Rockwell Automation (RA) is a leading industrial automation company with the mission to be the most valued global provider of power, control and information solutions. RA's Power & Energy Management Solutions (PEMS) group was set up to help customers manage and optimize energy consumption, in the face of the rising cost of energy. The PEMS group built a new application, RSEnergyMetrix, using C#, Microsoft SQL Server 2000, the .NET Framework, and Chart FX for .NET. RSEnergyMetrix is a server application with both Web and Microsoft Windows interfaces. RA speeded its time to market by 6 months and saved over $100,000 in development costs by building RSEnergyMetrix with the .NET Framework and Chart FX.
