Why is MES considered the ERP of production?

The ERP is the central management tool of the company. However, it is insufficient to ensure production execution.

Indeed, machine data acquisition, process and product traceability (semi-finished and finished goods), quality control, statistical process control, first-level maintenance by operators, and operator skill management are now essential elements to efficiently run manufacturing operations.

The MES is indispensable to extend ERP capabilities into the shop floor, especially with material consumption tracking, time tracking, monitoring of work order status, and inventory movements management.
