You are probably, like most manufacturing companies, looking to improve your manufacturing productivity by improving the efficiency of your various machines and other manufacturing facilities - by, in turn, improving your data driven management … monitoring the performance of those facilities in real-time. 

Connecting and analysing all that data is a big challenge.  

What you need are standards and protocols which allow you to share and connect your data which can then be imported into analytical systems to provide useful insights.

Of course, you could build custom code to do the job but the IoT scene is changing quickly and maintaining customer code over  time is going to  be difficult.

You need integrated platforms based around established protocols for inter-connectedness - platforms that can evolve over time to keep pace with technological change.

Manufacturing equipment makers, enterprise software developers - please help!
