Plex Systems Chosen by ZEVx to Support Growth Plan to Rapidly Scale

Plex Systems, a Rockwell Automation company and a leader in cloud-delivered
smart manufacturing solutions, announced ZEVx, Inc. has selected Plex
Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to drive production of its
electrification solutions. ZEVx builds and designs battery electric power
systems and data intelligence for e-mobility applications. The selection of
Plex comes on the heels of a strategic partnership between ZEVx and Rockwell
Automation announced in April for the utilization of Vuforia Expert Capture,
a FactoryTalk Innovation Suite solution powered by PTC that captures and
shares knowledge digitally for rapid employee training and onboarding.

By using Plex, a cloud-native and fully digital system, ZEVx aims to
automate its manual processes and improve data visibility, accuracy, and
reporting to support its aggressive growth plan. With a need for strong
quality and traceability capabilities, ZEVx chose Plex MES to help ensure a
high level of compliance to meet certifications such as IATF and ISO.

“The addition of Plex MES as a part of our Rockwell Automation collaboration
will allow us to accelerate battery electric power systems strategy,”
commented Charles Maury, founder and chief data officer, ZEVx. “Plex’s
heritage in smart manufacturing technologies for the automotive industry,
including functionality related to supplier and inventory management, were
central to our selection. The Plex technology is integral to ZEVx’s
scalability and agility on our path to becoming the leader in battery
electric power systems and data intelligence for e-mobility applications.”

“We are excited about the expanded collaboration with ZEVx for MES and to
see that our comprehensive offering of production automation and management
solutions is delivering increased value to customers,” commented Luca De
Ferrari, vice president, Information Solutions, Americas at Rockwell
Automation. “The automation of traceability and quality processes enabled by
Plex MES will allow ZEVx to eliminate paper-based, time-consuming manual
processes while unlocking real-time decision making. With our support, ZEVx
is establishing a smart battery electric power systems foundation which will
help them achieve a competitive advantage.”
