Statements

LinkedIn, Mark Colquhoun:
- “MES systems have one or a combination of the following characteristics:
  1. They send operations to a control system to be executed.
  2. They read data from the control system as feedback on the state of an operation.
  3. They read information from a control system for further analysis by the business.
- MES systems often also integrate with enterprise business systems however this is an optional characteristic compared to those listed above”.
Bianca Schelten:
- “MES is a belief”.
- “Suppose the MES vendor goes bankrupt, or stops developing and supporting the product: every plant will feel the blow. So be shure you come to an understanding with the vendor on source code availabilty for this kind of emergency. If you have the source code, you can adapt and expand the MES yourself as needed”.
“By the implementation of a MES, your Excel and Access hell is past ”.
“MES = production management + quality management”, “MES = production intelligence”, “MES = integrated industry”, “MES = produktionsnahe Software”.
“MES is the bse for process optimization”.
Book Jens Reimann, Michael Schäfer, Christoph Schmidtbauer, Peter Schoner: "MES: Anforderungen, Architektur und Design mit Java, Spring & Co", page 74: “A MES must support all action which help to reduce costs”.
