Cloud or On-Premise? How to Choose the Best MES Deployment Model

Choosing between a cloud-based system and an on-premise solution is one of the most common decisions faced by manufacturing companies considering the implementation of production control systems. Both approaches have their advantages and limitations — they differ in terms of cost, security, deployment speed, and configuration flexibility. This article explains the key differences and shows how the OmniMES system adapts to various business needs, offering both deployment models: OmniCloud (SaaS) and OmniMES On-Premise.

7 Wastes of Muda – How to Understand and Eliminate Waste in Production

Every manufacturing company has activities that do not add value to the product yet consume time, resources, and employee energy. In the book Toyota Production System: Beyond Large-Scale Production (1978), Taiichi Ohno identified seven of the most common types of waste. In Lean Manufacturing philosophy, these activities are called Muda – meaning wastefulness or uselessness (Japanese: muda = useless, unnecessary). Japanese companies, led by Toyota, have been effectively eliminating Muda for decades, achieving high production efficiency and flexibility. Understanding the seven classic wastes of Muda helps identify where productivity may be leaking in your company — and how to fix it.

Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) – what does it mean for Polish production plants and why it is worth implementing an EMS system

The revised Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) – Directive (EU) 2023/1791 – sets out the framework and obligations designed to help the European Union achieve ambitious energy-saving targets. Among other things, the EED aims to reduce final energy consumption in the EU by 11.7% by 2030 compared to reference projections. It replaces the previous Directive 2012/27/EU and entered into force on 10 October 2023. Member States are required to transpose its key provisions into national law – the deadline for transposition was 11 October 2025.

Effective Maintenance: How an MES System Helps Minimize Micro-Downtimes in Production

In modern manufacturing plants, every second of machine operation matters. Even short, seemingly insignificant interruptions – so-called micro-downtimes – can generate substantial losses on a production line. Research (Aberdeen Research) shows that unplanned downtime can cost manufacturing companies from hundreds to even thousands of dollars per minute. This is one of the reasons why more and more enterprises implement MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems). They support maintenance, enable real-time machine performance analysis, and help minimize the negative impact of micro-downtimes.

From Industry 4.0 to 5.0 – The Evolution of Digitalization and Its Impact on Modern Factories

For more than a decade, industrial digitalization has set new directions in manufacturing. The term Industry 4.0 became a symbol of the Fourth Industrial Revolution – the era of automation, robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Today, Industry 5.0 is gaining traction. It does not replace 4.0 but builds on it, adding a new dimension: the integration of humans and technology in a sustainable and responsible way.

Maximize ROI through OEE Optimization and Energy Management in MES/EMS Systems

In the age of Industry 5.0, where energy efficiency becomes a key differentiator, manufacturing enterprises face unprecedented challenges. According to the new EU Directive 2023/1791 on energy efficiency, member states must achieve an average annual energy savings rate of 1.49% between 2024–2030. This means that companies must radically rethink their approach to energy management. A crucial tool in this transformation is the optimization of the OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) index through intelligent energy management in MES-class systems. In both Industry 4.0 and 5.0, OEE plays a key role in ROI planning, reliability, and production stability.
