What really matters on the factory floor.

Conected worker · EAM · MES

MES

The digital layer between your ERP and the floor.

A Manufacturing Execution System runs your shop floor. It takes the production plan from your ERP, breaks it into work orders, captures everything that happens on the line, and feeds the result back. Done well, it removes paper from the floor, gives every operator a clear next step, and gives management a live view of what is actually happening.

Most MES projects fail in one of two ways. Either the system is too rigid, built around a generic template that does not fit your process, requiring 18 months of customisation before it goes live. Or it is too custom, a from-scratch build that takes years and costs millions, and still ends up unused because operators will not adopt it.

Factorise is built differently. Composable from day one, operator-first by design, and live on the floor in weeks instead of years. You start with one suite, prove value, and add the next. The system grows with you without breaking what is already there.

Connected Worker

Operators with the right information, in the right place, at the right moment.

A connected worker is an operator or technician who has live access to the information they need. Work instructions, machine data, asset history, quality requirements, safety procedures, all available directly atthe machine on a mobile device or workstation. No more walking back to a desk, calling a supervisor, or working from a printout that is two months out of date.

Connected worker is not just about apps on tablets. It is about closing the loop between what happens on the floor and the systems that run the business. When an operator finishes a step, the system knows. When a quality check fails, the right team gets notified. When a permit-to-work needs approval, it happens in the same flow as the maintenance job.

Factorise is built around this principle. Every suite, every module, every screen is designed for the people who do the work, not for back-office users. Operators get clear next steps. Technicians get full context. Supervisors get real-time visibility. And it all sits on one platform, connected to the systems your business already runs on.

EAM

The right work, on the right asset, at the right moment.

Enterprise Asset Management is the discipline of keeping your physical assets running. Machines, lines, tools, infrastructure across their full lifecycle. From commissioning to retirement, every asset has a history of preventive work, breakdowns, repairs, parts replaced, and certifications maintained. Done well, EAM moves you from reactive firefighting to a structured rhythm where every technician knows what to do next, and why.

Most EAM systems sit in the back office. SAP PM, Maximo, and Ultimo do a great job of recording maintenance work after it happens, but they were never built for the technician at the machine. The result is the same in plant after plant. A job gets assigned without context, the technician walks to the machine, finds the wrong parts, has to look up the history, calls a colleague who used to fix it, and starts over. Time wasted, work duplicated, breakdowns that could have been prevented.

Factorise brings EAM to the floor and tells the technician what to do. We sit on top of your existing CMMS or replace it, pull asset and work order data from SAP PM where you already have it, and present it in a mobile, operator-first interface. Sensor data triggers preventive jobs before something breaks. Work orders arrive with the right instructions, parts, and skill checks already attached. Recurring issues feed into structured root cause analysis so they stop coming back. Every technician gets one screen per machine, with history, schedule, parts, IoT data, documentation, and qualifications, so the next right action is always one tap away.
