Wonderware Intelligence 2014 R2 manufacturing intelligence software

Schneider Electric Software has released its Wonderware Intelligence 2014 R2 enterprise manufacturing intelligence software. The latest version collects, calculates and contextualises data and metrics from multiple sources across the manufacturing operation, puts it into centralised storage and updates it all in near-real time. Because it is optimised for retrieval, the information can then be used to monitor KPIs via customisable dashboards, as well as for drill-down analysis and insights into operating and overall business performance.

The software calculates, contextualises and stores KPIs and other metrics data from the multiple systems and data sources that are used to run today’s industrial operations, including Schneider Electric’s software offerings, data historians and MES, HMI/SCADA and other industrial applications, as well as many other third-party plant sources. It is designed to help users gain near-real-time visibility and access to valuable operating and performance data that often sit in silos, such as within energy, alarm or manufacturing execution systems.

Improvements to Wonderware Intelligence 2014 R2 software include the ability to use stored procedures to increase the speed of queries; the ability to dynamically use start and end times for more precision queries; and streamlined administrator rights for the Intelligence service.

Additionally, Wonderware Intelligence Client (powered by Tableau Software) provides an easy-to-use self-service approach to information gathering, which empowers stakeholders to create and publish personalised charts, interactive reports and dashboards for collaboration and operational KPI monitoring and analysis.
