The Importance of Abstract MES Data Models

A lot of MES is fall down because they try too hard to have an explicit fully encapsulated quality event or failure event. John, that makes it pretty common with a lot of others. I would argue that probably where leverage can be found is if that MES data model is reasonably abstract. The more abstract under the bonnet the actual event models are and the spec models, the closer you get to my view, which is 60% to 70% leverage from a package.
