From theory to practice: digitizing production processes to cut waste, boost efficiency, and improve competitiveness

Lean Production is a production management methodology born in Japan and applied worldwide to eliminate waste, reduce costs, and improve lead times while maintaining high quality standards.
It is based on one key principle: producing more with fewer resources, focusing only on what generates real value for the customer.

With MES by Advinser, lean principles don’t remain theory but become daily practice: a digital system that connects machines, operators, and processes, making every production phase leaner, more controlled, and more efficient.

 

The challenge and the solution

Many manufacturing companies are familiar with Lean Production principles, but often fail to apply them systematically. Why?
Lack of real-time data, outdated tools, manual flow management, and poor traceability.

MES bridges this gap: integrating machines, operators, and data into a single system, enabling continuous improvement that is truly measurable.

 

Key features of MES for Lean Production

  • Real-time data collection: constant monitoring of line performance and OEE indicators.

  • Order and production progress management: elimination of bottlenecks and resource optimization.

  • Full traceability: from plant to finished product, every stage is recorded and available for analysis.

  • Integrated quality control: reduction of waste and non-conformities through instant digital checks.

  • Intuitive dashboards: clear and up-to-date data.

 

Why choose MES

  • Vertical approach: designed for the most complex manufacturing sectors (fashion, furniture, glass, ceramics, plastics, mechanical).

  • Scalability: grows with the company, adapting to both simple processes and complete production ecosystems.

  • Native integration: connects seamlessly with existing ERP, PLM, and factory systems.

  • Fast implementation: quick go-live and training times.

 

Companies that adopted MES achieved:

  • -28% machine downtime,

  • +23% line productivity,

  • +19% waste reduction.

 

Real customer testimonials and case studies demonstrate how MES has made the shift to lean production tangible.
