Distributed Manufacturing with SAP and Cisco

Extending Visibility Throughout the Supply Chain

Distributed Manufacturing with SAP and Cisco provides global organizations with a platform that provides improved visibility, agility, and cost-effectiveness throughout today's increasingly fragmented value chain. Delivering end-to-end oversight of the manufacturing process, this combined system is based on proven technologies from two of the world's most recognized technology companies. Together, Cisco and SAP combine their industry-leading capabilities to deliver end-to-end visibility to the manufacturing environment.

Integrate Security and Increase Efficiency

This comprehensive supply chain system supports increased efficiency and secure, real-time visibility by integrating SAP's Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (MII) software with Cisco Service-Oriented Network Architecture (SONA). This standards-based platform uses existing infrastructure, data systems, and sources to provide insight into relevant systems across the multi-tier manufacturing environment. Manufacturers benefit from the ability to:

  • Extend manufacturing intelligence across the distributed manufacturing environment and across enterprise boundaries
  • Identify business critical events and alert managers
  • Deliver real-time communication and collaboration in response to manufacturing events
  • Improve executive decision making
  • Utilize existing systems and data sources through efficient deployment models
