Bosch Aims to Break €1 Billion Barrier in Factory Software Revenue

Bosch is continuing its software offensive with the company’s industrial technology business sector pursuing ambitious goals. By the beginning of the next decade, it wants its sales revenue from software and software-related services to have reached around 1 billion euros.

“Bosch is one of the world’s biggest manufacturing companies. We know factories like the back of our hand. This know-how flows into our software development. Our solutions are made by users for users since we also use our software in our own plants,” said Tanja Rueckert, a member of the board of management of Bosch whose responsibilities include the Industrial Technology business sector.

This business sector comprises Rexroth, Manufacturing Solutions, and Connected Industry. Software solutions for the operations management level, such as Bosch Connected Industry’s NEXEED, and for the control level, such as Rexroth’s ctrlX AUTOMATION, dovetail seamlessly. Manufacturing Solutions also offers AI-based process optimization for existing manufacturing landscapes.
