MES for Contract Manufacturers

WIN THE QUOTE.
KEEP THE PROMISE.

You sell capacity and credibility. Both depend on knowing what a part really takes, what capacity you have, and which jobs make money. Dispatch the work, capture what happens, and quote the next one from real numbers, without stitching three systems together.

THE PROBLEM

THE SHOP RUNS ON MEMORY AND MEMORY IS RETIRING.

Margin is built on routing standards no one has validated in years. Capacity lives on a whiteboard. Scheduling and setup knowledge live in someone’s head. The P&L says the shop is profitable, but no one knows which jobs actually made money. 

 

OLD ASSUMPTIONS CAN’T PROTECT TODAY’S JOB MARGINS.

THE KNOWLEDGE IS TRIBAL

Which machine holds tolerance on which part, what the setup trick is, what that sound means. It’s undocumented, and it walks out the door at retirement.

OTD IS YOUR REPUTATION

You’re only as good as your last delivery, and every customer keeps score. A late job discovered at the shipping dock costs you the next award.

EVERY CUSTOMER BRINGS THEIR OWN RULES

Aerospace flow-downs on one machine, medical documentation on the next, automotive scorecards on a third. You absorb every industry’s requirements at once.

QUOTE IT. SCHEDULE IT.
RUN IT. DELIVER IT.

MaximaOs transforms every shift into measurable insights that drive decisions. The result: a plant that executes the plan, adapts when reality changes, and gets the job done on time, every time.

Quote from what the part actually took.

Use actual cycle, setup, and cost data from every run to build more accurate quotes. Know what the part really takes, how much capacity you have to sell, and the delivery date you can confidently promise. Every job makes the next quote better.

ONE LIVE SCHEDULE FOR THE WHOLE FLOOR.

Track machine status, capacity, live progress, and upcoming work in one place. Completion estimates update with every cycle, at risk jobs surface early, and changing priorities is as simple as moving the next job into place.

CAPTURE EVERY JOB WITHOUT EXTRA DATA ENTRY.

Capture downtime, cycles, counts, and setup automatically. Operators manage jobs, rejects, and labor from one screen while prompts keep records complete. Measure setup time, keep job knowledge with the work, and reduce dependence on tribal knowledge.

SEE WHICH JOBS ARE COSTING YOU MARGIN.

Cost every job from actual labor, machine time, setup, and production quantities. Compare actuals to the quote, trace margin misses to the operation, break down scrap by cause, and send verified labor and production data to ERP automatically.

production runs

RUN UNATTENDED WITH CONFIDENCE.

Monitor tool load in real time to catch wear, chipping, breakage, and process drift early. Hold feed when needed, track remaining tool life, route alerts by cause, and monitor live machine status from any device.

SCALE WITHOUT ADDING IT OVERHEAD.

Deploy in days with no servers, database administration, or upgrade projects. Start with utilization and downtime, add MES capabilities as needed, build dashboards without IT, and use Max to turn plain language questions into answers.

See It In Action

Pindel Global Precision believed utilization was running around sixty-five percent. Measured from the machines, it was closer to thirty. Their CEO walks through what that changed about capital, capacity, and how many machines one machinist can run. STOP GUESSING AT UTILIZATION.

TESTIMONIALS

THE SHOPS THAT KNOW THEIR NUMBERS.

Contract manufacturers quoting from demonstrated times, promising dates they keep, and finally knowing which jobs paid.
