Siemens Opcenter

Management of manufacturing operations

SIEMENS OPCENTER, the MES (Manufacturing Execution System) solution is a production management software. A computer system that, by collecting real-time production data from a factory or workshop, is capable of connecting, monitoring, and controlling complex manufacturing systems and data flows at the shop floor level for better productivity and performance.

The main objective of an MES is to optimize activities, from the creation of the manufacturing order to the finished product, improving production efficiency.

Positioned as THE shop floor information system, the MES is the hub of all information produced by the workshop.
