VINCI Energies, a leader in the field of energy efficiency, connections, and performance, announced this Thursday it has teamed up with TeamViewer, a leading global provider of remote connectivity and workplace digitalization, for the acceleration of energy transition and digital transformation.
The partnership between the companies intends to drive digital transformation of industrial environments; it will mainly focus on the joint creation of innovative solutions using Internet of Things (IoT) and Augmented Reality (AR) technology.
Furthermore, according to the statement, the agreement includes that VINCI Energies will act as a system integrator for combined TeamViewer and VINCI Energies customers. Such a platform will support them with implementation and consulting services around IoT and AR projects.
On the other hand, this is not the first partnership between the parties. TeamViewer and VINCI Energies started the joint technical development of new products and services. The first of which is a digital twin for the industrial shop floor equipment.
This solution will bring to the customer reduced production time, as well as enhanced productivity and reliability. Indeed, the virtual representations of the machines or robots can then be enriched individually with elements such as live sensor data that the customer can monitor and manage remotely.
