Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) software is used to supervise and track work on a plant floor. Our MES Modules offer vertical software solutions built on the power of the Ignition platform. It provides functions such as resource management, detailed scheduling, dispatching, production analysis and downtime management, product tracking and genealogy, monitoring recipes, quality management, variance tracking, real-time predictive analysis, and more. MES is the layer between SCADA and ERP systems.
This comprehensive resource gives a broad overview of our MES Software, the basic instructions about its configuration, along with information on design and coding. It is intended for developers and those looking for detailed technical information. Every effort has been made to ensure that this document is an accurate representation of the functionality of MES. The deployment instructions included can help you get started with MES development as soon as you download. All of the MES modules are built on the Ignition platform.
