While most Business Intelligence applications work in the realm of months, weeks and days, Manufacturing Intelligence solutions need to consolidate information spanning timescales ranging from minutes to months, providing for real time monitoring and alerting as well as long term trending.

While control and auomation systems can be relied upon for real-time trending and alarming, a Manufacturing Intelligence solution needs to be able to collate, compare and contrast data across different products and items of equipment, production lines and production runs and across different plants.
