| Manufacturing Execution Systems |
|
The Production Shop has for long been the disconnected entity in integrated global supply chains for leading manufacturing enterprises. Most of the production information in modern facilities is local and, at most, has visibility at the plant level. In this scenario, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) have emerged as a critical link for establishing shop floor and supply chain interoperability.
Patni provides MES solutions and services in industries such as CPG, Food & Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Automotive, Paper & Pulp and the Metal Industry.
Our expertise in providing comprehensive 'Plant Intelligence Solutions' using MES from vendors such as Activplant has enabled our clients in the manufacturing space improve their visibility and control of plant functions at the corporate level.
We recognize that resolving problems and improving performance of plant operations requires a blend of expertise in IT and thorough understanding of manufacturing operations. Accordingly, every service we provide is delivered through a team which has a blend of domain and technical experts.
With proven MES expertise and experience, Patni has enabled many global manufacturers enhance the production, quality and efficiency of their plants.
