In this webinar Martyn Gill will be grilling two industry experts, Mike James from ATS and Tim Black from Siemens about the claims that MES solutions can now be delivered "out of the box".

Martyn remains unconvinced whilst Mike and Tim think real progress has been made to deliver MES in a box.

To avoid an academic discussion real case studies are used which represent both the discrete and semi-batch industries. Toyota and Carlsberg have agreed to allow the team to discuss their applications with some "live" examples.
