Infosys Creates a Digital Product Configurator for Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning

Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning, a joint venture between Hitachi products and Johnson Controls, is in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) business. The company has a group that produces scroll compressors that power air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Scroll compressors work in a circular motion instead of an up-and-down piston action and have a reputation for reliability and efficiency. Scroll compressors are deployed in several different ways to meet the needs for efficiency, comfort, and affordability - and therein lies the challenge. Finding a suitable scroll compressor for a specific application requires understanding variables such as refrigerant, rating conditions, and cooling capacity.

Cloud became a crucial part of Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning’s strategy. Infosys created digital catalogs to help customers search for products based on features and attributes. Infosys developed a product configuration solution that accelerates the sales cycle by enabling sales teams to accurately configure products and estimate product costs.
