Tailored software is a huge advantage in the manufacturing industry. Most packaged software is not ideal for shop floor use. Tailored software is not only easy to implement, it is easy to change, upgrade and is user friendly. By using tailored Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) software you will save time, resources and improve communication. MES can do this by improving scheduling, reducing change overs, tracking inventory, forecasting and many other operations. This will reduce repetitive busy and help employees to be more productive. The right MES software will definitely show a change on a company’s bottom line.

Simply stated, tailored MES software is a smart move. The manufacturing industry began implementing MES to help organize data and visualize statistics. Since then the industry has seen many positive changes in many areas. Productivity has been increased, downtime reduced and equipment life can be extended. Many businesses, no matter what size, look to the accounting department to save money. Most manufacturers have a workable accounting system but shop floor systems are more complicated and therefore more difficult to implement successfully. Implementing tailored MES software can increase profits almost immediately. It can bring a bounty of payback in the form of higher yield, less waste and less repetitive “busy work”

Finding a company that can not only tailor MES software but also implement it in just a few weeks is a very important motivator to most businesses. When looking, make sure to ask “Is the software designed specifically for our needs?”. True tailored software will not contain confusing fields or functionality that you don’t need. Also ask “Is it easy to modify and is it scalable in the event my business grows to multiple locations or changes?” Tuppas Software is a great example of a company that can answer “Yes” to those questions.
