Dr. Peter Martin
Bedrock Automation announces that Dr. Peter Martin has joined its advisory board. Martin, reportedly well-known throughout the industrial automation world for his pioneering applications of control theory to business profitability, will advise Bedrock in its advancement of Open Secure Automation.
“Peter essentially invented the concept of measuring business value of automation and has proven it in practice. Peter and I share in the certainty that the full potential of industrial automation systems has yet to be realized,” says Bedrock Founder, CEO and CTO Albert Rooyakkers.
Martin served as vice president of innovation and marketing for Schneider Electric Process Automation until his retirement in 2019. The International Society for Automation (ISA) named him an industry fellow, recognizing his innovations in real-time, sensor-based dynamic performance measures, which they say, “has improved process tuning and profitability control for industrial operations across the globe," according to Bedrock.
ISA also named him one of InTech magazine's 50 most influential innovators of all time in instrumentation and controls and gave him a Life Achievement Award for his work in “integrating financial and production measures that improve the profitability and performance of industrial processes.” Control magazine named him to its Process Automation Hall of Fame and Fortune magazine has named him a Hero of U.S. Manufacturing. He was also named to the Measurement, Control and Automation (MCAA) Hall of Fame.
