NORTH AMERICA KEMET Electronics Corporation ’ s headquarters in Simpsonville technology transformation is external partners and technology vendors .
To this end , Hall feels that selecting the right partner ( s ) is actually more a case of cultural fit as much as it is a simple technological capabilities analysis .
KEMET relies on a number of business partners . Sirius , a leading integrator of technology-based business solutions , Halls notes , has been instrumental in assisting with the “ reinvention of our infrastructure . “ IBM is a critical partner in assisting with our implementation of SharePoint and other development projects .
To achieve the necessary hybridcloud model necessary for future
digitization projects , KEMET is also partnering with Nutanix to better manage and provide the onsite compute for future projects like IoT .
These are but three examples of how KEMET is working collaboratively with vendors to serve as coaches providing core intelligence and best practices to the company .
We are partnering with people who are good at what we are not , and by doing so , bringing information and knowledge into KEMET that will serve us well for years to come .”
No transformation defined by technology can ever truly end , with technology and innovation continuously evolving and redefining industry
