Message from the Leaders
Industrial companies, such as those in automobile, aerospace,
medical device, pharmaceutical, and defense manufacturing sectors,
are key customers of Persistent. Persistent’s products and services
drive regulatory compliance as well as growth strategies for these
companies. These customers employ advanced product development
platforms for their software and hardware systems and need the ability
to interconnect those systems. They build ‘digital twins’ to the physical
devices and systems to share and analyze the data, detect problems,
and develop new plans and roadmaps. We help them with automation
and on-demand data sharing. Our services make these companies
audit-ready and streamline the design, testing, and manufacturing of
products within the Company and across its supply chain partners.
