Custom MES — Manufacturing Execution System development
Real-time production monitoring, shop-floor data acquisition and live OEE — a manufacturing execution system tailored to your specific production line.
Request a quoteWhat is an MES and why deploy one?
A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is shop-floor software that tracks production in real time: machine states, cycle times, downtime, scrap, operator activity. Typical business outcomes are 10–25% OEE improvement, measurable scrap reduction, and reliable production reports without manual paperwork.
What does a DevTools-built MES include?
- Shop-floor data acquisition — automatic machine data via OPC-UA, Modbus, or direct PLC integration.
- Real-time OEE (availability × performance × quality).
- Production monitoring per shift, line, and product.
- Scrap and downtime categorization with root-cause analysis.
- Work order & batch tracking, PDF / Excel export.
- Integration with your existing ERP.
Why custom MES instead of off-the-shelf?
Every plant is different: different machines, different processes, different KPIs. Off-the-shelf MES is either too narrow (doesn't cover everything) or too expensive (lots of unused modules). A custom build wraps around your real workflow, integrates cleanly with your existing ERP, and measures exactly what matters. Typical rollout is 4–12 weeks, starting with one production line and scaling to the whole plant.
How does a deployment look?
- Assessment — site walk-through, KPIs and integration needs.
- Pilot — working prototype on one line in 2–4 weeks.
- Roll-out — gradual extension across lines/plants.
- Operations — ongoing support and feature work.
