Aspen Technology Expands Global Channel Partner Network

Aspen Technology, Inc. announced the continued expansion of the AspenTech Partner Network Program with the addition of Applied Control Engineering, IMA Industrial, Rovisys, and Zenith Technologies. The new partners provide AspenTech with additional go-to-market resources to expand its leadership position in process industry markets.

Increasingly, more diverse types of process industry companies are seeking to capitalize on the benefits of integrated process optimization solutions. These new partners will strengthen AspenTech's global presence in North America, South America and Europe by providing access to a broad customer base in bio-fuels, consumer packaged goods, food and beverage, metals and mining, utilities, and pulp and paper industries.

Many of the industries AspenTech serves face significant challenges such as managing energy costs, escalating manufacturing costs, increased product complexity, and exacting regulatory demands. These hurdles are driving operational imperatives to reduce cost of goods, ensure reliable customer supply, and maintain strict product quality standards. Integrated process optimization solutions such as aspenONE address these challenges, significantly improving overall manufacturing performance and providing enterprise-wise visibility and control over production.

Through AspenTech's commitment to collaboration with partners that possess industry expertise and integration capabilities, aspenONE deployments are implemented more rapidly and with greater sustainability to help maximize value while supporting rigorous industry standards.

"We're excited to team up with AspenTech to enhance Zenith's process industry services and development capabilities by providing our customers with a tightly integrated solution," said Brenden O'Regan, CEO, Zenith Technologies. "AspenTech's Partner Network Program supports Zenith and its customers by providing unrivaled technical solutions and expertise, bolstered by valuable knowledge transfer to help us meet our business development goals."

"As more companies in process manufacturing industries realize the ROI that AspenTech solutions can deliver, they are partnering with industry-specific experts who can help them maximize the value of their deployments, " said Blair Wheeler, SVP of Marketing, AspenTech. "The AspenTech Partner Network Program is creating success both for new aspenONE solutions customers and AspenTech partners, while expanding the breadth of our go-to-market resources."
