Siemens Digital Industries Software has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) for the sixth consecutive time.
The report states that, “Gartner defines manufacturing execution systems (MES) as a specialist class of production-oriented software that manages, monitors and synchronizes the execution of real-time physical processes involved in transforming raw materials into intermediate and/or finished goods. These systems coordinate this execution of work orders with production scheduling and enterprise-level systems like ERP [enterprise resource planning] and product life cycle management (PLM). MES applications also provide feedback on process performance, and support component and material-level traceability, genealogy and integration with process history, where required.”
Opcenter Execution MES software from the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio of software and services helps customers to optimize manufacturing operations, accurately reflecting design, engineering and process data in the production of actual finished products. The software help customers to deliver a comprehensive digital twin to the factory floor, accelerating production by digitally linking enterprise systems with automated manufacturing equipment. Opcenter cuts through the complexities of today’s products and production processes to help ensure products are built as planned, on time and cost efficiently, while helping to ensure that floor personnel, raw materials, supplied components and works in progress are in the right place at the right time to accelerate production processes.
