History

On May 5, 2010, the ABB Group announced it had acquired Atlanta, Georgia-based Ventyx, Inc. for more than $1 billion.[1][2]

On May 9, 2011, the ABB Group announced it had acquired Mincom Pty. Ltd. and would be integrating it with its subsidiary Ventyx, Inc.[3][4] On February 6, 2012, ABB announced it had "completed the organizational integration of Mincom."[5]

On January 30, 2015, ABB announced Ventyx would become ABB Enterprise Software[6], essentially becoming fully absorbed into ABB along with CCLAS.[7]

Technology and products

CCLAS and Knowledge Manager

CCLAS is a laboratory information management system (LIMS) "for mining and metal processing, provides a wide range of tools to help laboratories optimize their processes and ensure quality results."[8]

Knowledge Manager is a LIMS that "drastically simplifies production management by enabling performance monitoring, downtime management and maintenance support, as well as providing statistical production analysis tools."[9]

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
