Thyssenkrupp & Cyient partner to enhance predictive solutions for elevators

“For us, MAX is an integral part of our plans to transform the elevator industry and enhance urban mobility in cities across the world. Building on our collaborations for MAX with Microsoft and Vodafone, we are glad to have found another strong partner for this solution in Cyient. We are confident that their expertise in analytics will help to further develop MAX’s competencies, supporting our more than 24,000 technicians in the field and taking elevator service into the digital era,” said Andreas Schierenbeck, CEO of Thyssenkrupp Elevator.

The solution, developed with Microsoft and using its Azure cloud platform and Azure IoT Suite, will now also incorporate Cyient’s expertise in creating predictive analytics solutions.  Cyient will develop algorithms and integrated solutions to leverage data from Thyssenkrupp’s ‘things’ - its elevators, and enhance Thyssenkrupp’s ability to diagnose potential problems and deliver superior service.

Krishna Bodanapu, managing director and CEO, Cyient, added, “Our collaboration will enhance Thyssenkrupp's competitive advantage in the elevator industry with the help of advanced analytics and big data solutions.”
