Hitachi Energy recognized as EAM leader by ARC Advisory Group

Read the ARC MarketMap for Enterprise Asset Management 2026 excerpt: [https://www.hitachienergy.company/G3j](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4814162-1&h=1110127176&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hitachienergy.company%2FG3j&a=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hitachienergy.company%2FG3j)

According to the study, "Hitachi Energy has established a strong position through
its industry expertise, extensive installed base and continued investment in expanding
and enhancing its portfolio." ARC adds, "The company has particularly strong domain
alignment with power utilities and grid infrastructure, supported by deep expertise
in transformers, substations, and high-voltage asset environments. The supplier’s
strength lies in combining operational technology depth with digital asset intelligence
to support resilience, uptime, and long-term infrastructure modernization."

**EAM expertise built for mission-critical operations**
For power utilities, transportation
operators, and other asset-intensive organizations, EAM provides the operational
foundation for managing physical assets throughout their lifecycle, connecting asset
planning, operations, maintenance, work execution, and lifecycle decisions from 
commissioning through retirement. By providing a consistent view of assets, work,
resources, and costs, EAM helps organizations improve asset reliability, increase
operational and workforce efficiency, and optimize lifecycle costs while reducing
the risk of disruptions to essential services.

"For more than 40 years, we have developed EAM solutions around the realities of
maintaining the assets and infrastructure society depends on," said Andy Howell,
Global Head of Enterprise Software Solutions Product Group, Hitachi Energy. "That
combination of operational technology expertise, industry knowledge, and proven 
delivery continues to distinguish Hitachi Energy. ARC’s recognition reflects both
the value our customers achieve today and our strategy to advance EAM through cloud,
data, AI, and strategic collaboration."

for the specialized requirements of nuclear power operators.

**Advancing EAM through strategic collaboration with Microsoft**
Building on this
established EAM foundation, Hitachi Energy is advancing the next generation of asset
management through its strategic alliance with Microsoft, which ARC identifies as
a significant differentiator. As announced in [January 2026](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4814162-1&h=1914578508&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hitachienergy.com%2Fnews-and-events%2Fpress-releases%2F2026%2F01%2Fhitachi-reinvents-ellipse-enterprise-asset-management-solution-with-microsofts-ai-enabled-technology-to-improve-critical-infrastructure-resilience%3Futm_source%3Dmeltwater%26utm_medium%3Dreferral%26utm_campaign%3Dbu%3Aga_ess_awm%7Ecc%3Aglobal%7Ecn%3Aarc_eam%7Eco%3Aawareness%7Eff%3A&a=January+2026),
the companies are bringing together Hitachi Energy’s Ellipse EAM and asset-intensive
industry expertise with Microsoft’s cloud, data, productivity, and AI technologies.
The unified solution will establish a common data foundation and apply agentic AI
across asset management and business workflows, enabling users to act on better 
insights, streamline work, and strengthen the safety, reliability, and affordability
of essential infrastructure.

"We congratulate Hitachi Energy on this well-deserved recognition as a leader in
enterprise asset management," said Dayan Rodriguez, Corporate Vice President, Manufacturing
and Mobility, Microsoft. "EAM is fundamental to how asset-intensive organizations
sustain critical operations and adapt to growing demands. Through our collaboration
with Hitachi Energy, we are bringing together complementary capabilities to support
a more connected approach to asset and operational management—one that enables users
to put data to work, make timely decisions, and continuously improve performance."
