Global battery technology company Envision has tapped next-generation digital services provider Infosys to help develop a cloud-based platform that would automate and streamline processes at Envision AESC’s electric vehicle battery manufacturing plants. 

In a press release, Infosys said the cloud-based platform is initially aimed at digitising key processes that require a high level of human intervention. 

In the long term, the platform will seek to enhance productivity and end-to-end visibility and simplify quality monitoring through data-driven reporting and analytics tools. 

Furthermore, aside from delivering a rich user experience, the modular and extensible cloud-based platform will also bring about the scalable, resilient, and predictable performance of business applications across geographies. 

The new platform will also harness the Amazon Web Services Cloud components of Infosys Cobalt, a set of services, solutions, and platforms for enterprises that would accelerate users’ cloud journey. 

“At Envision AESC, we believe that advancements in battery technology will propel the EV revolution to newer heights. The manufacturing processes of our breakthrough batteries need a robust digital foundation to accelerate the speed and scale of innovation,” said Brian Sullivan, executive vice president of global manufacturing and supply chain at Envision AESC.

“We are confident that Infosys, with their trusted cloud technologies and deep expertise in the automotive industry, will help us continue on our journey towards achieving our transformation goals,” Sullivan said. 

“As e-Mobility continues to transform the automotive landscape, building a strong digital core in cloud is a business imperative. We are delighted that in collaboration with Infosys, Envision AESC will be taking a cloud-first approach to digitising operations in its EV battery manufacturing plant,” Jasmeet Singh, executive vice president and global head of manufacturing at Infosys

“We believe that our co-innovation efforts will catalyze the development of next-generation EV batteries from a sustainability and circularity standpoint,” Singh added.
