Abstract :
Historically, manufacturers have had to choose between using an integrated MES system (often large, costly, monolithic, and insufficiently configurable), or using multiple point solutions (resulting in multiple databases, different user interfaces, different models, and integration nightmares). Today, manufacturers can have both. They can now purchase point solutions that are easily and seamlessly integratable
