“NIST is conducting research on how ontologies can be applied to data in manufacturing, supply chain, and the circular economy,” said Boonserm Kulvatunyou, PhD, Systems Integration Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (U.S. Dept. of Commerce). “We feel that standardized ontologies have the potential to improve the data connectivity throughout the product and operation life cycles leading to better supply chain visibility and risk management. Our research indicates that a standardized set of reference ontologies that are semantically and logically consistent across operating sectors of manufacturing supply chains are necessary to realize the potential benefits. Industry needs the technical infrastructure to develop and specialize such ontologies. It is vital to have a standards development organization such as the IOF to create and maintain these important industry standards.”
