MES Implementation: Real-Time Production Tracking for Mid-Size Plants

Thursday, December 10, 2026
6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
The Venetian Resort
How Nevada manufacturers are gaining shop floor visibility with affordable MES solutions.

About This Event

Modern MES platforms offer real-time production tracking, OEE monitoring, and quality management at price points that make sense for a 100-person shop. This session covers what data to capture first, ERP integration, and how to get buy-in from the floor. We walk through two Las Vegas implementations and one spectacular failure. Best for: plant managers, production supervisors, and IT managers at manufacturers with 50-500 employees.
