SAP Digital Manufacturing Cloud (DMC)

SAP DMC: your gateway to Industry 4.0

SAP Digital Manufacturing Cloud (DMC) is an innovative, cloud-based manufacturing execution system (MES) that connects your business systems with your shop floor equipment and production processes. But SAP DMC does more than supporting end-to-end orchestration and execution. It also provides manufacturers with real-time and large-scale operational visibility – a gateway to Industry 4.0.

Stepping through that door marks your first move towards increased connectedness, future-proof automation, and cross-functional analytics in real time. Get ready for unseen process transparency, predictive maintenance, and optimization through artificial intelligence and machine learning. Additionally, optimal horizontal integration will enable you to successfully grow your operations at the same level of your value chain.

DMC is the first major step in a digital transformation towards industry 4.0

Cloud and clear

Every single day, we help lots of (global) clients move towards a cloud-based MES to keep up with technological developments and become future-proof. While manufacturing processes are literally an on-premises activity, you can reap many benefits by orchestrating them in the cloud. For example, it allows you to deploy critical functions on edge components. But the advantages don’t end there:

  • A central, global overview of all your manufacturing processes;
  • High scalability of your systems, in line with your organizational growth;
  • Real-time visibility and business insights – anywhere, anytime, on any device;
