| Manufacturing Execution System (MES) |
Our Manufacturing Execution System (MES) executes all manufacturing orders. We receive orders from your host system, and present them to operators electronically, replacing paper batch sheets. Operators are prompted through the manufacturing activities while the system forces them to use the right ingredients in the right amounts. The system is connected to scales and other hardware to ensure that the weight data is 100% accurate. As product is weighed out during manufacturing, it is automatically deducted from inventory. Recording every activity also guarantees 100% traceability.

Features
- Real time consumption and creation of inventory.
- Computer assisted weighing, blending, and packing out of manufacturing orders.
- Provides accurate real time inventory visibility and quality control status to operators.
- Pre-weigh and co-mingle operations are performed using scales that are directly accessible to the software, enhancing speed and reliability.
- Each step of the batching operation is policed by the software in order to ensure that all steps are performed as defined in the process specification.
- MSDS and HMIS information is displayed as required throughout.
- The software ensures that all equipment has been cleaned and sanitized before allowing it to be used.
- Provides an electronic batch sheet that may be customized by the user.
- Paperless system with data collected at the source eliminates time and errors associated with manual data recording and entry
- Increase manufacturing efficiencies by 10%-30%
- Complete lot traceability with container level tracking of source materials.
- Material consumption information is sent back to the host ERP in seconds.
- Ability to interface to ANY host system: Oracle, SAP, Batchmaster, MFG/PRO Data3, etc.
- Designed to meet the stringent requirements of the FDA with 21 CFR Part 11 Compliance
- Designed to work in a “thin client” environment, which lets the application run on portable Pocket PCs or Pen tablets
- Barcoding is used throughout to ensure accuracy
- Maintains an inventory of misblends and automatically recommends their use when possible.
- Integrated in process testing ensures that adjustments are correctly completed, and retains details for review and analysis
- Automatically corrects quantities required based on the purity as required, and determines the amount of filler required.
- Weight tolerances can be set at the ingredient level.
- Gang weighing is supported for increased efficiency.
- Filters ingredients by workstation based on security, size of pour, and other criteria.
- Signatures for operator and checker can be individually configured for each operation.
