iTAC acknowledged in the 2023 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for MES report

iTAC Software AG (www.itacsoftware.com) ranked highest in the Complex Discrete Manufacturing Use Case in the Gartner Critical Capabilities for Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) report. In two other Use Cases out of four – Batch/Repetitive Flow Manufacturing Use Case and Highly Regulated Industries Use Case – the company ranked 2nd. This research helps supply chain technology leaders match needs with solution capabilities in the market.

Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) are an important component for intelligent factories and digital manufacturing. The offerings of market participants differ depending on the application and industry focus. The Critical Capabilities Report for MES evaluates MES products against a specific set of critical capabilities and use-case scenarios. In contrast, the Magic Quadrant compares MES vendors in terms of Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute. iTAC scored highest in the Complex Discrete Manufacturing Use Case in the Critical Capabilities Report for MES. In the Highly Regulated Industries and Batch/Repetitive Flow Manufacturing Use Cases iTAC ranked 2nd. This means that the company’s MES/MOM is among the two highest scoring vendors in three of the four Use Cases.

iTAC Software AG is a subsidiary of the Dürr Group and offers a holistic manufacturing management system. iTAC’s Manufacturing Execution System, which has been established in the market for many years, was further developed into the Manufacturing Operations Management System iTAC.MOM.Suite in 2021.

The solution is designed for discrete manufacturing – from single piece to series and mass production – and can be operated both on-premises and in the cloud. It is used worldwide by companies in a variety of industries, including automotive manufacturing and supply, electronics/EMS/TC, medical, metalworking, and energy.

The recognition in the Critical Capabilities Report for MES follows iTAC’s recent recognition as a Leader in the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Manufacturing Execution Systems.
