No matter the size of a manufacturing operation, an MES can contribute to overall productivity and profitability by driving the manufacturing process information. Regulated industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, medical devices, aeronautics and aerospace, defense, and biotechnology particularly benefit because regulated companies must adhere to strict regulations to ensure traceability compliance. They must make sure that appropriate procedures are in place for building compliant products, that these procedures are documented, and that the resulting products can be easily recalled if necessary. Manufacturing execution systems track a huge amount of data, producing real-time insights that can boost production efficiency and save costs. This is where POMS Corporation is creating a change. POMS is committed to improving the effectiveness, competitiveness, and compliance of regulated manufacturers by delivering proven, world-class manufacturing execution system MES solutions that integrate seamlessly with other enterprise applications.
