Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform overview

What is Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform?

Built around the pillars of Smart Manufacturing, Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform connects, automates, tracks, and analyzes your operations.

Product highlights:

- Enterprise resource planning (ERP): Connect your people, suppliers, and customers to a single source of truth. Automate workflows and create a digital paper trail for reference and continuous improvement. Track all physical and digital transactions for greater accuracy and traceability. Analyze real-time trends over time and uncover rich, contextual insights.

- Manufacturing execution system (MES): Connect to operations with a platform designed to support the speed, volume, and complexity of manufacturing transactions. Automate production transactions and manual tasks to ensure greater accuracy and free up workers’ time for higher-value activities. Track materials effectively throughout the entire journey, from receipt to shipment, including WIP to deliver a real-time, granular view of the business. Analyze data collected at each manufacturing moment in the context of your enterprise-wide goals and metrics.

- Analytics and industrial internet of things (IIoT): Connect shop floor performance data to maximize production and operational visibility. Automate alerts sent to personnel who can effectively react to behavioral data that’s outside of the norm. Track equipment performance trends over time to predict downtime for proactive planning. Analyze trends and compare operational data against other KPIs to discover new opportunities for improvement.

- Supply chain planning: Connect your business and remove data silos with cloud-based planning to unite people, processes, and supply chains. Automate and remove the guesswork from planning with system-calculated recommendations for order requirements, safety stock, and lead times. Track data, material usage, and related financial transactions to optimize your supply chain. Analyze and evaluate what matters most to drive informed inventory decision-making.
