The Road to Integration: A Guide to Applying the ISA-95 Standards in Manufacturing, 2nd Edition
To run efficiently and cost effectively as well as produce quality products, manufacturing control systems on the plant floor must be able to communicate with the enterprise systems. Materials must be purchased and delivered on time, personnel must be scheduled, equipment must be available and operating properly, recipes must be precise, processes must be tracked, and product quality must be monitored so that changes can be made—all in real time. The problem is this: each system in the process speaks a different language.
The ISA-95 Enterprise Control System Integration series of standards is a guide for creating the interfaces needed to bridge the language gap. It provides consistent terminology for the phases and steps throughout the supply and manufacturing processes and models for implementing the interfaces. The Road to Integration, Second Edition, explains how to use the principles, terminology, and information methods in the standard to integrate enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, manufacturing execution systems (MES), and manufacturing operations management (MOM) systems. It provides examples and step-by-step plans for integration projects as well as case studies describing the implementation methods used by companies in different industries.
Specific topics include:
Applying ISA-95 to determine a specific company's MOM/MES strategy Applying the ISA-95 object models Developing MES applications and databases Compiling user requirements Describing functional requirements Selecting vendors Analyzing and comparing capacities at different production sites Gaining insight into and optimizing production processes
The authors discuss ISA-95 in the broader context of modern information exchange technologies and offer a complete picture for project managers, consultants, programmers, and information architects who want to integrate ERP and MOM/MES systems based on the international standard.
