Things to know when you want to deploy the MES . system

In the current industrial age, the smart factory trend is gradually emerging along with the digital transformation industry. And a new term appeared in the management system, which is the MES - Manufacturing Execution System.

What is MES and how is the role of MES in the current context, as well as how to distinguish MES from other management systems. It can be understood that MES is a solution that covers both IT and OT fields, very few systems can meet the needs of MES. This brings a series of new challenges that are completely different from other governance systems that are being solved by investors every day. These challenges relate to cultural and convergence related conflicts stemming from a lack of understanding of the different areas between IT and OT, affecting the implementation of MES systems.
