The solution is fully integrated with the time tracking system direct 24, which provides up-to-date information on working hours, shift schedules, holidays and absences. This makes it easy to assign workers based on availability and competence. The system suggests staffing based on the competence matrix and production plans, giving planners a solid foundation for decision-making.

Optimal resource use with the competence matrix

The competence matrix in direct MES provides a full overview of employee qualifications, certificates and product-specific training, enabling you to assign personnel correctly every time. This leads to higher quality and fewer errors in production.
