Open system architecture and enhanced technology now allow industrial facilities to integrate real time controls with business systems. This integration offers significant operational and cost control advantages and is a trademark of successful companies. But designing system solutions that maximize the benefits of integration requires people who have the knowledge and experience working in both control and information system environments.
