MV2 is a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) built by ISE to help discrete manufacturers run a smarter, more connected shop floor. It delivers real-time production visibility, reduces manual processes, and connects people, machines, and data across your entire operation.
What Does MV2 MES Do?
MV2 is a Manufacturing Execution System designed to improve performance on the shop floor. With real-time production visibility, MV2 helps manufacturers increase efficiency, improve execution, and deliver on time. MV2 connects your ERP directly to the shop floor, so what is planned is executed accurately in real time. It delivers work instructions to operators, captures production data as it happens, and feeds that data back into your ERP, creating a continuous, accurate loop between planning and execution.
Where ERP systems manage the business from the top down, MV2 manages the shop floor from the ground up. The MV2 MES solution makes life easier for operators, supervisors, and leaders by replacing paper tasks and guesswork with clear, real-time information. Teams can see what’s happening, respond faster, and trust the data guiding their decisions. From scheduling and labor tracking to inventory and performance, MV2 helps people work together with confidence and drives productivity by reducing errors and creating the momentum for growth and lasting ROI.
MV2 acts as the Shop Floor Command Center, an MES that delivers real-time visibility, actionable data, and the speed to make better decisions so manufacturers can be proactive, not reactive. These mission-critical tools become essential to daily operations, supporting consistent production success.
Built specifically for discrete manufacturers, MV2 is designed to be managed by operations teams, not IT, making it practical to adopt, easy to scale, and built to deliver measurable results from day one.
What Modules Are Included in MV2 MES?
MV2 is organized into five purpose-built modules. Each one addresses a specific area of shop floor execution:
1. Production Module: Ensures timely job execution, reduces errors, enhances visibility, and broadcasts supervisor decisions across all workstations.
2. Inventory Module: Streamlines material cost management, updates production orders, tracks materials, and enables inventory analysis through a single interface.
3. Quality Module: Seamlessly integrates production and quality, offering flexible control plans, testing, and non-conformance management, enhancing visibility and swiftly addressing quality issues.
4. Kanban Module: Enhances manual Kanbans with advanced tools, updating boards, triggering alerts, and syncing with ERP systems for efficient inventory management.
5. Attendance Module replaces manual systems, consolidates attendance and production data, and eliminates the need for merging disparate data sources
How Does MV2 MES Improve Manufacturing Operations?
MV2 drives three core operational outcomes:
- Real-Time Visibility — Know exactly what is happening on your shop floor at any moment, without waiting for end-of-shift reports
- Faster Decisions — Supervisors and leaders get the data they need, when they need it, to act before problems escalate
- Operational Efficiency — Fewer manual processes, less data chasing, and more consistent execution across every workstation
Who Is MV2 MES Built For?
MV2 is designed for discrete manufacturers’ operations teams, supervisors, and plant leaders who need reliable shop floor control without the complexity of enterprise-scale MES systems. It integrates with leading ERP platforms including Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Finance & Operations, and Infor XA.
Frequently Asked Questions About MV2 MES
Q: What is the difference between an MES and an ERP? An ERP manages business planning, scheduling, purchasing, and financials. An MES like MV2 handles shop-floor execution, tracking what is actually happening in production, in real time. MV2 bridges both by connecting ERP data to shop-floor action.
Q: What problems does MV2 MES solve? MV2 solves common discrete manufacturing challenges including manual data collection, delayed production visibility, disconnected quality and inventory tracking, and the inability to make real-time decisions on the shop floor.
Q: What ERP systems does MV2 integrate with? MV2 integrates with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Finance & Operations, and Infor XA, with open API architecture to support additional ERP connections.
