AMR Research: The Manufacturing Operations Software Application Market Sizing Report, 2006-2011

Published: October 29, 2007
Analyst: Alison Smith

"While SAP has placed its manufacturing operations bets on delivering performance visibility, an integration stack, and a strong network of manufacturing partners, Oracle is taking a different strategy, adding deep manufacturing operations management capabilities that are tightly integrated with core-ERP financial accounting functions, resource planning, and its Daily Business Intelligence. Oracle’s functionality for manufacturing execution rivals that offered by best-of-breed competitors and includes centralized creation of routings and workflows that accommodate local customization, part- and lot-level track and trace and genealogy, in-process quality tracking, work-in-process (WIP) tracking, marriage of as-built record with the as-planned product design, and of course, EAM functionality that can be linked directly to real-time asset status data via Oracle’s Sensor Edge server technology."
