M/019 - Manufact. Message Specs. (MMS)
Standardization Mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS)
Mandate M/019 requests CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to develop standardization in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications related to the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS). The goal is to establish common standards for MMS to ensure interoperability and efficient communication within manufacturing systems. This initiative supports the harmonization of messaging protocols used in industrial automation, facilitating seamless data exchange and integration across diverse manufacturing environments in the European market.
Purpose
The mandate M/019 aims to standardize the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) within the sectors of Information Technology and Telecommunications. MMS is a key communication protocol used for messaging within manufacturing systems to ensure interoperability and efficient data exchange.
Standardisation request
This mandate requests the European standardisation bodies CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to develop harmonized standards for MMS. The focus is on creating common technical specifications that support seamless communication and integration among various manufacturing equipment and systems.
Expected deliverables
- A set of agreed-upon standards defining the MMS protocol for manufacturing environments.
- Technical documents that specify messaging formats, communication procedures, and interoperability requirements.
- Standards facilitating consistent implementation across manufacturers and technology providers within the IT and telecommunications domains applied to manufacturing.
Context
Manufacturing processes increasingly rely on digital communication for automation and system integration. The MMS protocol plays a crucial role in enabling machines and control systems to exchange real-time information. Standardizing MMS aligns with the European Union's objectives to enhance industrial interoperability, reduce technical barriers, and support the digital transformation of manufacturing industries.
This mandate covers the development of standardisation in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications specifically related to Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS), which involves communication standards for manufacturing processes and systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/019 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Standardization Mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS)". Standardization Mandate forwarded to CEN/CENELEC/ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) There are 2 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
