Project & Assessment Services
Health Assessment Project
How YOU can accomplish more…
The ISE MES Health Assessment is designed to help your people get more out of the technology they already use every day. It’s not just about software, it’s about empowering teams with better insights, smoother workflows, and more time to focus on what really matters: making great products.
ISE’s manufacturing execution system supports critical areas like workflow efficiency, WIP tracking, traceability, quality, and throughput. But to fully realize these benefits, your team needs a clear vision of where opportunities exist. The Health Assessment uncovers those opportunities by examining how ISE is being used in your environment and comparing it with proven best practices, all tailored to the unique rhythm of your operation.
Through this collaborative review, we’ll identify strengths, gaps, and quick wins, creating a practical roadmap that helps your people and your business get the most value from ISE.
With decades of experience across diverse manufacturing environments, ISE experts bring hands-on knowledge and creative solutions that align technology with your people’s needs and processes.
Migration Assessment Project
How large of a task will this be for me to upgrade from MDCC?
The ISE MES product is the follow-on offering replacing MDCC. ISE MES encompasses the major functions of MDCC, and it has many enhanced features beyond MDCC; however, it does not offer a one-to-one replacement for the less significant features of MDCC. When choosing development priorities on the new MES product, ISE placed the development of new features that benefited a greater number of customers ahead of specific MDCC features that were used by fewer customers. This Migration Assessment has been created by ISE to help smooth the transition from MDCC to MES by identifying as many functional gaps as possible up front, prior to them becoming obstacles to a successful implementation of MES.
Opportunity Assessment Project
What will deploying Paper-Less do for me?
The ISE Opportunity Assessment provides a comprehensive evaluation of existing manufacturing processes and identifies opportunities for utilizing MV2 MES software to achieve significant performance improvements. The vision is to establish one software product, ISE MES, to act as the central system replacing numerous disparate systems, whether they be manual or automated methods. The Opportunity Assessment enables customers to gain a greater understanding of the potential contribution an implementation of MV2 MES will bring to their organization.

Technical Assessment Project
Can we validate the high level provider mapping to my ERP system?
The ISE Technical Assessment provides customers with a thorough evaluation of the compatibility between the MV2 MES product and their ERP solution. The MV2 MES application highly leverages ERP data to facilitate shop floor reporting. In turn, reported activity is sent back to ERP in the form of individual transactions. That bi-directional exchange is facilitated through what ISE calls our “Generic ERP Provider,” which is the infrastructure used for the integration between ERP and ISE. The ISE Technical Assessment will focus on the ERP Provider and guide the investigation to determine the compatibility of the data available in ERP and ISE MES. Upon completion of this session, customers should gain significant insight into the scope and complexity of building the interface between ERP and MES.

Proof of Concept Project
Let’s obtain hard evidence that MV2 MES is the right decision before moving forward.
The ISE Proof of Concept provides prospective customers a milestone in their selection process to assist with the validation of MV2 MES. This offering is intended for buyers who have matured their software evaluation process to the point where ISE is the preferred solution, but further evidence of their decision is necessary before proceeding with the purchase of the software. This offering enhances any decision process by providing an opportunity to experience MV2 MES firsthand with data specific to your environment and scenarios that mimic targeted work areas and workflows. This activity provides the final assurance that the ISE MES solution will meet your business requirements.

Reporting Services Project
Let us configure and use the built-in MS SQL reporting services that we already own.
ISE has gone to great lengths to establish the MES Reporting Layer, which provides a view into the manufacturing execution system database that is meaningful to non-technical resources. The Reporting Layer simplifies access to data that is otherwise embedded deeply within a complex database typically used by developers. Once this resource is understood, users can extract data and unlock the power of transforming it into meaningful, actionable information.
The MES Reporting leverages the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) toolset—which is already available on the MV2 MES Application Serve to unleash its capabilities against the power of the MV2 SQL database. Upon completing this offering, customers will have limitless potential to creatively unlock value from the detailed shop floor information contained within the MV2 MES solution.

Powerlink Business Objects Project
We need business objects That have underlying MSSQL views.
ISE created the PowerLink Business Objects services offering to help customers extend their use of the PowerLink technology from Infor. PowerLink has the capability to encompass data from other databases and platforms—both of which align well with MV2 MES since it utilizes a SQL database on the Microsoft Server platform. One of the advantages this offering provides is access to MES data through an Infor XA screen, accomplished through PowerLink technology.
The outcome of this offering is to give users an understanding of the structure and content of the MES SQL database and to use PowerLink to access MES data to create their own reports and build meaningful views of information that can help improve business performance. Information such as downtime, serial number history, production rates, and Kanban history can be viewed through PowerLink-based MES business objects to assess and accelerate manufacturing performance.

ISE Engineered IT
ISE offers a full range of IT services and solutions that includes planning, implementing, maintaining, and upgrading your technology.
As your business grows in size and sophistication, your IT infrastructure needs to keep pace. What worked a few years ago won’t deliver the performance, reliability and security you need today. Nor will it deliver the information access and collaboration features that today’s workers require. With the right enterprise architecture, you can support the speed, reliability and security your organization requires.
