The award was given for the development of new, harmonized automation architecture for lifting equipment in the era of the Industrial Internet. The rewarded Konecranes team consisted of Tuomo Härkönen, Jari Tiittanen, Jari Pehkonen and Ville Saarela. The rewarded automation architecture can be applied in a wide range of lifting equipment and for different customer needs.

Architecture is modular, harmonized, and besides new automation features it enables a variety of remote services. The functionalities of the innovation are based on 'Best Available Technology', which offers a wide selection of reliable features. The award-winning innovation is a great example of systematic, modern use of automation.
