Entries were judged by industry experts, trade magazine editors, industry analysts and the Invensys Operations Management executive team.

The 2010 Invensys Operations Management OPEN winner for Asset Excellence is 9ren Group of Madrid, Spain. 9ren is a new energies group focused on solar energy. The company’s EOSystem, a platform for integrating remote renewable energy facilities in a unified, consistent and reliable control room, is built on Invensys’ ArchestrA System Platform with Historian and Wonderware InTouch HMI + ActiveFactory software.

The Control Excellence award went to Taiwan Power Company. The company upgraded its process control systems at several fossil fuel, hydroelectric and nuclear power generating plants using a Foxboro I/A Series distributed control system and mesh control network, Triconex critical safety systems and turbomachinery controls and SimSci-Esscor dynamic simulation solutions.

The Productivity Excellence award was given to Xcellerex of Marlborough, Mass. Using several Invensys solutions, including Wonderware System Platform, InBatch, InTouch HMI, Historian Software and Historian Client products, the Xcellerex technology platform allows manufacturing capacity to be deployed rapidly, flexibly and at greatly reduced cost compared with conventional technology.
