Clients are constantly looking to their suppliers for a reduction in costs or extra capacity during peak periods. This can only be achieved by removing waste from the process, realising efficiency gains, or by releasing hidden additional capacity. This is why clients turn to Milestone, a PM Group company, to analyse and implement highly effective manufacturing intelligence systems.

Milestone can provide you with the tools to collect and transform your data into information that can drive your continuous improvement programs without exhausting your existing resources. Due to the independence of Milestone, you can be sure that the solution provided will be fully assessed against your individual business requirements.

We are a solutions partner with GE and our independence ensures that we can fully assess your MES requirements against all systems available on the market to ensure the solution implemented is a perfect fit to your business needs. From Weigh Dispense to full supply chain control we have the resources to ensure successful implementation. Implementing MES is a first step in achieving benefits such as:

• Optimising asset utilisation
• Increasing overall equipment effectiveness
• Maximising Return On Investments
• Improving  product quality and operator empowerment
• Reducing costs, scrap, cycle time, lead time, Work In Progress and data entry time

Milestone, a PM Group company, have extensive industry experience in process and equipment automation having implemented complex solutions on all standard PLC/SCADA and DCS systems.

We have worked successfully with many clients to develop automation standards and class based software which can be leveraged across multiple manufacturing sites dramatically reducing implementation time and costs.

Understanding your business process is crucial to defining, selecting and implementing the correct solution. Without detailed analysis there is a significant risk that your project will be subject to delays, increased budget expenditure or worse still an implemented solution that is not capable of meeting the requirements of the business.

At Milestone we offer an extensive analysis service that engages key stakeholders from the outset to fully map the business process and document the solution requirements.  As independent consultants, we are able to recommend solutions that meet the expectations of the business whilst mitigating risk during implementation.
