Here is the gap, and why it matters. - [Improve the process before you add analytics](https://www.vector11.io/insights/improve-the-process-before-adding-analytics): Advanced analytics cannot fix an unstable process or interpret data without context. Why the foundation comes first. - [MES in greenfield and brownfield plants](https://www.vector11.io/insights/mes-in-greenfield-and-brownfield-plants): The goals are the same, but the starting points are very different. How the MES approach changes between a new plant and a running one. - [Specifying data interfaces in OEM purchase orders](https://www.vector11.io/insights/specifying-interfaces-in-oem-purchase-orders): For a new plant, the cheapest integration is the one written into the equipment order. What to specify and why. - [Traceability needs execution governance, not just data](https://www.vector11.io/insights/traceability-needs-execution-governance): Collecting more data does not create traceability. Linking the right data to the right product, at the right moment, does. - [What a manufacturing blueprint should contain](https://www.vector11.io/insights/what-a-manufacturing-blueprint-should-contain): A good blueprint is more than a requirements list. Nine components that turn a transformation idea into a plan you can deliver. ## Optional - [Home](https://www.vector11.io/): Vector11 helps industries improve performance through industrial automation, SMART MES, enterprise intelligence and advanced AI capabilities. - [Privacy notice](https://www.vector11.io/privacy): How Vector11 collects, uses and protects information you share through this website, and how to contact us about your data. - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/vector11/): Vector11 company page.
