Executive Summary
Manufacturing operations management (MOM) software is evolving from its manufacturing execution system (MES) roots to become a core enabler of resilience, efficiency and strategic decision-making across industrial enterprises. Rapid shifts in global supply conditions, rising production complexity, widening workforce skills gaps and the growing maturity of AI are pushing firms to modernize legacy environments that can no longer support increasingly dynamic operational demands. This study outlines the current trajectory of the MOM market, highlighting how composable architectures, unified data foundations and intelligent decision-support capabilities are reshaping how manufacturers coordinate design, production, quality, maintenance, supply chains and services at scale. It also provides guidance for MES and MOM vendors seeking to align with evolving customer expectations and emerging solution capabilities.About the Authors
