MES is an automated integrated system that allows you to efficiently manage production (real-time operational management is carried out). The MES system combines all business processes in production into a single whole. These include:
- planning;
- control;
- documenting.
Operational and effective modeling of all business processes occurring in production is ensured by the automation of production processes. Thanks to the ability to interact with specialized systems for logistics and other external systems, the MEC program allows you to track products, raw materials and components at every stage of their presence in production.
What are the benefits of MES
In the conditions of the modern market, automation of production is the foundation for the development of the industrial sector. The introduction of an integrated system helps to increase labor productivity, improve the quality of products, and the production process itself (each of its stages) becomes safer and more comfortable for employees.
In addition, the automated production control system is characterized by numerous other advantages. These include:
- Reduce production costs, reduce production costs.
- Prompt detection of emergency situations, quick response regarding their elimination.
- Lack of paperwork.
- Ability to organize all resources and processes.
- Compliance with international quality standards.
- Relationship with industrial automation.
Purpose
The effective implementation of the innovative software product Qguar MES will be for enterprises whose scope of activity:
- food and non-food industry;
- chemical, pharmaceutical industry;
- engineering industry, and in particular heavy engineering.
The MEC system is a tool designed for industries where it is necessary to measure as accurately as possible, as well as manage the efficiency of the resource base (machines, personnel, etc.), production costs.
In Ukraine, at the best price, you can order the Qguar MES system from our company Quantum International. We do not offer universal solutions to our clients, but we approach the implementation of each project individually, based on the production features and other individual factors of each customer.
Managing a manufacturing plant, even a small one, in a changing market environment increasingly requires the use of a computer system. Quantum’s answer to this need is MES – Manufacturing Process Management System. The MES program allows you to quickly and efficiently model processes and collect information about their flow. The ability to integrate with external systems (ERP, SCADA, logistics systems) allows you to track products, components and raw materials at every stage of their life cycle in the company – from ordering, through the implementation of production processes, and ending with shipment to the recipient. The collected information about the production process supports the management on the principles of “Lean Manufacturing (Lean Manufacturing)”. The system also supports quality standards such as HACCP, IFS, SIX SIGMA, etc. Using customizable reports gives you a complete picture of what is happening on the production floor, at different levels of detail – from shift foremen to plant managers.
Qguar MES production management system – a comprehensive system for the operational management of a manufacturing enterprise of any scale. The system allows linking all production business processes into a single structure. With Qguar MES, companies are able to plan, optimize, control and document all production processes in real time. The ability to integrate the system with external systems (ERP, SCADA, specialized logistics systems) allows you to track products, components and raw materials at every stage of their life cycle in production – from the formation of an application, through the production of products, ending with delivery to the recipient. The collected information about the production process supports the management of the enterprise based on the principles of “Lean Manufacturing”. Support for the MES program of production management systems of international quality standards gives the manufacturing company additional competitive advantages. The use of detailed reports visually reflects the complete picture of events taking place in the production shop at different levels of detail, from the shift foreman to the plant manager.
Automation of production Qguar MES is a tool for ensuring the efficient operation of production processes of any level of complexity. It is designed for businesses that need to accurately measure costs, equipment and personnel performance. production planning is easier, more efficient, with a minimum of errors. By systematically recording accurate process data, MES enables the implementation of the “Lean Manufacturing” management concept, i.e. to eliminate wastefulness, and at the same time, to minimize production costs. Qguar MES production process control system is indispensable in the work of enterprises using various HACCP, IFS, SIX SIGMA control systems. The MES system constantly accumulates information about production processes, making it available for further analytics, according to pre-established official rights, while simplifying the decision-making process for management personnel, and provides production workers with a sense of security through clear personalization when performing individual operations.
Qguar MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is a production management software that allows you to quickly and efficiently implement most of the processes occurring in the enterprise.

- possibility of timely response in emergency situations
- elimination of paperwork
- organizing processes and resources
- integration with external systems
- the ability to easily and quickly model business processes
- modern, user-friendly user interface
Differences between MES and ERP
The main difference between mes production management systems and ERP is that MES systems, operating only with production information, make it possible to adjust or completely recalculate the production schedule during the work shift as many times as necessary for efficient operation. ERP is focused on accounting, the system optimizes the work of the financial and legal departments. For absolutely any production, a standard software package is used. In turn, MES operates with unique parameters that are embedded in the technological process of a given enterprise. Each area has its own variants of MES-systems. Projects for the implementation of MES production management systems bring a real, tangible economic effect for the company as a whole.
The disadvantages of mes production management systems can manifest themselves if the implementation was not preceded by competent thorough preparation. Before implementation, it is extremely important to analyze all factors, work harmoniously with the Customer’s team, implement the system, taking into account all the nuances. Therefore, we guarantee round-the-clock support and make sure to train the company’s personnel – then the implementation and operation of the system will bring profit to the company.

Qguar MES is a smart tool designed for manufacturing enterprises where it is necessary to accurately measure and manage production costs and the efficiency of resources (machines, employees, etc.). Through the collection of information about all production processes, MES helps to implement the concept of “Lean Manufacturing” management, i.e. eliminate wastefulness and minimize probable costs. Qguar system is indispensable in the work of enterprises using various control systems: HACCP, IFS, SIXSIGMA, etc. The MES system collects and saves information about the processes taking place in production, making it available for processing and analysis in accordance with pre-established rights. As a result, the process of making objective and balanced decisions is simplified for the manager, and the production employee receives a clear personalized action plan for performing individual operations.
