Market Overview
Adaptive MES Can Help Enterprises Optimize Production Activities and Stay Competitive
Companies must gain first-to-market advantage and continuously reevaluate and improve their product offerings to meet ever-changing consumer demands. Manufacturers are relocating their facilities to low-cost regions such as Asia Pacific and trying to partner with peer-group companies at select locations to strategically target specific markets. This makes them liable to comply with global regulatory controls. Hence, they are incorporating manufacturing execution systems (MES) solutions for precision and better accountability.
Moreover, to deliver cost-effective and innovative products, manufacturers need to optimize production activities, which have become difficult due to rapid technological developments. Since speed is vital in adaptive manufacturing, real-time data capture is essential to ensure feedback to operations. Legacy and ERP systems are not the solution to incorporating adaptive manufacturing because they represent isolated cases of automation and cannot support demand-driven manufacturing. There is a need a have a system that does not depend on the IT department and offers high visibility. "An adaptive MES that is likely to help an enterprise achieve its critical management goals by uniformly measuring KPIs and replicating best practices in a uniform manner across all global locations is what is required," says the analyst of this research service.
MES Vendors Work to Provide End-To-End Platform-based Solutions and Integrate with Legacy Systems
MES solutions not only provide a seamless flow of data between the shop floor and the enterprise systems, but also represent a set of functions that optimize plant activity. Considering that most of the legacy software systems are unable to function in large and complex manufacturing environments that involve higher throughput, quality, and efficiency, MES solutions are sought after to provide an interface to integrate the legacy systems, although it is proving to be expensive to the manufacturers.
"As end users look to procure solutions from larger vendors, both the automation and the enterprise resource planning (ERP) vendors are driving down the MES market to sell their entire solution as a package to provide end-to-end integration," explains the analyst. Smaller MES vendors find it difficult to meet the requirements of manufacturers who are exploring service-oriented integrated applications that combine functions such as execution, intelligence, maintenance, quality, tracking, and reporting. They are partnering with smaller niche vendors or larger ERP and automation vendors to fill the gaps within their product portfolio and offer an end-to-end solution to customers.
