“ We need all these systems to‘ talk’ to each other in real-time and in the‘ same language’,” Iurii notes. In highlyfragmented enterprise environments with rapid technology development, the landscape changes quickly. Robust, rapid changes require this common language to be standardised, with systems understanding data meaning identically.
Various standards have emerged to support semantic interoperability since the 2000s and modern manufacturing software must support these standards to remain viable. OLSOM’ s AGW platform incorporates this interoperability by design, enabling seamless integration with diverse enterprise systems through standard protocols and data models.
Adaptability in a changing landscape Beyond connecting with current systems, manufacturing software must adapt to accommodate future requirements. The pace of technological change has accelerated dramatically. Where manufacturing execution systems once maintained 10-year lifecycles, today’ s technology evolves every 2-3 years.
Modern systems must be flexible and open to support new tools, processes and production topologies. This adaptability represents a critical selection criterion unless manufacturers wish to replace their software every few years – an expensive and disruptive proposition.
The AGW platform’ s no-code architecture provides this flexibility, allowing configuration changes without programming and enabling rapid adaptation to evolving requirements.
It is built around modular flexibility, allowing customers to choose and pay only for the capabilities they need from eight configurable modules: Planning & Monitoring, Digital Assets, Track & Trace, Workforce Management & Training, Maintenance & Deviation, Quality Control & SPC, Inventory Management and Production Sequencing.
Ultimately, modular licensing ensures manufacturers retain the ability to scale as operations grow.
