Sigma Partners With Snowflake To Deliver Automotive Solutions For The AI Data Cloud

Sigma and Snowflake launch a seamless integration of OT data analytics to provide joint automotive customers with powerful data-driven insights at scale through Snowflake AI Data Cloud for Manufacturing

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sigma, the industry-leading analytics platform with unique cloud data platform writeback capabilities, today announced it has partnered with Snowflake to deliver automotive-specific solutions through the AI Data Cloud. Snowflake and Sigma are enabling automotive manufacturers, suppliers, and more to accelerate their digital transformation and unlock new revenue streams amidst unprecedented technological disruption. As the automotive industry looks to become more data-driven, Sigma is helping industry leaders transform business operations to eliminate data silos and manage connected vehicle data more effectively through advanced analytics, real-time connected vehicle insights, and secure data collaboration.

“The automotive industry is undergoing the most profound transformation in its history. To compete, OEMs must evolve from traditional mechanical manufacturers into data-driven software companies,” said Mike Palmer, CEO of Sigma. “Sigma and Snowflake are helping power that shift. By streaming real-time OT data into Snowflake and analyzing it in Sigma, manufacturers can instantly compute and drill into metrics—from company-wide KPIs to insights at the machine level—without the trade-offs of pre-aggregation or siloed systems. And with Sigma’s data apps capabilities, users can automate workflows, take actions, and reduce friction in data collaboration, all within an accessible, secure environment. It’s a unified, AI-powered interface built for speed, scale, and clarity.”

Sigma and Snowflake, the AI Data Cloud company, provide automotive manufacturers, suppliers, dealers, and fleet managers with the tools they need to enact data-driven decisions based on the massive influx of data generated across their ecosystems without sacrificing security or governance standards. Together, automotive manufacturers can more efficiently reduce errors and identify systemic issues in manufacturing, improving quality, customer satisfaction, and overall process improvement.

Through this collaboration, joint customers across the automotive manufacturing space have the technology capabilities to:

• Unlock Factory Floor Insights with AI: Ingest high-volume operational technology data from the factory floor at scale and analyze it using Snowflake Cortex with Sigma. Provide manufacturers and business leaders with an easy-to-understand natural language interface to ask real-time questions about Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and production metrics, accelerating decisions and driving operational improvements without the need for complex technical workflows.
• Integrate Data and Connect Silos Across the Automotive Lifecycle: Enable seamless data sharing across design systems, production environments, connected vehicles, service operations, and warranty systems to provide a holistic view of vehicle performance and customer experience. Accelerate development cycles, reduce operational costs, and deliver enhanced services by breaking down barriers between business units, systems, clouds, and partners.
• Leverage a Scalable and Performant Platform for Connected Vehicle Data: Support the massive data volumes generated by software-defined and autonomous vehicles with an architecture designed for high-resolution sensor and camera data. Decouple storage from compute to efficiently manage exponential growth while maintaining performance. Consolidate all vehicle streams into a single platform that scales without compromising accessibility or insights.
• Drive New Revenue Opportunities Through Data Monetization and Enhanced Customer Experiences: Create new revenue streams by securely sharing and monetizing automotive data products through Snowflake Marketplace. Gain a comprehensive view of customer interactions across all touchpoints to deliver personalized experiences and services. Enable secure collaboration with ecosystem partners while maintaining strict privacy controls and compliance.
• Optimize Supply Chain Resilience and Operational Efficiency: Gain real-time visibility across suppliers, inventory systems, and logistics partners to mitigate disruptions and reduce costs. Improve demand forecasting accuracy, minimize stockouts, and reduce excess inventory. Transform fragmented information systems into a unified platform that accelerates time to market and enables collaborative, data-driven decision-making.

“This launch aims to support our increasing number of automotive industry clients who are embracing key trends like autonomous driving technologies, electric vehicle innovation, and connected car ecosystems," said Tim Long, Snowflake Global Head of Manufacturing. "In this initiative, Sigma plays a vital role as a strategic partner. Our combined platform and solutions enable customers to unify their data, eliminate organizational barriers, and create new revenue streams. This collaboration helps businesses accelerate AI and ML innovation while improving operational efficiency, all within a secure and well-governed framework."
