Enterprise control combines the strength of both business processes and production operations processes. It is the deliberate act of synchronizing business strategy with operational execution in real-time to enable closed loop business control across an enterprise. Enterprise control is the ability to combine control, intelligence and process management to enable business optimization that is inclusive of business and production operations. ==Key elements of enterprise control== *Enterprise resource planning (ERP) *Supply chain *Environment and safety systems *Assets *People Enterprise service-oriented architectures and industrial service-oriented architectures that interoperate with each other provide industrial companies with the potential for a problem solution that literally covers entire plants and entire industrial enterprises. In an interesting twist, this enterprise-wide system can be developed using systems and technologies previously installed. The resulting system, consisting of multiple vendor products acquired over many years working as a single system, is what is referred to as an enterprise control system.〔''Automation Made Easy: Everything You Wanted to Know about Automation-and Need to Ask'' Peter G. Martin, Gregory Hale〕 The enterprise control strategy is built around the premise that manufacturing needs an enterprise control system to integrate business systems and manufacturing in real-time. The concept of the enterprise control system encompasses everything from sensors and people in manufacturing to the ERP system. This logic does make sense since ERP systems have been refined over a number of years and they create tremendous efficiencies in business operations. Certainly I and others see the need for this integrated systems approach in manufacturing. This seems to be an elusive concept except at manufacturing companies that have extremely brilliant and industrious staff who assemble custom systems.〔Bill Lydon, Automation.com〕 An enterprise control system is the open architecture framework to integrate control systems with the enterprise while adding functions to improve business performance including MES, optimization, workflow, quality management, and asset management.〔Bill Lydon, Automation.com〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enterprise control」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
