ANSI/ISA-95 Enterprise/Control System Integration - Overview
1/2 Day Class

This class is an overview of the ISA-95 and IEC/ISO 62264 standard for Enterprise System to Control System Integration. It describes the business reasons for the standard, the benefits that companies have achieved with Enterprise/Control System Integration, and an overview of the type of information that is exchanged between business systems (ERP, SCM, PLM) and manufacturing systems (MES, LIMS, WMS, and CMM). The class includes an overview of the XML schemas developed by the World Batch Forum, that are currently being used in business to manufacturing integration. (Code: BRL-95-OH)

ANSI/ISA-95 Enterprise/Control System Integration - Information
1 Day Class

This class describes the ISA-95 and IEC/ISO 62264 standard for Enterprise System to Control System Integration. It describes the information that is exchanged between business systems (ERP, SCM, PLM) and manufacturing systems (MES, LIMS, WMS, and CMM). Formal models for this information are presented, including mapping of this information to SAP data structures used in ERP-to-MES integration. The class includes a detailed look at the XML schemas developed by the World Batch Forum, that are currently being used in business to manufacturing integration.

ANSI/ISA-95 Models of Manufacturing Operations
1 Day Class

This class defines the emerging model of manufacturing operations defined in the draft ANSI/ISA-95 Part 3 standard. This model is an extension of the MESA model for MES and describes a common structure that is being used by multiple manufacturing companies to describe their production operations. The class also defines mapping of the model activities to different types of software solutions, such as MES, plant data historians, recipe management systems, and production analysis tools. The class also describes the activity model for quality lab operations, maintenance management operations, and inventory transfer operations. Multiple companies are using the ISA-95 Part 3 models to specify vendor systems in MES, maintenance, and quality. (Code: BRL-95-P3)
