ERP + SCADA + OEE integration
Connect business context, plant operations and OEE indicators.
We design data flows that help relate orders, resources and operational events for analysis and decisions. The architecture is defined from each organization’s sources, interfaces, permissions and goals.
Talk about an integrationCONCEPTUAL OUTLINE · PLANT AND SYSTEMS
From the physical process to digital context
From inventory to a governed flow
A useful integration starts by understanding what the operation needs.
The goal is not to connect everything indiscriminately: it is to agree on what information is needed, at what quality, and to support which analysis or process.
- 01 / 04
Understand the sources
Identify ERP and SCADA/MES systems and relevant data, along with owners, formats, interfaces and access restrictions.
- 02 / 04
Prepare the flow
Define extraction, validation, transformation and loading (ETL/ELT) according to the agreed frequency, quality and use of the data.
- 03 / 04
Add context
Relate plant events to orders, products, resources or indicators without assuming the sources share the same model.
- 04 / 04
Agree on controls
Specify permissions, owners, traceability, error handling and validation before enabling the defined flow.
Business systems
ERP and business applications.
Orders, products, inventory, costs and planning can add context to plant events. Availability depends on the environment’s interfaces, licenses and permissions.
Operational systems
SCADA, MES and plant sources.
States, events and signals require proper definitions and treatment before being used in indicators. The type of connection and its frequency are agreed case by case; this page does not imply certified compatibility with any specific vendor.
Operations and OEE
From operational data to a decision the team can review.
OEE organizes availability, performance and quality to observe losses and guide improvement questions. The indicator provides context: it does not replace validating causes, nor does it define an action on its own.
Production
Sequences orders, resources and materials under real capacity, costs and commitments.
Capacity
Compares shift, bottleneck and utilization scenarios before committing resources.
Maintenance
Prioritizes interventions with availability, operational risk and cost as constraints.
Logistics
Balances routes, fleet, time windows and service levels in explainable scenarios.
Planning
Organizes demand, inventory and priorities into feasible, auditable decisions.
Simulation
Makes trade-offs and expected impact visible before changes are made.
Responsible scope
Reading and traceability first; automation only when it is defined.
Each initiative must agree on authorized sources, access controls, data quality, error handling and operational responsibilities. Writing to plant systems, automatic actions and real-time requirements are separate scope decisions, not assumptions of an integration.
Let’s define what information your operation needs to connect.
A Discovery helps specify sources, constraints, owners and criteria for evaluating the integration flow.
