In WP4 – Data Interoperability (IDS), Sistrade focused on its developments in ensuring seamless data exchange and interoperability for ERP/MES systems and other enterprise solutions. These advancements aim to establish a cohesive digital ecosystem that enables efficient connectivity and promotes collaboration across the value chain.
During the live demonstration segment, attendees had the chance to interact with prototypes and operational models of the solutions being developed under the TEXP@CT project.
