Performix brings leading knowledge of manufacturing to the Industry Value Network, gained with its manufacturing execution system (MES). SAP-certified for integration with SAP® applications, the Performix xMES® suite of software applications provide flexible templates for both recipe management and manufacturing work step execution to deliver an out-of-box MES solution.
When deploying an MES, many of today's companies are challenged by functional and component overlap with their current ERP solution or automation systems. This can lead to conflict between components in the MES and existing systems as well as a significant amount of data and work duplication. By using the SAP manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP MII) application for integration with SAP solutions, the Performix xMES suite leverages all modules and master data created in SAP solutions, therefore streamlining and simplifying the shop floor execution of batch manufacturing processes and protecting customer's current investments in infrastructure.
