Event Description

Thursday, March 21
US Start Time: 7 a.m. PDT | 10 a.m. EDT
International Start Time: 3 p.m. CET | 7:30 p.m. IST

Automation project management is being transformed by Universal Automation, which brings engineering efficiency to systems integrators in the design/build phase and operational effectiveness to end users in the operate/maintain phase.

Supported by a community of automation users, technology vendors and universities, Universal Automation leverages the IEC 61499 standard to design distributed applications using “plug and produce” software components that are independent from the hardware on which they execute. 

Join us for a panel discussion that explores how Universal Automation is transforming the project delivery landscape. Learn how plug-and-produce software bridges the gap between IT and OT systems by creating vendor-independent and portable solutions as robust as any proprietary Operational Technology solution. Hear from a systems integrator leveraging Schneider Electric’s first universal automation solution, EcoStruxure Automation Expert, and ask questions of the experts.
