Web Solutions Advantages of MES Visibility Real-time information made available across the enterprise Plant-floor data transformed in real-time into executive level information Cost Reduction Ability to predict breakdowns through historical maintenance data Reduction in manual data collection methods Virtually paperless information system Flexibility Data can be collected from practically any type of equipment Additional data points can be easily added without any modifications to the software Manufacturing Execution Systems take a variety of forms, ranging from off the shelf products to completely custom solutions to meet any specific needs. MES systems are highly data-centric which means that they are typically centred around a database of some kind - relational or sometimes proprietary. Off the shelf MES modules, while specific to their task (Quality, Efficiency, Performance, Maintenance, etc), are generic in that they need to attempt to satisfy the requirements of every plant. This often means that implementing an off the shelf MES system requires a creative thinking process in order to fit the package into the framework of the customer's Information Systems infrastructure.
