When do you switch to MES?
As a process-oriented area of a production management system, a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) supports production planning in the company as well as improving transparency. It forms the data interface between the ERP system and production. MES solutions help companies to record, display and utilize all relevant data relating to production and quality.
This not only enables manufacturing processes to be designed more efficiently, but also allows them to be checked in real time. This means that weak points can be rectified as soon as they occur. The primary goals of an MES solution are to optimize cost, time and production efficiency, as well as paperless and transparent production control and documentation of all processes at all times.
Ideally, an MES should have at least all ten elements in accordance with VDI standard 5600 to ensure the best possible performance.
