendors are focusing on a narrower spectrum of solutions, some in a single functional area, while still others are taking a broader approach with a focus on one or two underlying capabilities.

This Solution Selection Guide by LNS Research explores vendors with an ability to serve as an APM 4.0 platform. Use it to identify a shortlist of vendors best suited as APM 4.0 platform vendors. Read the report to see how vendor companies rate against the criteria explained in the selection guide; for example, does the vendor demonstrate:

• A compelling combination of successful multi-site and multi-geography implementations across a range of industries;
• Broad and deep functionality;
• A modern technology platform;
• A robust roadmap; and
• Adequate resources and viability to improve the offering into the future.
