    PPG Receives 2 IT Innovation Awards from IDG’s CIO Magazine

    New software program earns FutureEdge 50 honor; CIO 100 Award is company’s fifth.

    Coatings World staff06.11.20

    PPG announced that it has received the FutureEdge 50 and CIO 100 awards from IDG’s CIO magazine.

     

    PPG earned the FutureEdge 50 award for its PPG ASSET INTEGRITY MANAGEMENT (AIM) system, which was introduced in the U.S. and Canada last year. 

     

    Created for PPG’s protective and marine coatings (PMC) business, the software-based program uses PPG-developed proprietary algorithms to help facility owners, managers and engineers schedule, budget and optimize corrosion protection of metal assets.

     

    “The FutureEdge 50 award highlights PPG’s commitment to using information technology (IT) to help customers maximize their coatings investments,” said Scott Doering, PPG director of sales, PMC, U.S. “While some companies offer corrosion audit programs that help customers actively manage assets, the PPG AIM system is the first that we know of to feature dynamic budgeting and scheduling capabilities.”

     

    These capabilities enable maintenance engineers to more accurately forecast which assets will require a new coating or surface repair and when that work must be done. The software also estimates inflation-adjusted costs for when those repairs are expected to take place.

     

    The 2020 CIO Award, which was also presented in recognition of the PPG AIM system, represents the fifth time PPG has received this honor.

     

    “The achievement showcases PPG’s legacy of IT innovation,” said Jeff Lipniskis, PPG global director, information technology. “We are proud to be recognized for this prestigious honor, but even more so for our team’s ability to continuously innovate and develop advanced digital solutions that help our customers meet the challenges of doing business in their industries.”

     

    PPG’s PMC products protect customer assets in some of the world’s most demanding conditions and environments, such as projects in energy, infrastructure and marine markets. PPG’s PMC product lines include PPG PSX, PPG AMERLOCK, PPG PITT-CHAR and PPG HI-TEMP series.
