Manufacturing Execution Systems Deliver Real Value and Competitiveness

Customer References verified by TechValidate.

by Michael Schwarz, MES/EMI/Workflow Product Manager, Invensys Schneider Electric

Every manufacturer approaching the transformation from a paper based, fragmented or manual operations management system to a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) raises that question – what will be the ROI (Return on Investment) in my case?  Often this question cannot be exactly answered directly – only very experienced professionals will be able to compare a prospect's situation to a similar case, and relate to the results achieved in these case(s) without detailed analyses and investigations which may require similar efforts close to a small MES implementation itself!

We wanted to know better ourselves and asked our existing Wonderware MES Software customers what operational improvements and ROI they achieved, to share with those who need decision support to justify the investment. We partnered with a research service, TechValidate, to collect and validate such information for publication. The chart above is an overview of Improvements through Wonderware MES Software use.

Mark Davidson of LNS Research just posted a very fair and measured analysis of Invensys' Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) software capabilities, capping his discussion with an overview of the Schneider Electric acquisition of Invensys.

Over the past 10 years, Invensys has steadily increased their focus and investment on the needs of the manufacturing and infrastructure industries, providing full-scope solutions for visibility, reporting and analysis, and process control.  The addition of plant floor control systems from Schneider Electric will offer more choices for customers to fill in the gaps in their solution set, add capabilities and set the path for future improvements.
