Manufacturing

Discrete, process and mixed-mode production.

Oracle Fusion Cloud Manufacturing provides industrial manufacturers with an integrated, SaaS-based platform to execute discrete and process manufacturing workflows while synchronizing shop floor data with ERP and supply chain processes. By linking production routines directly to financial, procurement, and inventory modules, companies can lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and scale effectively. These target use cases cross standard discrete, process, and complex mixed-mode production environments. The list below shows how flexibly the product fits different industries.
