With this deal, Accenture can now start building automated production lines that leverage the cloud, data, and artificial intelligence (AI). This innovation can, in turn, help factories and plants shift into a smarter, more productive, sustainable, and safe environment.
Accenture added that Eclipse’s team of 800 professionals will join their digital engineering and manufacturing service called Industry X.
