MES · R&D and production
Everything that happens on the shop floor, visible
MES turns plans into tasks at each workstation and feeds progress, materials and quality back to managers in real time. Where a work order is, where it is stuck and who worked on it — no need to ask around.
- End-to-end work order tracking
- Barcode reporting
- Paperless shop floor
Core capabilities
Six capabilities that cover the essentials
Work orders and dispatching
Production plans are broken into work orders and dispatched by operation to teams and workstations, where terminals pick up the tasks.
Reporting and WIP
Scan in, scan out and report output; WIP quantities and locations update in real time.
Electronic work instructions
Drawings and process documents travel with the work order to the workstation, always in the current version — no more paper binders.
In-process inspection
Inspection points at critical operations stop nonconforming parts from moving on, and results are tied to the work order.
Andon calls
One tap raises a call for missing material, machine faults or quality issues; the right person is notified and response time is recorded.
Full traceability
People, machines, materials, methods and environment are recorded at every operation, so any finished product can be traced back to its lots, machines and operators.
How it works
Plan release → Completion, in one continuous flow
- 01
Plan release
Receive ERP orders or APS schedules and create production work orders.
- 02
Execution
Dispatch to workstations, produce to the work instructions and report by scanning.
- 03
Process control
Inspections, exceptions and material consumption are recorded as production happens.
- 04
Completion
Completion data flows back to planning and the warehouse, forming a complete production history.
Results
What changes after go-live
Transparent production
Progress, WIP and output are visible in real time — no waiting for the morning meeting.
Faster response
Exceptions reach the right person immediately, cutting downtime spent waiting.
Reliable data
Data comes from barcode scans and machine collection instead of manual transcription.
Complete traceability
When a customer or regulator asks, a complete record is ready in minutes.
With AI agents
Production data powers every agent
- Work order progress and reporting let the scheduling agent reschedule in real time
- Production history lets the quality agent trace root causes
- Ask for output, WIP and plan attainment in plain language

FAQ
Common questions about MES
What is Manufacturing Execution System (MES)?
Aiiiss MES brings plan release, dispatching, production reporting, WIP tracking, electronic work instructions and full traceability into one system, making shop-floor production transparent and controllable while sharing data with APS, QMS, WMS and equipment management.
Can MES be purchased on its own?
Yes. Manufacturing Execution System (MES) can be purchased and used on its own. It shares master data such as customers, materials and equipment with the other Aiiiss ONE products, so you can add more products later without a new implementation.
Can MES connect to our existing ERP and other systems?
Yes. Aiiiss provides standard APIs and ready-made connectors for ERP systems such as Kingdee, Yonyou and Digiwin, and can integrate with existing systems over HTTP, MQTT and other protocols.
