Sepasoft MES Orchestration for Digital Transformation

Manufacturing workflows are required to execute critical processes the right way – every time. The correct tasks must be carried out in the correct order, with the correct materials, approvals, quality checks, and accurate records, especially in regulated industries (e.g., 21 CFR Part 11). This objective, and true Digital Transformation, can only be accomplished with a platform that is integrated, agile, low-code, and feature-rich. Join us for a demonstration of our various MES offerings to showcase Sepasoft’s orchestrated workflow solution.

Deploying the Digital Foundations of a Modern, Connected Factory

Digital factory architectures usually grow organically as business requirements evolve and new technologies are developed. Modern technologies and approaches such as infrastructure-as-code, containerization, orchestration, and edge-driven operations solve many problems presented by legacy, organic, point-to-point based architectures. This presentation will give an overview of Factory+, a Sparkplug-powered, open-access digital factory framework developed by the AMRC, and how it can be used to rapidly and reliably deploy, manage and scale the digital foundations of a forward-thinking manufacturing facility.

Key Trends Helping Industry Overcome Digital Transformation Challenges

Digital Transformation is essential for industrial companies to meet the challenges of thriving in an environment where the only certainty is uncertainty. This is driving demand for deploying key technologies to better monitor and control operations, protect against downtime, ensure product fulfillment and high productivity, protect and upskill personnel, enable remote workforces, manage supply chains, and do this while leveraging enhanced cybersecurity architectures. To help industrial companies meet these challenges, this presentation will discuss what are the key technologies and trends that can help these companies accelerate Digital Transformation that enables improved productivity, profitability, agility, reliability, sustainability, resilience and efficiency.
