Technicians and Managers can now access Factory Floor Operations via an Online Virtual Interface for Monitoring and Control of Instruments and Processes.
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April 18, 2001
Jova Solutions, Inc. and Ruby Networks Inc. today announced a partnership to provide real-time management of factory-floor functions via wireless handheld devices. Jova Solutions is a software and services provider of tools for visibility and control of complex factory-floor functions. The integration of Jova Solutions's, Manufacturing Intelligence System with the Ruby Networks' Real Time Mobile Platform™ will provide instant two-way interaction between remote applications and wireless devices.
"In today’s highly competitive industries, a broad technical knowledge and the ability to act quickly are the keys to improving productivity," said Ruby Networks CEO Zornitza Stefanova. "By combining our strength in wireless technologies with Jova Solutions's expertise in manufacturing process and control applications, we will bring a new level of efficiency and freedom to manufacturing environments."
Jova Solutions will offer wireless access and control to its manufacturing customers. Current customers are in the following industries: Electronics Manufacturing Services, Networking, Telecommunications, Electronics and Biotechnology. "When we set out to provide our clients with a truly end-to-end solution, we selected Ruby Networks for their real-time monitoring capability and rapid deployment philosophy. Most of the wireless solutions we evaluated relied on downloading and refreshing static web pages over wireless connections, and required extensive, time-consuming integration," said Jova Solutions, Inc. CEO and Chief Manufacturing Architect Martin Vasey. "Our clients need real-time information on their processes. With the Ruby Platform we can ensure our clients always have the information they need and the ability to act quickly no matter where they happen to be."
