Geometric Limited, a specialist in engineering and manufacturing solutions and technologies, today announced that it is working closely with Oracle and will become a system integrator for Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center.
As part of the relationship, Geometric is announcing two important initiatives to help customers benefit from Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center. First, Geometric is currently the only System Integrator (SI) authorized to test and to certify solutions that connect Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center to shopfloor devices. Products from Kepware, Matrikon and ILS are being tested for Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center compatibility for real-time connectivity and performance by Geometric.
Second, based on the feedback from the Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center Customer Advisory Board, Geometric has defined a RapidValue Solution Package to enable fast realization of tangible business value from Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center. This package helps customers minimize risk and realize benefits from Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center within weeks, and mitigate typical implementation uncertainties related to cost, scope and time.
Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center addresses the need for accurate and timely information about product and process quality, insight into manufacturing operations, and performance of manufacturing assets. It solves the complex problem of connecting fragmented, disconnected shopfloor data to the business context of back-office systems. The product is designed to be ERP agnostic. This combination delivers real-time monitoring and analysis of shopfloor operations ? a foundation for running Continuous Improvement (CI) programs such as Lean and Six Sigma.
?Geometric has demonstrated a commitment to the manufacturing software marketplace and built a team by bringing together industry experts with extraordinary skills,? said Oracle?s Manish Modi, Vice President, Manufacturing and PLM Development. ?This makes Geometric a very important and trusted partner for Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center. Geometric is one of the select companies that has in-depth knowledge of Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center capabilities and implementation processes.?
?Geometric is committed to the manufacturing operations domain, and we are very happy to announce these two initiatives for Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center. We believe that the RapidValue Solution Package will allow customers to deploy Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center in a very short period of time, and leverage the solution to reduce cost and improve quality,? said Kamal Ajitsaria, Head of Manufacturing IT Practice at Geometric.
Geometric has also set up an Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center lab in its Pune facility with a complete test setup of the Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center, connectivity solutions from Oracle?s shopfloor communication partners, and PLCs to mimic a realistic shopfloor systems environment. In this lab, the solutions from Oracle?s shopfloor communication provider partners are tested and certified for connectivity and integration with Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center.
The Oracle Manufacturing Operations Center team in Geometric is also working actively with Oracle to develop prototype solutions and add-on applications.
Geometric is a member of the Oracle PartnerNetwork.
