ENTERPRISE-CONTROL SYSTEM INTEGRATION –

Part 4: Object model attributes for manufacturing
operations management integration

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62264-4 has been prepared by subcommittee 65E: Devices and
integration in enterprise systems, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial-process
measurement, control and automation, in co-operation with ISO technical committee 184/SC5:
Interoperability, integration and architectures for enterprise systems and automation
applications.
It is published as a double logo standard.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
65E/479/FDIS 65E/488/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on

voting indicated in the above table. In ISO, the standard has been approved In ISO, the standard
has been approved by 10 P members out of 10 having cast a vote.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts in the IEC 62264 series, published under the general title Enterprise-control
system integration, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
IMPORTANT – The 'colour inside' logo on the cover page of this publication indicates
that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct
understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this document using a
colour printer.

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 62264 defines the interfaces between enterprise activities and control
activities and is to be used in conjunction with IEC 62264-3.
The scope of this part of IEC 62264 is limited to defining the details of the information content
of interfaces within manufacturing operations management. The scope is limited to the
definition of object models and attributes for the information defined in IEC 62264-3. The goal
is to reduce the effort, cost, and errors associated with implementing these interfaces.
The standard may be used to reduce the effort associated with implementing new product
offerings. The goal is to have enterprise systems and control systems that interoperate and
easily integrate.
This part of IEC 62264 further defines the object models and attributes involved in data
exchange between activities of manufacturing operations management defined in 62264-3.
The models and terminology defined in IEC 62264-3 and this part of IEC 6226
a) emphasize good manufacturing operations management integration practices during the
entire life cycle of the systems;
b) can be used to improve existing integration capability of manufacturing operations
management systems; and
c) can be applied regardless of the degree of automation.
Specifically, IEC 62264-3 and this part of IEC 62264 provide a standard terminology and a
consistent set of concepts and models for integrating manufacturing operations management
systems that will improve communications between all parties involved. Benefits produced will
d) reduce the user’s time to reach full production levels for new products;
e) enable vendors to supply appropriate tools for implementing integration of manufacturing
operations management systems;
f) enable users to better identify their needs;
g) reduce the cost of automating manufacturing processes;
h) optimize supply chains; and
i) reduce life-cycle engineering efforts.
IEC 62264-3 and this part of IEC 62264 may be used to reduce the effort associated with
implementing new product offerings. The goal is to have manufacturing operations
management systems that interoperate and easily integrate.
It is not the intent of the standards to
1) suggest that there is only one way of implementing integration of manufacturing
operations management systems;
2) force users to abandon their current way of handling integration; or
3) restrict development in the area of integration of manufacturing operations management
systems.
