Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
Implementation of MES for improved plant efficiency
Coordinate and Synchronize People, Processes, Equipment, Tooling and Materials on a Global Scale with an Enterprise Manufacturing Execution System
Manufacturing Execution System (MES) are IT enabled systems that provide solutions for improving and optimizing the manufacturing process to the production floor engineers and managers. MES provides solution as to how the current conditions of the shop floor be altered to generate greater output at minimal cost. MES provides for the middle layer between the ERP system and the process control system.

Benefits of Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
- Manufacturing execution solution that provides management the visibility into live production information.
- Manufacturing provides real-time execution information to plant personnel for managing critical manufacturing variables such as yield, throughput, order status, and machine status.
- Manufacturing makes this live production information available, allowing it to be freely shared among manufacturing, enterprise planning and logistics, product management, partners, and customers.
- Manufacturing has the ability to record and compile information relating to the Resources themselves. This information includes availability, data collection, and setup instructions.
- This level of data provides a basis for determining utilization and equipment efficiencies.
- The term Maintenance refers to adjustments, calibrations, change of parts/ consumables, repairs, preventive maintenance, and similar activities carried out on designated resources/machines/ equipment’s.
- Achieve paperless shop floor
- Improve product quality
- Reduce scrap and waste
- Get rid of just-in-case inventory
- Minimize lead time
- Reduce “fire drill costs”
- Optimize shop floor activities in real time
- Maximize asset utilization and reduce machine downtimes
- Make more informed decisions about production
- Improve throughput
- Synchronize production processes in plant and/or across global enterprise
