What is Epicor Advanced MES?

Epicor Advanced MES helps manufacturers improve production performance through real-time monitoring of plant operations, equipment, and manufacturing processes. Designed for plastic molders, repetitive manufacturers, and assembly operations involving multiple machines, the solution provides the visibility needed to better understand and manage shop floor performance. With access to real-time production and machine information, manufacturers can identify resource constraints, uncover additional capacity, track downtime, and reduce scrap and material waste. Advanced MES supports operational improvements by providing timely information on production status and equipment performance. The solution includes real-time scheduling, process monitoring, production visibility, and performance reporting capabilities. Users can review operational metrics and production details to support informed decision-making, while maintenance teams can access machine condition information to help plan preventive maintenance activities. Advanced MES also integrates with ERP, accounting, manufacturing estimating, and other business systems to help connect production activities with broader manufacturing operations.

What is Compass & HQ?

Our passion for gathering the right kind of data propels us onward. Our goal is to provide ethical manufacturers around the globe with the essential tools to collect, analyze, and uncover vital insights that boost their competitive edge. Scout Systems originated from the need to capture data from one of the most challenging areas within any manufacturing environment—operator behavior. In October 2014, we began developing the foundational designs for what would later evolve into the modern Tracker prototypes, specifically addressing the manufacturing industry's demand for a singular unit capable of interpreting virtually any signal type. This breakthrough facilitated the gathering of operator-related actions through a wide variety of sensor options, enhancing operational understanding. Additionally, we recognized that the necessity extended beyond mere hardware for signal collection; there was also a considerable demand for a cloud-based application that would enable management to efficiently analyze the resulting data. Consequently, Scout Systems developed a comprehensive suite of web applications designed to integrate smoothly with the hardware, ensuring that manufacturers can access the tools they require effortlessly. This integrated strategy reinforces our dedication to not only satisfying but surpassing the evolving data demands of the industry while fostering a culture of continuous improvement and innovation.
