Emerson Syncade Suite manufacturing execution system

Emerson Process Management has enhanced the Syncade Suite manufacturing execution system (MES) to help life science manufacturers simplify the transfer of recipes and manufacturing information between project phases and system environments — from design through to validation and production. The product automates the transfer of product recipes, material master information and configuration settings, while also enabling users to archive the associated order execution information in a secure environment.

Time to market is critical in the life science industry. Implementing a product recipe typically requires time-consuming verification that the production system reflects all the settings and configuration work implemented through the development and test process. With Syncade transfer and archive functionality, users reduce rework by automating the transfer of information from the development environment to the validation environment and the production environment.

In addition, the system enables users to efficiently manage the archiving of orders, materials and inventory data. Because archived information is stored in a database separate from the transactional database, users do not overload or slow down the database used for day-to-day operations. Current and past data can be searched and retrieved quickly.
