Baker Hughes, a major oil field services company, wanted greater visibility into its manufacturing processes as well as the ability to manage production in real time. With 300 machines in seven plants, equipment issues often negatively affected manufacturing processes before the problem was noticed. And when an issue was detected, it was time-consuming to solve and resulted in lost productivity.

Solution – Deploying the smart factory

With its set of Intelligent Industry data centric and collaborative ways of designing, engineering, manufacturing and supporting products, assets and services, Capgemini together with Intel and AWS technology helped create the smart factory for Baker Hughes utilizing Capgemini’s unique, agile methodology to connect Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) into a single solution.
