Carter will be responsible for executing the company’s vision to accelerate growth and development of its FactoryTalk Integrated Production and Performance Suite, and to extend the company’s leadership position in plant-wide information solutions. 

“Our recent software company acquisitions, including Pavilion Technologies, not only brought us great products, they are providing a rich bench of great talent.

Carter joined Rockwell Automation in November 2007 through the company’s acquisition of Pavilion Technologies, where he served as president and CEO, and sat on the company’s board of directors. He brings more than 23 years of experience to this role, having worked for corporations such as Datastream, Honeywell and Measurex in positions of increasing responsibility and leadership over the course of his career. 

Through multiple acquisitions and the expansion of its FactoryTalk suite, Rockwell Automation has taken a leadership position in the plant-wide information solutions market. Carter will continue to execute the company's vision of providing manufacturers with market-leading, plant-wide information solutions, which help customers improve responsiveness, increase productivity, reduce costs, and assure regulatory compliance.
