Industry alliance announced
IBM in the US has announced an industry alliance with key leaders in metering, monitoring, automation, data communications, software and analytics to provide smart solutions for energy, water, waste and greenhouse gas management.
Charter members of the Green Sigma Coalition are Johnson Controls, Honeywell Building Solutions, ABB, Eaton, ESS, Cisco, Siemens Building Technologies Division, Schneider Electric and SAP. The coalition members will work with IBM to integrate their products and services with IBM's Green Sigma solution.
The IBM solution applies Lean Six Sigma principles and practices to energy, water, waste and GHG emissions throughout a company's operations — transportation systems, data centres and IT systems, manufacturing and distribution centres, office facilities, retail space, research and development sites.
It combines real-time metering and monitoring with advanced analytics and dashboards that allow clients to make better decisions about energy and water usage, waste and GHG emissions to improve efficiency, lower costs and reduce environmental impact.
