§ MES Selection & Rollout
MES selection that doesn't sell you a demo — choose on operator fit, not slideware
Most manufacturers pick an MES vendor based on the wrong criteria. I help you shortlist, score, and contract on what actually matters: adoption, maintainability, and fit to your floor.
Built on 20 years on UK plant floors — including work for a leading British aerospace manufacturer and others, referenced by industry under NDA.
