MachineMetrics has appointed Jon Cowan as its chief revenue officer (CRO). As CRO, Cowan is responsible for driving MachineMetrics’ growth to meet customer demand for MachineMetrics’ solutions for manufacturers.
Cowan joins MachineMetrics from Plex Systems, where he served as vice president of sales and brings a track record of successful enterprise software sales management. His experience leading and scaling sales organizations within the enterprise software and Software as a Service (SaaS) space, along with his domain expertise in manufacturing and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technology, makes Cowan a natural fit for MachineMetrics as the organization works to expand its market reach.
Bill Bither, CEO and co-founder of MachineMetrics, says, “Jon joins the company during a chapter of rapid growth. His expertise in bringing enterprise-level SaaS solutions to global manufacturers comes at a perfect time for MachineMetrics to help us meet our growing demand.”
"MachineMetrics is on the forefront of a shift by manufacturers aiming to leverage IIoT technologies to provide these insights,” says Cowan. “I’ve not only been impressed with the platform and capabilities but the people and overall culture as well."
The past year reportedly propelled significant customer expansion and acquisition for MachineMetrics, as manufacturing companies accelerated digital transformation plans in the wake of the pandemic. According to the company, its platform is used by clients that range from small contract manufacturers to the world’s largest OEMs. MachineMetrics is designed to enable users to turn remote visibility into real-time production, identify production bottlenecks, predict machine failures, improve quality and build workflows that automate the operation of machines.
