About this ebook

Do you want to dramatically lower total cost of ownership (TCO) for manufacturing IT architectures and manufacturing, as well as reduce supply chain operational costs? The methodologies and technical applications presented in this first annual ISA-95/MESA Best Practices book will help get you started on the right track. This book provides in-depth coverage on how you can apply ISA-95, Enterprise-Control Integration Standard, to help lower TCO of manufacturing operations management (MOM) systems and their enterprise and plant interfaces. It consists of a series of related “how-to” white papers described in the context of ISA-95 models, definitions, and data exchanges.

To be competitive, actual manufacturing operations activities must be highly interactive in supply chain and enterprise processes for effective collaboration and competition. This is the domain of collaborative and flexible MOM system architectures. This book explains the business cases for using evolving ISA-95 methods to effectively design, implement, change and optimize the MOM business processes and supporting MOM system architectures within the distributed pull supply chains.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

    As the Chair of the ISA-95/MESA Best Practices Working Group (95BPWG), I have had the honor of working with nine white paper committees over the past year and a half to put together the first collection of ISA-95 best practices white papers as Book 1.0. These white paper committees were comprised of members (authors and reviewers) from 25 companies and 11 countries, which demonstrates how ISA-95 is being applied globally.

    This work was made possible by the great contributions of Brandy Richardson (MESA International), Susan Colwell (ISA), and Scott Clark (Logica Design, Inc.). They are to be recognized for their exceptional efforts in making this book a high quality piece of work.

    In addition, the chapters in this book were developed by the hard work of the following authors, contributing editors, and reviewers.

    INTRODUCTION LAYERS OF ISA-95 TRANSLATION...

    Hello All!

    As the Chair of the ISA-95/MESA Best Practices Working Group (95BPWG), I have had the honor of working with nine white paper committees over the last year and a half to put together the first collection of ISA-95 best practices white papers as Book 1.0. These white paper committees were comprised of members (authors and reviewers) from 23 companies and 11 countries, which shows how ISA-95 is being applied globally.

    For the newcomer, ISA-95 is a standard called the Enterprise-Control Integration Standard. It is made up of four approved parts with one in draft and one proposed. Chapters 1-3 contain white papers that provide the ISA-95 overview, comparison to related manufacturing IT standards, and the business case. The newcomer may want to first read either Chapter 2 or 3 depending on whether they want to start with an overview of the standard or a survey of manufacturing IT standards.

    The 95BPWG was formed to create a public forum to publish the most current ISA-95 technical and methodology applications while simultaneously evolve a manufacturing application framework (MAF). This is our goal. Within Book 1.0 and each ongoing Book X.0, the current MAF will be updated and defined in White Paper #1. As each collection of white papers is mapped to the MAF, each Book X.0 provides a vehicle for the ISA-95 based MAF and best practices to evolve and be documented efficiently and openly. This provides public methodologies for manufacturing operations management (MOM). End users, vendors, and integrators consider the lack of public MOM methodologies as the major barrier to adoption of the ISA-95 and MOM software space. The white papers also provide a public vehicle to document how the ISA-95 standard is working or needs correction to function better in
