Rockwell Automation to acquire Incuity Software

Rockwell Automation has announced that it has reached an agreement to acquire Incuity Software, a privately held company that is a leading supplier of enterprise manufacturing intelligence (EMI) software.

Incuity’s software provides real-time intelligence for business decision support, facilitating improved operations and reduced production waste by providing valuable management insight into a company’s operations.

“This acquisition is a key milestone in the continued expansion of our FactoryTalk software suite,” said Kevin Roach, vice-president of Rockwell Software.

“Their newest software, IncuityEMI 2.6, easily integrates many disparate information sources from production operations and other enterprise systems. IncuityEMI 2.6 delivers unique insights into enterprise performance and key operational metrics, and empowers personnel to drill down and analyse the root causes associated with manufacturing problems.

“Combining Incuity’s capabilities with the FactoryTalk integrated production management and performance suite will create tremendous value for our customers.”

Headquartered in California, with regional offices in the US, Canada and South Africa, Incuity Software currently has more than 45,000 seats of its products installed in more than 40 countries and 13 languages.

The Incuity Software management team and their employees will become part of Rockwell Automation’s architecture and software operating segment.
