Leapfactor MES

What is Leapfactor MES? Leapfactor MES is a Manufacturing Execution System designed specifically for factories in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. It bridges the gap between shop floor machines and management decision-making by connecting directly to PLCs, sensors, and IoT devices on the production line - delivering real-time production data, OEE monitoring, downtime tracking, and material traceability without manual input. Unlike ERP-based manufacturing modules that rely on manual data entry, Leapfactor MES captures data automatically from the machine level. Encoders, counters, and PLCs feed production output, cycle times, and equipment status directly into the system. This means operators, supervisors, and plant managers see live production performance - not yesterday's spreadsheet. Who uses Leapfactor MES? Leapfactor MES serves mid-market to enterprise manufacturers (50 to 1,000+ employees) across industries including steel and metals, automotive components, FMCG, textiles, and food & beverage. It is purpose-built for factories that already have an ERP system (SAP, Oracle, Odoo, or others) but lack visibility into what actually happens on the shop floor between order release and finished goods. Typical users include Plant Managers tracking OEE and downtime, Continuous Improvement teams analyzing production efficiency, Operations Directors managing multi-site performance, and Owners seeking real-time business intelligence from their production assets. What makes Leapfactor MES different? Leapfactor MES stands apart in three key areas. First, native PLC and IoT integration: the engineering team installs and configures hardware connections directly on the production line - sensors, encoders, HMI panels - not just software. This is an engineering capability, not a software feature, and it cannot be replicated by ERP vendors adding a manufacturing module. Second, it integrates with existing ERP systems rather than replacing them. Factories running SAP, Oracle, or Odoo can layer Leapfactor MES on top to gain shop floor visibility without disrupting their current workflows. Third, Leapfactor provides local implementation support with an engineering team based in Bandung, Indonesia, that physically visits the factory floor. Implementations begin with a structured Proof of Concept on a live production line, so customers see measurable results before committing to a full rollout. Proven results Leapfactor MES has been deployed in production environments since 2018. One long-term client, a multi-site steel manufacturer, achieved 99% production yield (1% scrap), eliminated 120 minutes of daily manual document distribution, digitized 12,000 monthly work orders across all plants, and improved operational efficiency by 25% - results sustained over eight years of continuous use. Other clients include manufacturers in automotive (Astra group), food & beverage, building materials, and cold chain industries, with over 30 factory deployments across Indonesia. Leapfactor MES is built and supported by PT Lattice Teknologi Mandiri, headquartered in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia.

LiveTracking

LiveTracking is a cloud-based manufacturing execution and real-time production monitoring platform designed for food and beverage manufacturers that need operational visibility, production analytics, and shop floor performance tracking. The software is used by plant operations teams, production managers, continuous improvement leaders, and manufacturing analysts to monitor Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), downtime, waste & rework, line speed, and production efficiency across manufacturing environments. The platform is designed to replace manual production tracking methods such as spreadsheets, whiteboards, and delayed reporting workflows with automated real-time data collection and centralized operational dashboards. LiveTracking captures production data directly from manufacturing equipment and sensors, allowing teams to monitor operational performance as events occur rather than relying on end-of-shift or historical reporting. LiveTracking is primarily used in food and beverage production facilities where manufacturers need visibility into downtime events, production bottlenecks, waste generation, and line performance. The software supports rapid deployment models and is intended for environments where implementation speed and operator adoption are operational priorities. The system is accessible through desktop and mobile environments, including iOS and Android applications, enabling plant personnel and managers to review production data remotely or directly from the production floor. The software supports operational monitoring workflows related to continuous improvement initiatives, production optimization, and manufacturing reporting. Production data can be viewed historically or in real time across multiple production lines or facilities. The platform also supports integration and reporting workflows used by manufacturing analytics and operations management teams. Core capabilities commonly associated with LiveTracking include: - Real-time production monitoring for manufacturing lines, machines, and plant operations OEE tracking, downtime monitoring, giveaway monitoring, and production performance reporting - Automated production data collection designed to reduce manual entry and reporting errors - Mobile and cloud accessibility for production visibility across facilities and remote teams - Operational analytics used to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, waste events, and production delays - Dashboards and reporting tools for plant managers, operations teams, and continuous improvement initiatives - Production monitoring workflows tailored for food and beverage manufacturing environments - Integration support for manufacturing reporting, historical analysis, and operational data review LiveTracking is typically evaluated by manufacturers seeking production visibility, faster operational decision-making, manufacturing analytics, and digitized shop floor monitoring without implementing a larger enterprise MES or ERP platform.

Mannin systems

Mannin Systems is production software for small manufacturers who have outgrown the spreadsheet: extruders, fabricators and machine shops of around 5 to 50 people. Every system is bespoke. Instead of fitting your factory to a template, we build the software around how your work already moves: your product codes, your units (metres, kilos or pieces), your check sheets and your names for things. Screens are designed for the people who use them, from a wallboard above the lines to a phone in a pocket. What a system can cover: - Orders and scheduling, with a live line board - Materials and recipes, including regrind limits and metres-to-kilos maths - Tooling, with maintenance flagged before the job that needs it - Stock by lot on an append-only ledger, where mistakes are reversed, never rubbed out - Full traceability, from supplier batch to customer delivery - Scan-and-label tracking: a label printed at each station and scanned at the next, so nothing is keyed twice - Process control: your own quality checks built in, automatic holds, downtime and scrap by reason, and OEE from real bookings It runs in a web browser on the PCs, tablets and phones you already have, with site-locked access by role. Station hardware is optional and priced separately. Pricing starts from £2,950 to set up and £145 a month, with no per-user or per-station fees. Every project starts with a free introductory call, then a site assessment and a fixed-price proposal. The new system runs alongside your spreadsheets until you trust the numbers.
