Guide to ERP-MES integration
A practical guide from the Felten Group describes the advantages and disadvantages of close interaction between the two systems and provides examples of how their core competencies can be used most effectively. With ERP and MES solutions, manufacturing companies typically have two systems at their disposal, one for business management functions and the other for production management. The guide answers the question of how the two systems can work together. The guide "MES and ERP systems as a cooperating or competing team?" takes a closer look at the requirements and solutions. Specific practical examples are used to illustrate how the core competencies of both systems can be used most effectively to optimize production.
