Aptean Shop Floor Control
Boost Productivity and Take Control of Your Shop Floor
Managing a shop floor is complex. From tracking work in process (WIP) to ensuring quality and managing labor, the lack of real-time visibility can stall productivity and invite costly errors. Paper-based processes slow down operations, while manual payroll and incentive tracking drain valuable resources.
That’s where our shop floor control solution comes in. As a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) designed for labor-intensive operations, it gives you real-time insight into every process on the floor—digitizing workflows, managing labor more effectively and enabling data-driven decisions that improve efficiency, quality and profitability.
