MES software for manufacturers of industrial machinery and capital goods
MES software for complex projects, tight deadlines and margins under pressure
When every machine is a unique project, manufacturing without real-time visibility is no longer an option. IbernovaMES is the MES system designed for industrial machinery manufacturers who need to monitor engineering, manufacturing, assembly and testing in real time.

INCREASE IN DELIVERIES WITHIN THE AGREED TIMEFRAME
REDUCTION IN AVERAGE LEAD TIME FROM 26 TO 20 WEEKS
REDUCTION IN REWORK
REDUCTION IN THE BUDGET VARIANCE FROM +8% TO +2%
Manufacturing bespoke machinery without proper quality control is no longer sustainable
Does this situation sound familiar to you?
- Every machine is a different project, and progress is monitored by eye
- Planning based on Excel, constant phone calls and meetings
- Engineering changes arriving late at the workshop
- Assemblies held up due to a lack of parts or information
- Rework that drives up costs and delays
- The ERP system does not reflect what is actually happening on the shop floor
The problem isn’t the complexity of the machinery; it’s the lack of proper visibility in the workshop.
The solution: IbernovaMES

DESIGNED FOR PROJECTS, NOT FOR SERIES
Every machine is a unique project. Progress is managed by project, assembly and phase, rather than as a repetitive sequence of standard operations.

MANUFACTURING, ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS AS CRITICAL STAGES
The system reflects the reality of industrial machinery: machining, assembly, adjustments and testing are all part of project management; they are not secondary tasks.

CONNECTED ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING
View floor plans and documentation provided by the engineering department, thereby avoiding miscoordination, errors and rework, whilst keeping the documentation centralised.

TECHNICAL TRACEABILITY AND DOCUMENTATION FROM THE SOURCE
Components, materials, operations, tests and technical documentation are recorded during the process, not at the end or manually.
HOW TO TRANSFORM DAY-TO-DAY OPERATIONS AT YOUR INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY AND CAPITAL GOODS MANUFACTURING FACILITY
With IbernovaMES for companies in the INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY and CAPITAL GOODS sectors, you can move from managing by instinct to controlling complex projects with precision.
Coordinates manufacturing, assembly and testing effectively, anticipating bottlenecks and being able to reallocate resources before they affect deadlines and commitments to the client.
View the progress of each machine, sub-assembly and phase in real time, from machining through to FAT/SAT, without relying on constant meetings or fragmented information.
View documentation, drawings and technical lists, ensuring alignment between engineering and the workshop to avoid errors, rework and deviations caused by using the wrong documents.
It records materials, operations, tests and validations during implementation, creating a complete as-built record of the equipment without any additional work at the end of the project.
Your business without IbernovaMES
- Project tracking in Excel, emails and meetings
- Time wasted looking for plans, versions and current statuses
- Problems identified when they are already affecting deadlines and costs
- More projects running simultaneously = less control
- Close coordination between engineering, production and assembly
- Technical errors that lead to rework and additional costs
- Documentation and certificates prepared at the end
- Decisions based on experience, not on actual data
Your business with IbernovaMES
- Real-time project management from a single system
- Centralised technical and production information readily available
- Anticipating deviations before they affect delivery
- The ability to manage more projects without losing control
- Effective coordination between engineering, manufacturing and assembly
- Reducing errors and safeguarding margins
- Traceability and documentation generated during the process
- Decisions based on actual progress and cost data
All this with:
A user-friendly interface
Lower cost

Modules specifically designed for manufacturers of industrial machinery and capital goods
Each module of our MES is specifically designed for your industrial processes and solutions.
Integration with your ERP
MES-ERP integration links planning, engineering and the workshop, preventing duplication of effort, data inconsistencies and decisions based on out-of-date information. This is the difference between winging it and being in control.
Production control
In industrial machinery and capital goods companies, Production Control allows you to monitor in real time what is happening in machining, assembly, adjustment and testing, highlighting any deviations whilst there is still time to take action.
Document viewer
The Document Viewer ensures that manufacturing, assembly and testing always operate in accordance with the documentation in the shared repository. Engineering changes are immediately, traceably and securely communicated to the production floor.
Order management and sequencing
This module enables you to move from theoretical sequencing to actual load control, assigning execution priorities in line with your plant’s actual availability.
Quality Control
It integrates quality into the production process, enabling you to monitor, record and correct deviations whilst
there is still time to take action, through the use of checklists
Analytics and operational reporting
See the real-time status of your projects, resources and performance without relying on manual reports. Data is no longer scattered; it becomes a management tool.
Data validation
This module ensures that the data entered into the system accurately reflects what has actually happened on the shop floor before decisions are made. Clean data, fewer disputes and real control over your production.
EXPERTS IN YOUR INDUSTRY
Why choose specialised MES software?
Every industry has its own specific needs, regulations and challenges that affect planning, production and quality.
A specialised MES adapts to these specific requirements, optimising critical processes, ensuring regulatory compliance and providing reliable data for making quick and accurate decisions, outperforming general-purpose systems that attempt to cover everything without taking into account the reality of each individual company.
General-purpose MES system
- It attempts to cover multiple sectors without making any major changes
- Requires additional configuration to comply with regulations
- Standard planning, less closely aligned with actual operations
- Basic data capture, without customised details
- Generic controls, often offline
- Lower accuracy; requires more manual effort to analyse and improve
- It requires extensive customisation and has a steeper learning curve
Specialised MES system
- It is tailored to the specific needs and processes of each industry
- It incorporates industry-specific regulations and standards
- Optimise workflows in line with the sector’s operational realities
- Captures real-time process data tailored to sector-specific requirements
- Incorporate specific checklists and quality controls into the process
- Optimise resources and reduce scrap based on actual parameters
- Quick setup with processes already tailored to the sector

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an MES for industrial machinery?
MES is a system that monitors the actual progress of manufacturing on the shop floor, enabling users to view progress, timelines, issues and traceability for bespoke machinery projects.
Can an MES be implemented without halting production?
Yes. IbernovaMES is rolled out gradually, starting with controlled areas and without disrupting workshop operations.
Is it compatible with my current ERP system?
Yes. IbernovaMES integrates with the leading ERPs on the market, complementing administrative planning with real-time shop floor data.
Is an ERP system necessary to implement an MES?
No. IbernovaMES can operate independently, and if you already have an ERP system, it integrates with it to share real-time data on production, quality and consumption.
Is it designed for ETO (Engineering To Order) projects?
Yes. The system is specifically designed for made-to-order manufacturing, long-term projects and one-off machines.
How long does it take to start seeing results?
The benefits become apparent from the very first months, as visibility of the process improves, hidden losses are reduced and decisions are made based on real-time data.
