Base Definitions
Vertical Integration
•
Strong Trend to vertical Integration
– Level 1 / 2 is growing up (industrial computers became a
normal part of automation technology and are normally
maintained by plant engineering staff)
– ERP (Level 4) takes logistic functions as rough and detailed
Planning, production preparation, production and quality
control, processes get standardized in an increasing amount.
– On the other hand, demands for integration of these
processes get more complex in an increasing amount

Goals
– Standardization of processes
– Centralized Data Management (Documentation, Data
Protection and Backup)
– No duplication of data acquisition and processing
– Near real-time data in material management, controlling,
sales & distribution…
– ERP-data as basis for technology-specific solutions
(optimization, process models…)

Platform versus MES-Products
As you come close to the shop floor, production specific
technology strikes through
• Standard-MES
– Should fit very well to the specific technology (industry
solution), otherwise only a small part of functionality is used,
the rest has to be done via adaption of standard functions)
•
Platform
– Includes standard components for functionality, which is used
in all projects (e.g. interfaces, logic components). These
components are configured to project specific solutions.
– Ideally a platform includes „templates“, which can be flexibly
used as starting point for a technology-specific solution
Requirements to MES-Platform
•
Strong Integration into ERP
– Base Data in ERP
– Setup of Producation out of ERP (no duplicated Acquisiton
and Maintennache of Base and Order Data)
– Real-time Confirmations to ERP (Material Management
and Controlling)

Technology-specific Processes
Continuous Improvement of Processes
High Level of Automation
Company Solutions (Deployment, Roll-out, Support,
Internationalisation, Security)
SAP-MII meets these demands
Functionally
- Integration
- Process Modelling
- Visualisation
Organizationally
- Lifecycle-Management
- Deployment
Structurally
- Standards
- Infrastructure
SAP-MII - Integration
•
ERP-Integration is the main asset
– Data Integration with SAP ERP via JCO, JRA, WAS, IDOC
– Access to other SAP NetWeaver-Components
– Integration of existing ERP-Functions
•
SAP ERP
Shop Floor
– Integration of all important OPC-Servers
– Integration of many SCADA-Systems and
Historians (OSIsoft…)

SAP-MII – Prozess Modelling
•
Graphical Interface for:
– Parameterization of Templates
– Integration of GUI-Components
– Implementation of Business Logic
•
Advantages:
– Clear structured, even when complex
integration of data from different source is
done
– Extinctive Component Library (Simulation,
JMS, Logs, Queuing, Email, PDF, XML,
…)

Advantages of SAP-MII in Projects
•
•
•
•
Platform mit with a high percentage of standard in all
areas, where normally much work has to be done in
projects (e.g. interfaces)
By this, concentration to process modelling is achieved
Otherwise flexible enough for an easy developement of
customer-specific solutions
Independence of Supplier
– Maintenance
– Extensions and continuous improvement
– Cooperations of several suppliers
