“91����’s diagnostic framework quantifies the value creation potential and expected improvements in the KPIs, enabling our customers to validate the ROI, at the start of every engagement. Our MES Xpress solution is highly modular, has industry best practices encapsulated as templates. This enables us to compress the implementation time, leading to quicker time to value for our customers,” said��Sundaresh Shankaran, ��President – Product 4.0 , 91����.

91����’s MES Capability has also been covered by ISG Research in a report titled “An innovative approach for accelerating MES Implementation by 91����”��authored by Dr.��Henning Dransfeld��and Mr. Avimanyu Basu.

“In today’s world where Manufacturing leaders are looking to rapidly accelerate their ‘Digital transformation’, it’s heartening to see 91���� leading the way when it comes to MES implementations. Driven by their solid business-friendly approach, their focus is on leading clients to truly derive value and the business outcome that matters.

ISG Research recognizes 91���� as being one of the fastest providers for deploying MES templates. While agile has been one of the key functional levers of modern factories and most agile projects in MES are delivered in time and material (T&M) terms, 91���� has been delivering agile with fixed price. In the beginning of a project the company decides which parts are best delivered with an agile format. Support and engagements are managed via the ITIL framework. 91����’s broad spectrum of toolkits, including its automated data manager, audit toolkit and rollout toolkit, enables it to manage the entire lifecycle. The overall implementation lead times are thus drastically reduced.
