Enterprise Architecture Design and Implementation for IoT Integration in Manufacturing Electrical Panels

Abstract

Internet of Things technology has transformed manufacturing efficiency and optimization. Electrical panel manufacturing benefits from Internet of Things for better functionality, predictive maintenance, and smoother operations. This study examines the design and implementation of an Enterprise Architecture strategy for seamless Internet of Things integration in electrical panel manufacturing. This research aims to explain Enterprise Architecture and use it as a framework for Internet of Things integration in electrical panel manufacturing. This study examines the complex relationships between Internet of Things components, their connectivity, and a broad Enterprise Architecture framework needed to organize their functionality. This integration uses Enterprise Architecture principles to optimize resource use, reduce downtime, and improve manufacturing efficiency. This effort involves analyzing existing infrastructure, identifying Internet of Things deployment points, and creating an Enterprise Architecture plan that meets business goals. This research emphasizes the need for close IT-operations collaboration to achieve a unified vision and smooth Internet of Things integration. This research addresses Internet of Things implementation challenges in manufacturing, including security, data interoperability, and scalability. Strong governance and adaptable architecture are stressed to address these challenges within an Enterprise Architecture framework. This research aims to help electrical panel manufacturers harness the transformative power of the Internet of Things. Strategic Enterprise Architecture helps businesses navigate complexity, leverage Internet of Things, and create a more agile, connected, and optimized manufacturing landscape.
