Omicron

Architecture and Implementation

Omicron’s experience in helping companies adopt and get the most from the RtPM and PI System infrastructures allows us to cross-pollinate many topics across industries and situations. Omicron has designed a series of services to help companies advance the use of a PI System via new implementations, Integrations, Batch Support and Application Development on top of the RtPM platform for customers.

If your PI System has been in place for the past three or more years without a major checkup or upgrade – it is likely your users are missing out on great new functionality. The question is what is the best way to take advantage of the new RtPM infrastructure?

There are many issues facing a brand new PI System Installation. Often they revolve around balancing boot strap startup budgets and robust mutil-layered fault tolerant needs. If your budget is in the boot strap category – how do you implement for today while preparing for the success of the PI System and the needs of the future. If your budget can produce a more robust implementation – what is the best way to design your infrastructure?

Omicron’s PI Implementation Services are created to turn the unknowns of green field implementations and upgrades to knowledge and insightful forward movement. This allows you to take advantage of Omicron’s many installations, upgrades and retrofits that we have done over the past 15 years.

Omicron’s SmartSourcing approach plans each project as the combination of both our team and our client’s team to insure an “all-star” approach. This can range from simply goal setting by our client to a complex project with multiple teaming strategies.
