Accelerate Your Businesswith Wonderware, theLeader in IndustrialAutomation andInformation Software
onderware is the proven global
leader in industrial automation and
information software. Across the world,
Wonderware is powering intelligent plant
decisions in real time for industrial and
manufacturing operations, building automation,
transportation and utilities. Wonderware helps
customers improve their businesses,
productivity and performance. We have a
proven track record of constant technical
innovation, and continuously offer flexible, easy-
to-use, reliable and secure software solutions.
When you select Wonderware, you are no
longer tied to the limited offerings of just one
vendor. The key to our products' advanced
connectivity and adaptability is the underlying
open technology that enhances all of
Wonderware's offerings — the ArchestrA
software architecture.

OUR VISION: POWERINGINTELLIGENT PLANT DECISIONSIN REAL TIME
Wonderware's vision for helping you improve your
business is simple and powerful: We empower you
to make intelligent plant decisions in real time.
We do so by enabling you to access data from your
plant-floor, IT and enterprise systems — even if each
system is based on software and hardware from
different vendors. We then combine that information
into a common operations and business context,
where it can be analyzed and acted upon. Knowledge
is power — and you can use the resulting
intelligence to further improve and accelerate your
business performance. Maximize plant productivity.
Increase yields. Be more responsive to your
customers' demands. Decrease the time and costs
associated with plant maintenance. Harness your
organization's power to manage and improve your
company's production and performance in real time.
INCREASE PRODUCTION ANDPERFORMANCE
In addition to helping you optimize your operation,
Wonderware provides powerful tools with which to
analyze operation information and share it with the
right people at the right time.The result is more
intelligent decision-making throughout your
organization to help increase plant production and
the overall performance of your business.
Wonderware software solutions make the process of
accessing and taking action on that information in
real time easy and sustainable. You no longer have to
waste time and money continually re-consolidating
huge amounts of wide-ranging information from
systems that do not communicate or integrate.
LEVERAGING INDUSTRYSTANDARDS
Wonderware is a technology leader in the
application of modern open standards and
integration technologies such as ISA-S95, XML,Web
Services, OPC, and Microsoft's .NET, SQL Server,
SharePoint and BizTalk technologies.We leverage
these open standards, along with the industry's
largest collection of plant-floor networks and device
interfaces, to help you create maintainable, secure
applications that easily integrate with your company's
existing production, IT and business systems.
“Before Wonderware, it would take days to add a newpiece of equipment to the control system — now I can
do that in a matter of minutes.”Michael Higgins, NUCOR STEEL

WONDERWARE ANDMICROSOFT: A LONGSTANDINGRELATIONSHIP
Wonderware's relationship with Microsoft began in
1987 when Wonderware developed the first
industrial human-machine interface based on the
Microsoft Windows platform. Since then,
Wonderware has remained dedicated to providing
robust, easy-to-use industrial software based on
Microsoft technology. Microsoft provides support to
Wonderware in the form of architectural guidance,
design and development support, technical support,
product roadmap coordination, and scalability
testing of Wonderware software.
Because of its long-standing relationship with
Microsoft,Wonderware has access to Microsoft's
ongoing development plans and provides feedback
on the suitability of certain system features and
functions for the manufacturing market.The result is
high-quality software that works and evolves with
Microsoft software and has been thoroughly tested
with Microsoft systems, in sync with the ongoing
Microsoft development roadmap.
In 2003,Wonderware's parent company Invensys
joined forces with Microsoft to accelerate the
development of solutions and services that improve
the real-time exchange of useful information both
inside and across manufacturing environments.
Working together, the two companies are investing
resources to optimize the development of Invensys
toolsets, applications, systems and solutions that
utilize ArchestrA technology on top of Microsoft
platforms and products.
"In just a short time, the accelerated, industry-wide
adoption of ArchestrA technology has demonstrated
Invensys' long-running track record of successfully
developing go-to-market solutions based on the
Microsoft platform," said Charles Johnson, worldwide
managing director of manufacturing at Microsoft.
"As ArchestrA technology continues to spread throughout
the marketplace and enhance manufacturing
performance, Microsoft and Invensys will work diligently
to make certain each new generation of solutions
focuses on meeting manufacturing industry challenges
— from providing real-time visibility into plant floors to
improving enterprise collaboration — and result in new
advancements and successes for our customers."
As part of this alliance,Wonderware has achieved
Microsoft Gold Certification — the highest
certification level that Microsoft offers — and is
collaborating closely with the software giant on
technology evolution with an industrial focus.
All of Wonderware's latest products leverage the
industry standards-based ArchestrA technology,
in which Invensys has invested tens of millions of
dollars in research and development. ArchestrA
technology extends the life of legacy industrial
systems and significantly decreases the costs
associated with integrating and evolving systems
and applications. By providing a unified
environment, offerings built upon this
software architecture empower
decision-makers to achieve their
business goals without abandoning prior
investments in automation systems,
production processes or intellectual property.
The ArchestrA software architecture offers a single
toolset for virtually all industrial and manufacturing
applications.The ArchestrA architecture integrates
multiple vendors' hardware, software, systems and
applications with very little engineering effort and
facilitates easy access to all of this information in a
user-defined context to provide manufacturing and
business intelligence.As a result, rather than spending
hours piecing together data from a wide variety of
sources, engineering and IT departments can focus on
increasing the company's performance, productivity
and profitability.
Even better, the applications can be easily
re-used from project to project.
These applications can scale both in
functionality — from basic operational
information management to sophisticated
real-time supply-chain interactions — and in
size — from a single production line to an entire
plant to multiple plants or facilities.What's more, the
ArchestrA architecture enables open yet secure
integration and real-time information flow between
virtually all of your production and performance
management applications.
