The Power of ERP and MES Integration in Manufacturing Businesses
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems contain inventory and customer demand information and manufacturing execution systems (MES) control and report on manufacturing.
Integrating ERP and MES helps increase operational efficiency and allows manufacturing businesses become more responsive to changing demands. It could help increase overall equipment efficiency (OEE), reduce cycle time and provide management with greater visibility for more accurate decision making.
MES software AspectPL easily integrates with most ERP’s.

Complicated scenarios such as large multi level BOMs, product dependencies, alternative routings, family and multiple classes of products are easily handled once setup.
