Optiv + Global Automation Vendor = Unbiased Tool Bakeoff Industry Served: Automation Vendor Our Starting Point Select the best OT sensor for 170 global locations Client’s multiple partnerships and investments in OT firms complicated the selection process Client had begun product research but needed an unbiased expert Accelerating Forward Optiv narrowed down list of vendors from 15 to five Select group of options installed in Optiv laboratory Client and Optiv developed a qualitative grading system to conduct an unbiased evaluation Client Outcomes Client selected the best tool for their environment, free of political influence Partner and investment relationships maintained by deflecting decision to a third-party evaluation All 170 locations to be supported though Optiv’s deployment plan The Situation – Politics in the Way of the Best OT Sensor Selection An automation vendor with 170 global manufacturing sites needed to choose an operational technology (OT) sensor to produce control systems. But because they embed OT sensors in many of their products, they have multiple conflicting partnerships and investments in the firms that produce them. To pick the best tool to secure their manufacturing environment, without influence from their business partners, they reached out to Optiv to act as an impartial juror in the selection process.

So we conducted a survey of their team members across 28 departments, which helped us to narrow down the field of potential bidders from 15 to five. We then installed each technology into the Optiv testing laboratory to conduct an unbiased evaluation. Working together with the client team, our OT experts developed a qualitative grading system and tool evaluation process. By scoring each potential solution independently of external business partnerships, our client ultimately selected the best tool for their environment.
