Opcenter Execution MES key benefits

Optimized sequencing
Opcenter Execution achieves significant cycle time reductions by determining and implementing the most efficient production sequencing. The MES also synchronizes production processes across the supply chain to optimize production execution.

Resource allocation and control
Our MES solutions manage all relevant resources for manufacturing operations. They also manage and track the movement and storage of materials, in-process items and finished products, as well as the transfers between and within work centers. These capabilities improve resource utilization and minimize waste.

Production tracking
Opcenter Execution tracks and traces the status of production and disposition of work, including demonstration and documentation of regulatory and quality requirements. MES functionality enables forward and backward traceability of components and their use within each end product.

Equipment and personnel performance
Our manufacturing execution solutions track resource usage based on elapsed usage time and production quantities, and ensure that production does not outpace maintenance requirements. They also track personnel training and certification requirements and orchestrate work assignments in a way that optimizes labor productivity.

Performance analysis
Opcenter Execution systems provide up-to-the-minute reporting of actual manufacturing operations and compare historical and expected results. Real-time feedback enables rapid identification and resolution of manufacturing issues.
