The main benefits of a MES

The main benefits of a MES

MES software is production management software that, by collecting a plant’s or shop’s production data in real time, can connect, monitor and control complex manufacturing systems and data flows at shop-floor level, for better productivity and performance.

The main objective of a MES is to optimise activities, from the creation of the manufacturing order to the finished product, and to improve production yield.

What are the main benefits of MES software?

  • Better productivity: this comes in particular from improved OEE and the ability to make decisions in real time, which reduces the unexpected. The MES also helps operational staff organise their work better, giving them active supervision based on reliable, real-time data with the risk of error reduced to a minimum.
  • Scrap management: a MES solution can quickly detect every anomaly on the production lines so that you can correct them quickly and limit the consumption of materials and consumables.
  • Less paper: production, waste and inventory data are recorded in real time in the MES, so no paper is needed and data no longer has to be entered by hand. Without manual intervention, the data-entry error rate in your production shops falls considerably (as does the mental load on the operators who had to do it).
  • An overall view of the plant: since plant equipment can now be connected to the cloud and fitted with IoT sensors, manufacturing managers can stay informed of the state of the shops and see other key measurements by connecting remotely to a digital representation of the plant.
