We understand that choosing the right system upgrade can feel overwhelming.
Many manufacturers struggle to know which questions to ask first. You want to improve production efficiency, reliability, and performance. You also need a trusted partner with proven automation expertise.
That’s why we created a set of key automation assessment questions. These questions reveal how an automation partner supports your process and goals.
They also show how a provider plans, communicates, and delivers results. From initial design through long-term support, the right partner makes the difference.
Process Optimization & Data Collection: What specific methods or technologies do you use to capture critical process data, and how do you use that data to improve efficiency and reduce costs for the customer?
Project Life Cycle & Support: Can you describe the typical project engagement process, from initial design and panel fabrication to start-up, commissioning, and ongoing post-implementation support?
Customization & Specific Requirements: Given our specific industry requirements (e.g., sanitary standards), how does your team ensure that the automation solutions are customized to meet our precise needs and compliance standards?
Troubleshooting & Risk Management: What is your philosophy for handling intermittent faults or unexpected downtime during commissioning and production, and how do you mitigate potential system failures?
System Integration & Legacy Equipment: How does Newell Automation approach integrating new automation technologies with a customer’s existing or legacy infrastructure, especially when dealing with mixed-vendor equipment?
