In its simplest form, MOPECS links business systems like SAP with real-time operational plant controls systems like PLCs, DCS and SCADA Systems. With MOPECS the manufacturing process becomes information driven—this information can be used to trigger actions or "operations” activities and rules. Typically our customers have a number of standalone, legacy systems that do bits and pieces of MOPECS. These customers want to move toward an 'integrated' solution based on a single technology.
TSI has integrated manufacturing systems across industries and technical platforms. Typical functions include:
- Detailed Production Scheduling
- Product and Process Planning and Scheduling
- Performance Monitoring (Downtime, OEE, etc.)
- Track and Trace/Genealogy
- Statistical Process Control
- Statistical Quality and Defect Tracking and Management
- Document Management and Paperless Work Instructions
- Electronic Batch Records
- Data collection and Reporting
- Preventive Maintenance
- Inventory and Warehouse Management
- Order Planning and Tacking
What makes us different in the MES integration space is our knowledge and experience with the Controls layer. Because TSI has both Controls and MOPECS expertise, we bring the breadth of skills required to successfully integrate MES into the manufacturing operation.
