SIMATIC IT is the MES portfolio from Siemens and includes a wide range of Manufacturing Execution and Intelligence Functionality.
Manufacturing is a key part of the value chain, which is why SIMATIC IT integrates with the control and automation and with the business level, but also with the Siemens PLM software portfolio.
Siemens does not believe in One Size fits All. SIMATIC IT offers flexibility through its technological nature while its architecture allows it to adapt to the specific requirements of different industrial processes.

SIMATIC IT Libraries

SIMATIC IT is a standard software platform with a workflow modeler that manages the behavior of the generic MES functions installed.
By completing this platform with industry specific libraries, it is possible to create a system that combines the best of two worlds: standard software for the cost and the maintenance, with industry specific solutions allowing the best fit to the production process, according to the industry.
SIMATIC IT Libraries include preconfigured rules and workflows, industry specific and relevant user interfaces, as well as reporting.

Libraries can decrease the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the system, as they can be easily repeated for further plants operating in similar circumstances.

 
SIMATIC IT for Process Industries is an out of the box package for manufacturers in Food & Beverage, Tobacco, Home and Personal Care and (fine) chemicals that includes libraries which are particularly tailored to fit the needs in primary and secondary manufacturing, as well as the needs to connect to the R&D Area.
SIMATIC IT for Process Industry provides production execution capabilities, as well integrated quality functionality. It also ensures complete and realtime equipment visibility and production line monitoring according to different roles, tasks and authorizations in production management.
 
SIMATIC IT for Discrete Industries

SIMATIC IT offers a fully dedicated solution for discrete manufacturers having to manage engineer-to-order, manufacture to order or manufacture to stock processes for the automotive and trucks industries, aerospace, mechanical and electronic assembly.
SIMATIC IT for Discrete Industry ensures greater process-flexibility and efficiency, complete integration of regulatory requirements and reduction in maintenance and operation costs.

SIMATIC IT for Life Sciences offers pharmaceutical manufacturers, one of the broadest ranges of prevalidated MES functionalities currently available in the market, while at the same time supporting guidelines and rules from the FDA. The implementation of MES, including industry specific functionality such as Weighing and Dispensing, electronic batch records etc. will allow companies to improve manufacturing processes, enforce quality and regulatory compliance and shorten time-to-production and time-to-market.
