Larry O’Brien, Vice President of Research, ARC Advisory Group and principal author of this study says, “ARC has been following the DCS market closely for 30 years and we believe the technology and the market are both on the verge of significant disruptions. This is due to a combination of the intense cost pressures that owner-operators now face in major end user industries and the rapid convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT).”
