Shop-floor standardisation
Executable workflows must remain consistent regardless of operator, machine or shift.

02
Opcenter Execution
Execute production orders under control on the shop floor, with real-time visibility of WIP, materials and product genealogy.
With Siemens Opcenter Execution, transform design and planning data into real manufacturing operations and manage resources, materials, quality and production confirmations on one MES backbone.
Explore the product
Turn variable products, resources and workflows into standardised, traceable and validated manufacturing outcomes.
WIP visibility
The current status of every order, serial/lot, material and operation must be known in real time.
Product genealogy
As-built records must retain material, equipment, process and quality context.
/ MES OPERATIONS BACKBONEManufacture the planned product
Manufacture the planned product
exactly as intended.
Opcenter Execution transforms production orders into executable shop-floor tasks, guides operators and records automation events in product context.
DispatchAssign the right job to the right resource
TrackMonitor WIP and materials
EnforceApply the standard process
- Resource controlPersonnel, equipment, tools and material availability are verified before operation.
- Electronic instructionsCurrent documents, parameters and inspection steps are presented to operators in context.
- Production recordsConsumption, output, downtime and deviations are recorded in real time.
The production order progresses,
and the product record grows with it.
Every operation is governed by the validated result of the previous step and the readiness conditions of the next.
CONTEXTDECISIONRESULT
/ CAPABILITIESControl and visibility
Control and visibility
at every manufacturing step.
Capabilities are configured according to product structure, manufacturing model and regulatory requirements.
Production-order management
Jobs are dispatched according to priority, route and resource conditions.
Workflow and WIP
Work-in-progress location, status and next operation are tracked.
Material management
Lot, serial, shelf-life and consumption rules are enforced.
Operator guidance
Competencies, instructions and data entry are presented by role.
Product genealogy
As-planned and as-built relationships can be queried forward and backward.
Manufacturing intelligence
Cycle, downtime, efficiency and loss data are contextualised.
Do more than start the job;
verify its completion conditions.
An operation does not progress until material, resource, process and quality conditions are satisfied.
Order and resources
Production conditions are validated.
→Operations and data
Work steps are executed.
→Quality and deviations
Limits and exceptions are managed.
→Confirmation and genealogy
The record is closed and shared.
From pilot to multiple sites,
in six controlled steps.
- 01Select the product family
A representative line and use case are selected.
- 02Map the process model
Operations, resources, materials and control points are defined.
- 03Design the integration
ERP, PLM, automation and identity systems are connected.
- 04Configure the pilot
Interfaces, rules, roles and reports are implemented.
- 05Validate acceptance
Normal, deviation and recovery scenarios are tested on site.
- 06Template and scale
The validated model is deployed to other lines and sites.
Adaptable MES
for different manufacturing models.
Discrete manufacturing
Complex assembly, variants and serial-level traceability.
Process manufacturing
Recipes, batches, consumption and process parameters.
Electronics
NPI, SMT, component and machine integration.
Regulated manufacturing
Electronic records, audit trails and signature workflows.
