Preface

The overall mission of the alliance is to provide you with proven solutions that
combine field instrumentation with fieldbus networks, such as HART,
FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Profibus networks, with asset management
capabilities and Rockwell Automation’s system capabilities to provide a total
engineered solution.

Through preferred integration and support of increasing requirements for plant-
wide control, the alliance offers the following benefits:

Reduced integration costs throughout engineering, commissioning, and

start-up

Optimized plant availability and output
Ensured product quality and consistency
Optimized traceability to meet regulatory demands
Predictive maintenance through intelligent instruments

For new construction, process improvements at an existing plant, or operating
cost reductions, the alliance delivers the following:

Integration reduces risk, reduces integration costs, and protects investment

with assured interoperability. Both companies believe open systems and
standardized interfaces bring maximum benefits.

Advanced diagnostics with plant-wide support offers better visibility of

plant health and easier access to instrument diagnostics, which leads to
faster troubleshooting and improves decision-making.

Collaborative lifecycle management to design, engineer, and startup

systems faster. This collaboration increases productivity, manages
information about instrumentation assets, optimizes plant assets, and
results in a complete lifecycle management solution.
