Overview
Integration and synchronization of all business processes
with SIMATIC IT
with SIMATIC IT
In order to remain competitive, manufacturers must shorten their
product launch times, increase production transparency and
flexibility, optimize planning and scheduling, and reduce waste,
storage costs and downtimes. At the same time, directives and
high-quality standards must be observed in the global produc-
tion locations, and maximum productivity and optimum costs
must be guaranteed.
Manufacturing Execution Systeme (MES), such as SIMATIC IT
Manufacturing Execution Systeme (MES), such as SIMATIC IT
from Siemens, permit effective integration of product processes
and material management systems, and support the coordina-
tion of all equipment and applications relevant to production dur-
ing all phases.
SIMATIC IT can be used to model the complete production
SIMATIC IT can be used to model the complete production
know-how, to precisely define the operating processes, and to
record data in real-time from the ERP and production levels. It is
then possible to control corporate processes more effectively, to
minimize downtimes, production waste and postprocessing, to
optimize stockkeeping, and to react rapidly and flexibly to
changing customer requirements.

Design
SIMATIC IT consists of various components designed for differ-
ent tasks which can all be coordinated by the SIMATIC IT Pro-
duction Modeler.
The basic functions are implemented using SIMATIC IT compo-
The basic functions are implemented using SIMATIC IT compo-
nents. These are available in the form of the following product
bundles:
• SIMATIC IT Plant Intelligence (formally known as MIS - Man-
• SIMATIC IT Plant Intelligence (formally known as MIS - Man-
agement Information System)
Defines key performance indicators conforming to the plant
model. SIMATIC IT Plant Intelligence allows realistic assess-
ment of the plant performance.
• SIMATIC IT Genealogy Management
For materials management in the entire company, taking into
account the legal terms and conditions. Typical tasks are re-
verse and forwards genealogy, fundamental material monitor-
ing, and synchronization of material master data with the ERP
system.
• SIMATIC IT Order Management
For job management from planning to execution, including
scheduling, materials planning, new planning of sequence,
monitoring and recording of execution.
Further bundles are available, e.g. SIMATIC IT Basic Tracking &
Tracing, SIMATIC IT Basic Production Management or
SIMATIC IT Production Suite, providing a fully-scaled product
portfolio.
Summary of SIMATIC IT bundles
Each of these product bundles contains the optional SIMATIC IT
Client Application Builder (CAB) which provides the GUI for the
MES applications in a complete Web-based environment. Pat-
ented functions for optimization of image updating are available
based on standard technology. The SIMATIC IT Client Applica-
tion Builder offers complete support for operator stations which
require practically no administrative overhead (so-called zero
administration cost clients).
