In a recent Gartner Report entitled “Cool Vendors in Internet of Things Analytics, 2016” they conclude:

​

• Look for high-value project and proof-of-concept opportunities to collaborate with engineers in operational technology (OT) organizations.  

• Consider using your existing OT and IT vendors to meet IoT requirements, based on device and sensor connectivity, support of data types, the range and types of advanced analytics, and specific industry and domain expertise.

Line Down Triage Hub is exactly that; a super high-value opportunity being built for Ford by Ford’s key OT and IT vendors.

It is being built as a scalable IoT Platform that will not only work in Manufacturing but is flexible enough to transcend all Ford functions.
