Solutions architect appointed

Industrial IT provider, SolutionsPT, has appointed Kraig Appleton as a Solutions Architect, as it continues to expand the company’s growing team of specialists.

In this newly created role, Kraig will provide technology leadership across a multidisciplinary technical team, enabling SolutionsPT to create, design and implement full technological infrastructures for automation environments across its hardware, software and managed service offerings.

Kraig’s appointment is the latest in a series of new roles created within SolutionsPT to capitalise upon the growing opportunities presented by the operational intelligence and smart infrastructure markets.

Kraig joins SolutionsPT from Infinis, one of the UK's leading generators of renewable power, where he was responsible for designing all of the company’s renewable energy systems.  Prior to this Kraig worked in the oil and gas industry.

Kraig commented: “In my previous role I was responsible for overseeing one of the largest installations of the Wonderware System Platform in Europe. My understanding of Wonderware from the customer’s perspective gives me a real insight into the challenges our clients face. I intend to use this to develop effective software solutions for them.

“My initial focus will be on developing our operational intelligence and smart infrastructure offering, helping our customers to harness the data they produce and turn that into a competitive advantage, ultimately improving profitability.”  


Phil Gillard, SolutionsPT, General Manager, added: “Kraig will be the voice of the customer internally, helping shape our products and how they are delivered and delivering innovative infrastructure solutions matched to their objectives to support them in driving their own revenues.”
