Software Solutions for All Branches of Industry

Software solutions for process automation extend measurement and system technologies by turning device signals, diagnostics, and operational context into usable information across the plant lifecycle. This portfolio is positioned to help run operating processes at full potential by combining data acquisition, storage, visualization, reporting, and connectivity into purpose-built applications that scale from a single unit to multi-site deployments.

A core segment is inventory management software focused on optimizing inventories and the supply chain. Central data management and visualization of stored data supports continuous monitoring of quantities, trending, and alert indicators tied to stock availability, enabling timely replenishment and reduced working capital without sacrificing availability. Typical deployments consolidate measurements from tanks, silos, and bulk storage areas and present a coherent inventory picture for operations, planning, and logistics coordination.

Another segment targets device lifecycle performance: device calibration, configuration, and condition monitoring are supported through tools that provide valuable asset information over the entire life cycle. This supports consistent commissioning practices, repeatable parameter management, and structured documentation while helping optimize the installed base during both commissioning and operation phases. Typical applications include maintaining calibration histories, streamlining device setup, and leveraging diagnostic and status information to prioritize maintenance and reduce unplanned downtime.

Energy management software addresses the gas, steam, and water circuits that provide specific forms of energy to operating processes in every industry. By efficiently using and monitoring energy use, these tools support cost reduction initiatives and provide transparency into consumption patterns, losses, and abnormal conditions that would otherwise remain hidden in aggregated utility bills. Common use cases include monitoring steam systems, compressed air or utility water networks, and energy-intensive production areas where measurement-driven insight supports continuous improvement.

Complementary offerings focus on integration and configuration efficiency. Software is available for easy connection of field devices to process visualization systems via standard interfaces, and for configuring recorders, temperature transmitters, samplers, and other system components. These functions support a consistent digital thread from field instrumentation to visualization and reporting layers, reducing configuration variability and enabling standardized data handling practices across heterogeneous instrument fleets.
