About the company

ABB is a electrification and industrial automation organization. Its current public materials identify Electrification, Motion, Automation as useful ways to understand its activities. ABB now reports three continuing business areas. Robotics has been classified as discontinued operations pending its sale to SoftBank, while Machine Automation joined Automation; neither should appear as a fourth continuing business area.

This QueryChart tree puts those disclosed areas next to a single, separately marked leadership branch for Morten Wierod. The business branches describe a public portfolio, not a confidential employee hierarchy. A line between a category and an offering means the offering belongs in that published category; it does not say that a particular executive personally manages every team shown.

Published businesses and operating areas

Electrification is one of the visible areas in ABB's published structure. Electrical distribution and related technologies support buildings, infrastructure and industry. The editable chart places Distribution products and Electrification services beneath this branch so a reader can find concrete activities instead of a generic departmental box. This is a simplified grouping of disclosed work, and the sources below should be used for the exact legal entities, segment definitions and current management roles.

Motion is one of the visible areas in ABB's published structure. The business area focuses on motors, drives and motion-related services. The editable chart places Motors and Drives and services beneath this branch so a reader can find concrete activities instead of a generic departmental box. This is a simplified grouping of disclosed work, and the sources below should be used for the exact legal entities, segment definitions and current management roles.

Automation is one of the visible areas in ABB's published structure. Process and machine automation capabilities serve industrial operators. The editable chart places Process automation and Machine automation beneath this branch so a reader can find concrete activities instead of a generic departmental box. This is a simplified grouping of disclosed work, and the sources below should be used for the exact legal entities, segment definitions and current management roles.

How this structure supports the business

The Electrification and Motion branches answer different questions about ABB. Electrical distribution and related technologies support buildings, infrastructure and industry. The business area focuses on motors, drives and motion-related services. Showing them side by side is more informative than drawing an unsupported chain of managers, particularly when the public materials report a portfolio or service line rather than a complete internal org chart.

ABB now reports three continuing business areas. Robotics has been classified as discontinued operations pending its sale to SoftBank, while Machine Automation joined Automation; neither should appear as a fourth continuing business area. Process and machine automation capabilities serve industrial operators. The diagram makes that distinguishing feature visible while keeping the named leadership layer separate. It is useful as a starting point for an editable company chart; users can replace the public groupings with their own teams, roles and verified reporting relationships.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Electrification branch uses a publicly described company-specific grouping.

A portfolio branch does not prove an individual reporting line.

The chart distinguishes Motion from Automation.

A single-parent tree cannot show every cross-business collaboration or legal-entity link.
