Businesses rely heavily on Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to streamline operations and manage resources effectively. ERP systems serve as a central hub, integrating the benefits of a unified business management platform with a unified database for information storage. However, the true value of an ERP system lies in its ability to provide actionable intelligence.
Project teams often enter into technology selection and implementation as the first steps in realizing true ERP business transformation.
Many of the teams we work with ask us how to select an MES system.We’ve worked with scores of manufacturing companies that seek to gain a competitive advantage through the intelligent use of data.
We read with interest an article entitled “The latest technology isn’t enough – you need the business model to go with it” published by the World Economic Forum.
Project teams often ask us: what is MES?
Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) have been defined as enterprise technology applications that manage, monitor and synchronize the execution of real-time, physical processes involved in manufacturing finished goods.
From our 25 years of experience as an ERP consulting firm, we know full well that an integrated ERP system is what manufacturers and distributors need to maintain a competitive edge and reduce costs in the 21st century.
