A method and system for dynamically deploying a module of a manufacturing operations management application across a plurality of layers. A MOM application has a plurality of modules organized in a hierarchical architecture, wherein each module is independently deployable in at least two layers of the plurality of layers; for each module and for each layer wherein the module is deployable, defining a set of production parameters relevant for recommending a layer for module deployment; defining for each module a layer-deploying function, having as input variables values of the production parameter sets for the module and having as output variable a recommended layer wherein the module is to be deployed; and, upon request, for a specific module and for a specific time-point, calculating the recommended deploying layer with the layer-deploying function by using values of the input variables at the requested specific time-point.
