1. OPC FOUNDATION 2012 OPC Foundation Liaison with TR-50

2. OPC Foundation Liaison with TR-50 OPC Unified Architecture for the Internet Of Things_0.00.01 We've recently executed a cooperation agreement with TIA. We have reviewed and are very interested in your recent publication TIA-4940-005, and quickly recognize the value that this potentially brings to the industrial automation space. OPC Foundation and the OPC Foundation members are very interested in contributing to the development of standards with respect to TR – 50. I understand initial liaison opportunity with the OPC Foundation would not provide voting rights, but ultimately by participating and attending consecutive meetings, we would be able to elevate our status to being a core member with full voting rights. 2

3. OPC Foundation : Who we are! The OPC Foundation, dedicated to interoperability in automation and enterprise computing, is an independent, non-profit organization that comprises leading manufacturers and solution providers in factory and process automation as well as enterprise solutions. The OPC Foundation's charter is to develop worldwide industry standards for data transfer offering multivendor interoperability and seamless connectivity of devices, systems, networks and enterprise computing solutions. Development of specifications is undertaken by volunteers from over 450 members worldwide. 3

4. Members of OPC Members include: technology providers, which develop OPC-compliant products; end-user companies, which are consumers of OPC technology in the form of OPC-compliant products; and non-voting members, which are universities, government, research institutions, and non-profit organizations. 4

5. Markets The key markets for OPC technology include: –Industrial Automation –Building Automation –Embedded Devices –Energy Management (Smart Grid) –Manufacturing Enterprise Management –Cloud-based Computing –M2M –And many more …. 5
