The need to adopt the necessary agility to innovate and compete in today’s global market is high on the agenda of many to most companies. This cost and efficiency requirement has triggered manufacturers to establish demand driven manufacturing business models and left them with the additional challenge to bring the plant infrastructure and business systems closer together on the one hand, and align manufacturing operations with the entire supply chain on the other hand. Siemens has long understood that the plant is at the very intersection of business, manufacturing and supply chain operations.

The SIMATIC IT offering, including SIMATIC IT Production Suite, SIMATIC IT R&D Suite, and soon also SIMATIC IT Intelligence Suite, is the exact window for the establishment of cross-plant and cross-divisional coordination, and can take care of plant specific requirements as well thanks to its hierarchical (modular and scalable) approach.

In order to learn more about value creation and integration of processes through technological enablers, in order to share best practices and learn how to reach the full potential of your IT infrastructure we provide you with the latest presentations on MES technologies from Siemens supported by Microsoft.
