MachineMetrics and WM Synergy Partner to Deliver AI-Powered, Real-Time MES Intelligence to Infor ERP Users

EASTHAMPTON, MA – September 19, 2025 – Manufacturing has always been defined by its ability to plan and challenged by its ability to execute. ERP systems outline the ideal production path: what to make, when to make it, and at what cost. But when those plans hit the shop floor, reality intervenes: machines break down, setups run long, materials arrive late, and tribal knowledge overrides system logic. This is the execution gap, and closing it is one of the most valuable opportunities in manufacturing.

MachineMetrics, the pioneer in intelligent, real-time MES, and WM Synergy, a leading ERP consulting and integration firm specializing in Infor Visual, Infor SyteLine, and Infor XA ERP, are partnering to close that gap. Together, they’re delivering a seamless connection between live machine data and ERP platforms, empowering manufacturers with AI-driven analytics, predictive insights, and real-time decision intelligence. In addition to the Infor ERP connector, the teams will collaborate to extend these capabilities to Acumatica.

“MachineMetrics is redefining how manufacturing execution happens,” said Graham Immerman, Chief Revenue Officer of MachineMetrics, “By embedding intelligence directly at the point of action, we’re empowering teams to make better decisions, faster, and without more resources. The result is a factory that is more agile, more predictable, and more profitable today and in the future.”

The combined solution enables ERP users to:

• Synchronize work orders, labor data, and production status with the shop floor automatically - no custom coding required.
• Gain predictive insights to identify root causes of downtime before they occur.
• Leverage automated performance feedback to continuously improve productivity.
• Drive seamless, closed-loop integration between machine-level intelligence and enterprise planning systems.

Operators get a single interface for tracking jobs, entering labor, and viewing real-time performance feedback. Leaders gain instant visibility into production performance against schedule, with the tools to optimize throughput and profitability.

“Our customers want fast, effective solutions that bridge the gap between business systems and the shop floor,” said Paul Tedford, CEO of WM Synergy. “MachineMetrics delivers a modular, AI-enabled MES that integrates seamlessly with Infor ERP, helping manufacturers embrace digital transformation, maximize ROI, and stay competitive.”

With rapid deployment methods and proven integration playbooks, the joint solution can be implemented in weeks, allowing manufacturers to capture ROI faster while laying the foundation for scalable AI innovation and continuous improvement.
