Connects planning and shop floor in real time. Full control of
production, quality, traceability and industrial data with QPlant MES.
A MES is a software system that connects and coordinates the execution of operations on the manufacturing shop floor in real time, between the planning level (ERP) and the control level (PLCs/Automation).
Captura y procesa datos de planta en el momento en que ocurren.
Conecta el plan (ERP) con la realidad (PLC/máquinas). Es el “cerebro” de la planta.
Gestiona órdenes, calidad, trazabilidad, mantenimiento y almacén integrados.
Genera la “visión operativa” sobre la que tomar decisiones objetivas.
Your performance data is calculated at the end of the shift or with Excel, not in real time.
Inspections are not integrated with production and audits are a huge effort.
The production reality does not update the ERP until hours or days later.
If there is a quality alert, you need days to identify the affected batches.
Stoppages are not analyzed systematically
Without reliable real-time data, decisions are made based on "what seems to be happening".
If you identify 2 or more of these signs, your plant is ready for a MES. QPlant can be in production in 8-12 weeks.
Captures actual execution, calculates OEE and records production, rejects, waste and stoppages.
Controls, inspections, SPC and non-conformities integrated into the process, with evidence for auditing.
Batch-to-batch traceability backwards and forwards, ready for audit and recall.
CMMS connected to production: work orders, preventive, predictive and KPIs.
Locations, quality statuses, FEFO/FIFO, picking and stock in real time.
Dashboards for OEE, quality, waste and performance, with loss analysis and AI.
Finite-capacity planning with scenario simulation and changeover optimization.
Presence, shifts, access control and time allocation, connected to shop floor operations.
The levels of industrial automation. The MES/MOM acts as the critical layer that connects planning and shop floor reality.
The MES/MOM is the critical layer that connects planning and shop floor reality

Execution: Production, Quality, Maintenance, Warehouse, Traceability
Real-time process supervision and control
Programmable logic control of machines and lines
Physical instrumentation: sensors, motors, valves
ERP and MES do not compete, they complement each other. The ERP defines the «what and when». The MES manages the «how, with what performance and quality».
According to the ISA-95/IEC 62264 standard, a MES covers the following functional areas of manufacturing
Execution and tracking of manufacturing orders.
Availability, Performance and Quality by line and shift.
Inspections, SPC, Non-Conformities and audits
Stock, locations, movements and FEFO.
Batch to batch end-to-end. Documented recall.
Shifts, activities, SMED and operator productivity.
