What was the
initial situation?

Borges was looking for an MES system that would integrate seamlessly with its existing ERP, monitor production lines in real time, and reduce paper-based processes. At the same time, the goal was to minimize manual data entry and human error, as well as to reliably monitor overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in order to make more informed decisions.

Why the decision
Böhme & Weihs?

After evaluating various MES solutions, Borges chose Böhme & Weihs MES because of the company’s many years of experience, its skilled project team, and its ability to meet the company’s long-term needs. The solution’s high level of flexibility and the close collaboration throughout the project were also key factors in the decision.

How can success
be measured?

With Böhme & Weihs MES, Borges now has detailed, real-time monitoring of its entire production process. The automatic transfer of production data into the ERP system reduces errors, improves data quality, and enables reliable OEE monitoring. At the same time, paperless processes have been established, traceability has been improved, and quality management and audit processes have been made significantly more efficient.
