A proprietary capability maturity model for assessing existing people, process, and technology capabilities and determining business needs.

Based on years of experience in manufacturing shop floor redesign, we have developed preconfigured tools and templates to help speed your path to value with MES, including: Deloitte can help.ĭMES: Deloitte’s Preconfigured MES SolutionĭMES is a process-led, turnkey approach to MES implementation that focuses on seven key MES capabilities:ĭMES is an important enabler of the product life cycle digital thread, with prebuilt process and data integration connections to other end-to-end digital product development and real-time IoT production monitoring capabilities (figure 1).ĭeloitte combines strong manufacturing operations capabilities, industry knowledge, extensive experience, and relationships with the major MES vendors, as well as many tools and accelerators to jumpstart and enable your MES transformation journey. Digital innovations are emerging, including:īut now, manufacturers need to decide which capabilities to pursue and how to transition from their current operations to more modern capabilities before competitors. Technologies are integrating more easily. Several major players have become leaders in the space. The good news? In the past five years, significant consolidation and growth have occurred in the MES software market. So many choices, so little time (and budget)

The path to integration may be impeded by siloed and decentralized system development.

Executive buy-in may be withheld due to a poorly defined business case for transforming all plants.

Replication across the plant network may be impeded by lack of standardization and willingness to compromise.

Plants may not be able to define a transformation path on their own.The capability maturity of individual plants often varies, sometimes widely.

But each plant’s MES solution is often unique-some are homegrown, while others have been purchased from software providers. Many companies have invested in manufacturing execution systems (MES) over the past 20 years.
