MESA Strategic initiatives

In the nineties, MESA defined the world wide known 11 functions of MES. In 2003, MESA extended the MESA-11 into the collaborative MES model. From 2007, MESA is focusing on Strategic Initiatives (MSI) and at the end of last year the first 5 guidebooks on these MSI's were published (read more ...). MESA also promotes the spread and use of standards like ANSI/ISA-95.
Regularly, MESA publishes new white papers and guidebooks, broadcasting webinars on actual subjects, like "Manufacturing Operations Management: Insights for MESA Members" and "Improving Performance in Difficult Times: MESA Study Shows How".
