INFORMATION UNIFICATION BE-TWEEN ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING SYSTEM AND PRODUC-TION CONTROL SYSTEM
●INTRODUCTION
■The business world surrounding the manufacturing industry is undergoing rapid and drastic changes.Achieving production activities that can respond swiftly to such environmental changes has become an urgent task. This trend has focused attention on the integration of information between the ERP system and production control system. Information integration has become an important issue for applying the enterprise business model to real-time management.Now, customers can benefit from Yokogawa’s Manufacturing Execution System (MES). MES links up the ERP system and production control system in order to realize the information integration. The following is an overview of a software package developed by Yokogawa as a key component for MES and its role as a direct, hot communication link between the two systems labor-saving systems in the production site of the process industry are now highly advanced. While business systems at management headquarters have indeed expanded to cover production management, i.e., so called logistics, the ERP system at management headquarters and the production control system in the plant site have advanced separately and become quite different, from the viewpoint of an overall enterprise system hierarchy. Not only this, but since each division is responsible for adopting its own system, no consideration has been given to the exchange of information between systems. The lack of compatibility between the systems means that there is an information “gap domain,”as is shown in Figure 1.
