|---|---|
| Capability | Operations engineers work from the same Sigrity record for operations visibility |
| Capability | Operations visibility can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for operations visibility |
Story
Norfolk Southern grew operations visibility faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, industrials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Operations engineers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Sigrity put plant and field operations on Cadence. Cadence Design Systems supplies computational software for integrated circuit, system, and PCB design used by electronics companies. Norfolk Southern keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so operations engineers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier plant and field operations. Operations visibility is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join operations engineers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
