Honeywell Connected Plant vs. SAP Digital Manufacturing

For a big plant with more number of connected machines, this is best suited. On the other hand if it is small plant then cost wise this is quite costly.

Discrete industry - it is well suited. The reports available are useful. Process industry - if you can make the PI sheet availability in pod as an extension it would be useful.

Incentivized

• Connectivity between the devices
• Data management between human and machine
• Cyber attack prevention

• Automation using triggers and PPDs
• Shopfloor tracking using asset managements
• Low Code No Code dev style for POD interface development
• Intuitive dashboards using SAC

Incentivized

• Costing part to be looked on
• Solution for small industries

• There are many gaps in reporting and insights. MDOs do not have the fields that we are looking for
• No triggers to time based data collection by operators
• No ability to track the status of data collections
• No good way to use the back up resources

As we go for more and more Automation the requirement of connectivity increases with security from cyber-attacks.

Most of the modern plants are going for IIOT and trying to optimize, monitor and predict the future requirement in terms of Inventory, Cost, Maintenance, Diagnostics and orders.

Honeywell Connected Plant does this job efficiently.

The feedback from our end users has been overwhelmingly positive, indicating strong adoption and satisfaction with the solution. This demonstrates that the system meets most functional expectations and supports daily operations effectively. However, performance remains an area for improvement. Addressing this will further enhance user experience and ensure the solution scales efficiently for future growth.

Honeywell provides good support even at remote site Like we did.

Availability of resources and time.

I have used and worked on SAP ME/MII. This product(SAP DM) is far better in every way than the older sibling - ME/MII. This is completely cloud based solution which removes the hinderances of procuring and managing an on-prem solution. And as this is a cloud based solution, it also enables a very smooth scalability of the deployment across various plants

Incentivized

• ROI for the Bigger plant is always there, considering the bid data management
• Omission of manual errors.
• If Planned early will have easy implementation.

• Fit to standards manufacturing solution is certainly positive
• Excessive customizations are not recommended if you are looking for a true digital transformation with high ROI and future proof
