Eyelit replaces legacy MES

TORONTO:Eyelit Inc., a manufacturing software provider for visibility, control, and coordination of manufacturing operations for the aerospace & defense, discrete electronics, semiconductor, and photovoltaic (solar) industries, announced that a leading Fortune 100 company has selected Eyelit Manufacturing to replace its legacy WorkStream MES.

The migration to Eyelit’s advanced manufacturing solution will include the following improvements as claimed in a press note: Elimination of paper-based tracking systems and paper travelers; Replacement of more than 30 custom systems by incorporating functionality into the Eyelit MES; Implementation of real-time Eyelit Statistical Process Control; Full integration of MES solution with a scheduling request system; Introduction of improved automated data collection and consolidation of hundreds of Excel spreadsheets used for product management.

“Eyelit has a proven track record of numerous successful PROMIS MES migrations to Eyelit MES. We’ve also completed several MES migrations of homegrown and lesser-known MES systems. This important WorkStream MES migration project further validates Eyelit as the choice for companies looking to modernize their manufacturing IT infrastructure and reduce overall IT costs. Companies may be reluctant to replace legacy MES software in a running factory, but manufacturers put themselves at risk by continuing to run their factories using software and hardware that is approaching, or already is, at the end of its lifecycle,” stated Dan Estrada, Eyelit’s Vice-President of Sales and Marketing.
