POMS Corp. Incorporates Wonderware InTouch into POMS MES
HERNDON, Va.--(BW HealthWire)--June 24, 1998--Industry's leading MES expands capabilities with leading HMI
POMS Corp. and Wonderware Corp. announced Wednesday the two companies have signed an OEM agreement under which Wonderware InTouch(TM), the industry's leading human machine interface (HMI), will be incorporated into POMS Corp.'s POMS MES(TM), the industry's leading manufacturing execution system (MES).
POMS Corp. will sell and support InTouch as a new product option for POMS ECi. POMS ECi is POMS Corp.'s standard product module which tightly integrates equipment controls into the POMS MES application. The POMS ECi/Wonderware option will further expand the capabilities of POMS MES by including enhanced process graphics and a broad range of device drivers into an already functionally rich MES application.

"Wonderware's market leadership in our key markets is very
appealing to POMS Corp. We are extremely pleased to be adding
InTouch's comprehensive functionality to our product offering.
Customers and prospective customers of both companies can now
easily implement these two industry-leading products as
one seamless solution to increase consistency of quality,
reduce manufacturing costs, and increase customer responsiveness
through manufacturing agility. No other MES supplier in our
industry can offer this broad range of functionality combined
with the domain expertise required to be a successful
MES solution provider."
Joe Cowan, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Sales of Wonderware Corp. added:
"We are delighted that POMS Corporation is integrating
Wonderware's InTouch into POMS MES, the leading MES solution
in the healthcare products industries. We are confident that both
Wonderware customers and POMS customers will take advantage of the
offering because manufacturing companies now have a clear way to
bring together their plant floor automation and manufacturing
execution applications into a tightly integrated enterprise-wide
supply chain execution solution."
