Proficy Enterprise Connector 1.5 provides bidirectional enterprise integration between Proficy and ERP systems such as SAP. The introduction of this real-time capability allows manufacturers to establish flexible production operations, helping them remain competitive in the global economy. The Enterprise Connector enables the mapping of the external Business Systems requests to/from the Proficy Information Architecture. The Proficy Enterprise Connector leverages the ISA-95 standard to define the interface between a company’s enterprise business system and manufacturing systems through the XML-based Business to Manufacturing Markup Language (B2MML) schema. It automatically generates B2MML schemas and message types for immediate use in orchestrations and/or mapping. It also exchanges messages from the various connected business applications with Proficy, which enables ERP visibility into Production Management real-time data for material consumption, performance reporting, schedule execution and other supply chain and/or enterprise-level functions.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
