MES System is a manufacturing efficiency and execution platform that allows for the collection of data from the machines, or entire production line, analysing y displaying them in a user-friendly manner. MES software is implemented to make operators’ jobs more predictable and help managers undertake more insightful decisions for faster and better production.
The difference between Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems lies in their core functionalities, focus areas, and operational scope within an organization. While both systems are pivotal in modern business management and aim to increase efficiency and streamline operations, they serve distinct roles within an enterprise.

The software can lead to the identification of more than 200 processes from the shop floor to the warehouse to get rid of or to simplify, e.g. quality documentation forms with redundant information. Step by step, combining small changes can add up to considerable improvement potential. Properly adresssed issues can lead to time savings reduction ranging from 10 minutes up to 2 hours. Not only it helps to reduce the burden for employees in production but also for those surrounding work areas involved in cross-divisional processes.
OEE & OTIF increase
✔️ predicted date time of last item in production/sales order
✔️ less and faster changeovers
✔️ faster execution of production tasks
Less defects
✔️ faster defects recognition and rework management
✔️ SPC and condition-based monitoring
✔️ periodical quality plans
Trazabilidad
✔️ BOM validation (item check, if QC release)
✔️ tools life cycle monitoring
✔️ up-stream and down-stream

The price of a professional MES system depends on the selected list of functionalities, integration with machines and required equipment (i.e. printers, scanners and computers). The total cost will depend on the company’s needs and the number of machines that need to be connected to achieve business results. The MES system is unlimited, modular and scalable, and is not tied to a specific number of users or devices, and can therefore be customized to meet the needs of any company.
