This article discusses an approach to the development of a control and accounting system for the target mixture loaded into glass furnaces located in machine shops of both a single plant and a group of glass plants belonging to one enterprise. A structural scheme is proposed for organizing the collection, processing and storage of data obtained from weight indicators of various models that support their own network frame formats. As an example, a network scheme for the implementation of the designated control and accounting system for target mixtures is demonstrated, applied to two geographically remote glass factories, using a mechanism for building private networks on top of open and public communication channels. The effectiveness of the proposed approaches to the organization of operational control over the volumes of loading of the target mixture into glass furnaces is substantiated, as well as the expediency of using this solution
