Ask the Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) Expert: Scheduling Assistance

Asked on Feb 27 2008 1:01:37:000PM | Q | Any information about this MES package called Forcam? Please let me know Mythili Srinivasan, Troy, MI |
| A | Wow. This is a "stump the stars" question. There are literally hundreds of small MES companies and products on the market &mdash many of which seem to hail from Germany and specifically serve the automotive market &mdash and I have to admit that Forcam is not one that I am familiar with. I did take a cursory look at their Web site, as I am sure you did, and my overall impression is that they have located a regional niche in automotive parts production, and my guess (please understand that this is purely a guess) is that they are likely being taken into these accounts by the regional SAP field sales organization. Freudenberg IT (specifically their Adicom software suite) and iTAC are two other companies that provide MES/ track and trace software applications that you should take a look at, by way of comparison. Sorry I can't be of more help with this one, and good luck in your MES travels. |
