Manufacturing Execution System
(SAP ME)

MES (manufacturing execution system) is the comprehensive system that controls all the activities occurring on the shop floor. It begins with all the various orders from customers, the MRP system, the master schedule, and other planning sources; and then builds the products in the most effective, low cost, expedient, and high- quality way possible. A comparative example occurs in the construction business where the construction team (MES) builds a tower from the architectural plans (inputs from MRP, Master schedule, etc.)

SAP Manufacturing Execution is an application for integrated manufacturing operations. It provides a single point of operation and control for manufacturers to:

  • Manage and control manufacturing and shop floor operations.
  • Collect, store and share manufacturing data that determines how a product is built.
  • Collect information required for traceability, manage defects, and implement corrective actions to prevent recurrence of failure.
  • Gain complete component and material-level visibility for single and global operations.
