A Better Method of Materials Management

A Manufacturing Execution System That Helps Guide Your Material Handlers

In the paper-based world where there is one material handler per line, the worker may sometimes find him or herself without the material needed to do the job, and therefore not productive. With the HighJump manufacturing execution system (MES), after the shop floor production schedule has been dispatched, the system helps material handlers to efficiently deliver essential components to work cells. Workers simply request the material replenishments as he or she deems necessary, and those requests are quickly transferred to the material handling work queue and delivered to the work cell, without disrupting workflow.
