System integration is critical when implementing complex systems that consist of multiple subsystems. Process and data integrity can only be achieved by seamless integration.

 

PhenoKey integration services focus on seamless integration of subsystems from various manufacturers. PhenoKey experts take a coordinating role to ensure that both the physical and digital integration are robust and succesfull. 

A major change when automating a process is the increased dependability on technology. Managing maintenance and quick resolvement of issues is critical to minimize the process disruptions and optimize the running costs.

 

PhenoKey can also coordinate all maintenance and support activities for the implemented systems. This reduces the load on the clients organization, and optimizes the process of root cause analysis and error mitigation.
