Enterprise PI?
Is that some kind of new Product?
Same stuff, just lots of it
~36% of our Total Sales in
1998 were from PO’s that
included Multi-Plant PI sales
What’s good for one plant is
good for them all

Partners and OEM’s
Partners bring us many opportunities
There will be a whole room full of partners Tuesday
OEM’s - In 1999 we will ship more systems than
we have in history of OSI
Little direct revenue from OEM’s
Customer benefits from easy connections to PI
OSI benefits by increased presence in the market
1999 PI System Users’ Conference
“The PI System is the
Plant Information for the Masses”
As opposed to “Totally Responsive Application
Software and Historians - Custom Applied to
your Needs”
“Software for the masses” is the only software
that has any future
Volume is key to:
supportability
de-bugging
feedback
profit
1999 PI System Users’ Conference
What is the alternative to TRASH-CAN?
Software that goes through continuous
improvement
Software on which you can develop applications
on yourself
Software that interacts easily with Quality
software produced by other vendors
Software that provides a solid infrastructure so
that Integrators can work at the SOLUTION level
Software that makes money for you now and for
many years to come
1999 PI System Users’ Conference
Developing Applications Yourself
Little-ware
Small High Value Applications
You can do it yourself
Close to end user’s needs
1999 PI System Users’ Conference
You too can be a geek
Our goal is to turn every one of you
into programmers
Whether you know it or not.
Code Generators
Excel Macros
Wizards
Script Libraries
