The problem

Off-the-shelf MES products assume a generic factory. A real plant has complex inputs, strict lot discipline, and steps that don't match the demo — so operators ended up re-keying production into the ERP after the fact, and the system always lagged reality.

Our approach

We built station-level apps that mirror each step of production, so operators scan and tap their way through a run while the ERP updates in real time — no separate data-entry chore at the end of a shift.

What we built

Purpose-built station apps

Each workstation gets a screen designed around what happens there, instead of a generic ERP form nobody on the floor wants to touch.

Label & print services

A print-worker service generates the right labels tied to work orders and lots, so what comes off the line is identified correctly and automatically.

ERP in lock-step

Production is captured at the source and flows into the ERP without re-entry, so inventory and status are current, not reconstructed.

The outcome

The floor and the system finally agree. Production is recorded as it happens, the after-the-fact data entry is gone, and everyone is looking at the same live picture.

Client and implementation specifics are kept confidential — this describes the shape of the work, not a named engagement.
