Digital Manufacturing in 2021: the Business Case for MES - 3 Manufacturing Leaders in a Jargon-Free Discussion

In 2021, many manufacturing organisations still have manufacturing operations management systems that aren't fit for purpose!

From ubiquitous spreadsheets, to purpose-built software that can’t be maintained, various departmental solutions and often, in large organisations, multiple legacy MES systems, the landscape is complex and sometimes quite “messy”. Manufacturing Leaders do not have the systems they need to deliver operational resilience and support growth plans.

How to bring to plant operations the digitisation that will systematise processes, enable management by exception, provide reliable data to drive the process in real time and improve quality and performance?

Join Lighthouse Systems and three guests at different stages of their journey to learn all about how to bring digital transformation to operations, the business case for MES in achieving this, and how to choose the right solution to make it a success.

Key takeaways include:

Digital transformation in manufacturing - what does it mean?
Why MES is essential to the digital transformation of plant operations
Benefits and lessons learned explained by experienced manufacturing leaders who have been there
