Medical device manufacturing

When it comes to deploying an MES across multiple manufacturing facilities, platform architecture is critical. It will impact the ease of implementation and maintenance, and the ability to continuously improve the platform’s applications to ensure the latest technologies and methodologies can be embraced and that manufacturers have greater agility.

MedTech companies are struggling like most industries due to inflationary trends, however, the problem is further amplified for companies with a predominantly commoditized product portfolio.

Leaders in an organization need to take the initiative when it comes to digital transformation and MES selection.

MES template helps to standardize processes and embrace best practices where applicable, while still accommodating local customization for the unique needs of each factory.

This article addresses the cost of quality in the industry and the role played by the MES platform in helping reduce these costs.

Digitisation makes operations more efficient, reduce errors and frees up time. Going paperless is the way forward and the MES you choose may prove to be a game-changer.

Center of Excellence (CoE) carries out fundamental roles in a global MES implementation, enabling the coordination and alignment between MES implementations at all sites.

Predictive quality can prevent possible defects and can help predict recalls by combining AI, advanced analytics, design, production, supply-chain, and field data.

From preparation, through creation of template and deployment across sites, to final handover and ongoing support – to ensure a smooth project, each stage needs to be carefully planned.
