In today’s manufacturing industry, competitiveness depends on more than having a modern machine park. Without effective production management, costs, delays and unnecessary waste can eat into your margins. direct MES is a complete, modular production solution from AMS AS, built on over 40 years of experience in Norwegian and international manufacturing. It integrates seamlessly with your ERP system, provides real-time insight into your entire operation and scales with your business needs.
Built for modern manufacturing
direct MES connects the entire value chain in your factory – from goods receipt to finished product. It delivers precise requirements planning and advanced production scheduling while giving you complete visibility of stock levels, order status and resource capacity. With real-time data, you can respond quickly to changes. This ensures traceability at every stage, from raw material to finished goods, while avoiding bottlenecks and maximising the use of machines, materials and workforce.
Automation and machine communication
With AMS AS ’s extensive expertise in machine integration, direct MES does more than log production data – it communicates directly with your manufacturing equipment. This enables automated transfer of production orders and precise machine control, with production status continually updated. The result is less manual work, fewer errors and better utilisation of your manufacturing capacity.
Flexible manufacturing management and adaptation
Whether you run discrete manufacturing, batch production or a combination of both, direct MES can be configured precisely to your processes. The system handles advanced production scenarios such as variant handling, kitting and multi-factory operations. The competence matrix ensures each workstation is staffed by operators with the proper training and certification, boosting efficiency, reducing errors and providing a safer production environment.
Manufacturing Execution System in multiple languages
direct MES comes with English as standard and can be extended with an unlimited number of additional languages. If your company operates production sites in several countries, local languages can be added for each plant – while you retain one common system and the same production platform across the organisation.
