Overview
Computer systems have become an integral part of most companies. The newest of these is Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), a technology that provides on-line application software that companies rely on to manage their manufacturing processes. Applying Manufacturing Execution Systems is the book for everyone who has the responsibility of improving their company's manufacturing results. It shows how the current conditions on the plant floor can be optimized to improve production output using an integrated MES.
Applying Manufacturing Execution Systems shows how MES benefits all types of manufacturing from discrete item production to process flow production. The concepts discussed are applicable in all production facilities where a number of variables, whether simple or complex, need to be considered in order to optimize production by effectively using the available resources of people, inventory, and equipment. The book emphasizes the application of MES in the real world of manufacturing that includes:

Explains manufacturing execution systems, which are similar to, but improved on, the computer-integrated manufacturing that proved so disappointing in the 1980s. Rather than custom designing software programs on a contract-by-contract basis, the approach relies much more on standard and reusable application software, which cuts costs and increases reliability. The treatment supports all types of manufacturing, from discrete-item to process-flow production, and emphasizes the integration of systems and variables rather than the technology.
