MES for Manufacturing

MES for Manufacturing is a TEKADA solution.

It focuses on MES for Manufacturing focused on how to control work-order execution, WIP movement, material consumption, quality events, genealogy, and shop-floor evidence.

Critical data includes Item and revision, BOM and routing, Work order, Material lot or serial..

Final scope depends on processes, data, users, integrations, security, and target outcomes.

It is relevant for operations, IT, engineering, quality, supply-chain, and management teams in Manufacturing that need traceable transaction control and decision visibility. Discovery confirms the problem, priorities, and implementation boundaries before development starts.

Yes. Integration can use APIs, databases, files, webhooks, middleware, barcode devices, or other available and authorised interfaces.

No. TEKADA recommends phased implementation starting with a high-value workflow or bottleneck, then expanding after data and adoption are stable.

Pricing and timeline depend on scope, users, modules, integrations, migration, devices, security, training, and support requirements. An estimate follows discovery.

Success criteria are defined before delivery, such as lead time, data accuracy, trace speed, manual effort, response time, adoption, or other relevant operational KPIs.

In Manufacturing, three operational risks to control are: Plan changes do not reach execution quickly; Material status differs between system and floor; and Quality holds are tracked outside the transaction flow.

The recommended scope prioritises the highest-value constraint first.

Typical examples include MES across Demand and production planning, MES across Store and line-side supply, MES across Quality and exception handling, Management review for Schedule attainment, Material shortage response time.

The final use cases are validated against actual users and transactions.

Expected benefits include Real-time WIP state, Transaction-level production history, Control release only approved master data, Verify KPIs such as Schedule attainment, Material shortage response time. Baselines and owners are agreed before implementation.

The solution can be adapted for electronics, automotive, medical devices, plastics, food and beverage, warehouses, distribution, and other process-driven operations.

A generic tool is faster when the process already fits it. TEKADA adds value when workflows, controls, integrations, devices, or reporting require a closer operational fit.

Implementation can include discovery, process mapping, UX, configuration, development, integration, migration, testing, training, rollout, documentation, and support.

Support scope can include incident handling, monitoring, user assistance, data correction controls, minor enhancements, releases, and continuous-improvement reviews.

Security is designed around role-based access, least privilege, authentication, audit logs, backup, environment controls, and the customer’s infrastructure requirements.

Share the current process, main bottleneck, users, transaction volume, existing systems, desired integrations, constraints, and the outcome you want to measure.

Priority controls include Work-order release and route, WIP move and station status, Material issue and consumption, Release only approved master data, Record who moved or changed material.

Data that should remain traceable includes Item and revision, BOM and routing, Work order, Material lot or serial, Quality status.

Start with one product family from material receipt through work-order completion, with clear baseline data for shortage, WIP, quality, and output. Recommended baseline measures include Schedule attainment, Material shortage response time, First-pass yield.
