20 things to consider when selecting an MES (Manufacturing Execution System)

Done right, an MES (Manufacturing Execution System) implementation can improve accuracy, control and speed on the manufacturing shop floor.

The best MES implementation will also enable supply chain networks and manufacturing to stay synchronised, scalable, and flexible, to cope with fluctuations in demand.

In fact, for many manufacturers, MES implementation can be one of the strongest catalysts for growth.

The right MES can:

  • Support and sustain your business growth strategy
  • Become a foundational technology that enables you to produce the best quality products
  • Improve on-time deliveries
  • Give you complete visibility with metrics and analytics
  • Support the introduction of new product lines, launches and even business models
  • Scale as you grow, to support the next generation of smart technology and industry 4.0.

Worse than that though – the wrong MES can actually lead to mediocre manufacturing performance, poor quality – and ultimately lost customers.

In today’s fast-paced, always-online world, you can’t afford to be mediocre!

The right MES system should power growth in manufacturing, not just act as a band-aid to apply to the symptoms of an inefficiently-run manufacturing production operation.
