A continuous recognition received since the launch of Gartner’s MES evaluation

We are pleased to announce that Siemens Digital Industries has been named by Gartner, Inc. as a “Leader” in its 2019 Magic Quadrant for Manufacturing Execution Systems. For 3 years in a row, we believe Siemens’ position continues to reflect our ability to deliver value to our customers, our proven results in portfolio innovation, and our “Completeness of Vision.”

This year, we executed on our vision to bring all MOM portfolio products under one brand, “Siemens Opcenter,” reducing complexity, increasing harmonization and leveraging synergies across our industry-leading products. We continue to serve thousands of customers across the globe and we are confident that we are one of only two vendors in the Magic Quadrant with mention of more than 2000 customers worldwide.

That is our ultimate mark of success – the success of our customers. Listening to their needs is what has driven us to invest in and broaden the functional scope of our portfolio. Today, we have proven, industry-leading solutions across Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Quality Management Systems (QMS), Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) and Shop Floor Manufacturing Intelligence (MI). In addition, the capabilities we leveraged from our Mentor Graphics acquisition in 2017 and its Valor offering are already showing positive results.

We continue to harmonize our MOM portfolio with our broader Siemens Digital Industries portfolio, creating a comprehensive digital twin that underpins closed-loop manufacturing – the essential characteristic of Smart Manufacturing. Across our entire technology offering, we focus on a personalized and adaptable user experience with an open and flexible architecture / eco-system – a key element for factories of the future and Industry 4.0 readiness.

Along with our portfolio investments & innovations, we are acknowledging what our customers and market are telling us and continue to strengthen our project delivery & implementations, system integrators network. We are motivated further to put measures in deploying & supporting best-in-class implementations of our portfolio innovations.

In our opinion, we are recognized by Gartner because of our broader sales and services team, as well as our system integrator network, we will maximize that strength further in delivering smoother deployments supporting our customers’ digitalization journey. That portfolio success spans major players in industries such as A&D, Automotive, Industrial Machinery, CPG, F&B, Life Sciences, Electronics, Semiconductor, and Medical Devices.

We believe that we hold a unique position in the manufacturing market. We provide a holistic solution that supports the entire value chain: ideation, product and production design, simulation, automation, manufacturing execution, quality management, and plant hardware. We have coupled this with MindSphere – the open, cloud-based operating system for the IIoT, and Mendix, a low-code rapid application development platform.

We are leading the charge into the future of Smarter Manufacturing, creating competitive advantages through complexity for Holistic Digital Twin, Personalization and Open, flexible ecosystem and ensuring our customers are equipped to lead their respective industries, too. 

Companies were assessed on: 

  • Ability to Execute covering aspects such as products or service, overall viability, market responsiveness/record, marketing execution, operations and customer experience.
  • Completeness of Vision which covers aspects such as product strategy, innovation, understanding of market and industry verticals.
