MESbook is a management tool for Industry 4.0 that measures, controls, communicates, learns and predicts in real time what happens in a factory minute by minute, identifying all inefficiencies related to costs, quality and productivity in order to act on them.
MESbook is the first cyber-physical system that manages factory productivity, costs, and quality in real time. Using data from machines, people, products, quality controls, costs, and any other variable significant to the factory, the system analyzes what is happening and communicates it to operators and middle management in real time. Simultaneously, it indicates to the plant manager where losses are occurring, their origin, and their monetary value, enabling them to take action by prioritizing those generating the greatest losses.
“These features –comments Diego Saéz de Eguílaz, Founding Partner of Mesbook– allow for spectacular savings, with a direct impact on the company's profit and loss statement of up to 5% of direct costs, equivalent to 60 to 70% of revenue, meaning it can improve its gross profit by up to 40%.”.
MESbook is the first system that analyzes information in real time and reports it to the organization to maximize productivity, minimize costs, and ensure quality. Furthermore, it simplifies all administrative tasks on the factory floor through automatic data communication, capture, and processing, eliminating paper. MESbook is geared towards the digital transformation of traditional industrial management, paving the way for Industry 4.0 and smart factories.
MESbook connects people, machines, systems, and products in real time and performs online analysis, communication, prediction, and learning. The tool is a significant evolution of traditional MES (Manufacturing Execution System) systems, geared towards large companies as well as small businesses with a turnover starting at five million euros.
MESbook acts as a brain, a virtual factory manager, “which integrates –explains César Moro González, Business Development Director for Industry at Tecnocom– all the data from the production, quality, human resources and costs sections, converts them into information and translates them into the best unit of measurement for a factory, the euro.”
One of the basic principles of Industry 4.0 is to create smart networks throughout the value chain so that each link can be controlled autonomously. The implementation of Industry 4.0 is projected to require an investment of €140 billion by 2020. By that date, four out of five companies will be fully digitized.
MESbook can be implemented in just a few weeks and includes modules for Production, Productivity, Costs, Quality, HR, CMMS… all interconnected and in real time. With a pay-per-use pricing model, MESbook is a product of the future. Not only technologically, but it's also designed to support our clients in their Digital Transformation.
According to Diego Saéz Eguilaz, “the alliance with Tecnocom is a commitment to the present, but above all, to the future. The world of data in general, and Industry 4.0 in particular, in which we are pioneers in Spain, will have an even greater impact, both in our society and in our factories. Tecnocom's technological strength, combined with MESbook and the industrial know-how of its team, allows us to offer the tools that industry needs right now to maximize its efficiency and competitiveness and, in the medium to long term, to implement Big Data and Machine Learning systems that will open up a world of possibilities for factories.”.
For his part, César Moro comments that this alliance “will allow us to offer an additional value proposition to our manufacturing clients. The cost improvements and greater quality and personnel control provided by the solution offer a clear management improvement for production managers and simplify management tasks related to plant operations. It is the new Industry 4.0 revolution put into practice.”
