AVEVA Recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Process Manufacturing Execution System 2023 Vendor Assessment

PlanetTogether Aps is delighted to celebrate our partner, AVEVA, for their outstanding achievement in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Process Manufacturing Execution System 2023 Vendor Assessment. As a trusted partner of AVEVA, we are proud to collaborate with a global leader in industrial software that drives digital transformation, sustainability, and responsible resource utilization. Together, AVEVA and PlanetTogether are dedicated to providing comprehensive planning and scheduling solutions to empower manufacturers across the globe.

AVEVA's Model-Driven Approach Acknowledged: In the recently published IDC MarketScape report, AVEVA's MES (Manufacturing Execution System) was recognized for its model-driven approach, which supports the modeling of operational workflows, production processes, and equipment. This configurable business process management approach enables standardization of operational processes across multisite operations and provides a centralized management platform for data analysis with visualization. AVEVA's model-driven and process-based approach has been identified as one of their core strengths, aligning perfectly with the needs of core industries served by AVEVA. This recognition further solidifies AVEVA's position as a leader in driving digital transformation across capital-intensive industries.

Enhancing Operational Agility and Efficiency: Lorenzo Veronesi, Associate Research Director at IDC Manufacturing Insights, emphasized the importance for companies in continuous process or batch and hybrid manufacturing sectors to consider a Manufacturing Execution System that provides strong operational agility across multiple facilities and locations. AVEVA MES addresses this need by bridging the gap between business and plant collaboration, enabling manufacturers to improve the efficiency of their manufacturing networks. At PlanetTogether, we are thrilled to witness how AVEVA MES empowers our customers by providing agility and resilience, especially during disruptive times when the manufacturing value chain faces significant challenges.

AVEVA's Distinctive MES Capabilities: The IDC MarketScape report highlighted several distinctive MES capabilities of AVEVA. Firstly, AVEVA's MES incorporates a model-based approach, which includes a built-in full business process management (BPM) functionality. This feature allows for the execution of business logic in standard operator workflows through pre-configured workflow templates, enabling multi-site standardization and deployment, standardization of global key performance indicators (KPIs), industrial best practices, and continuous improvement.

Secondly, AVEVA Insight, a cloud-based tool, enables production optimization analysis through AI cloud capabilities/models. By analyzing data, AVEVA Insight provides predictive warnings and prescriptive actions. AVEVA's future plans include delivering artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) capabilities as value-added cloud services in AVEVA Insight, connecting on-premises AVEVA MES and PI System historical data to the cloud.

Lastly, AVEVA provides a breadth of adjacent solutions that complement its MES product functionalities. This includes asset performance management and value chain optimization, integrated production planning, scheduling, and execution capabilities. AVEVA's integration with MES extends to AVEVA System Platform and the AVEVA PI System, enabling agnostic device and control system connectivity for production event detection and automatic and semi-automatic data collection.

AVEVA's Impact on the Manufacturing Industry: AVEVA's presence in the process manufacturing, food and beverage, and consumer packaged goods sectors is significant. The IDC MarketScape report references key industry players, including Danone, Henkel, Valmet Automotive, Barry Callebaut, and Borg Manufacturing, as beneficiaries of AVEVA's solutions.

As a proud partner of AVEVA, PlanetTogether is excited to witness their recognition as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Process Manufacturing Execution System 2023.
