Camstars leading Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) for global enterprises monitor and synchronize manufacturing activities across globally distributed plants, and link them in real-time to the enterprise.

These systems, based on Camstars InSite Suite, track products and orders on the plant floor, collect transactions for reporting to back-office applications including ERP and CRM, and electronically dispatch these orders or product requirements to shop floor personnel.

The InSite tracking framework also provides key data services to the shop floor, including real-time quality data checks, yield monitoring, automatic system actions, and lot traceability for improved quality and process.

Designed for Multiple Sites and Systems
InSite connects multiple plants, sites, and vendors with live production information, integrating easily with existing processes and applications, adapting to any manufacturing model, and supporting multiple models simultaneously. A unique methodology for dynamically storing and sharing data ensures that manufacturers can change complex processes with simple commands, and share live production data among multiple applications.

With InSite, manufacturers can achieve new levels of responsiveness across global networks through:

Effective inventory management
Order tracking and customization
Optimized yields
Accelerated decision-making
Shortened production cycles
Key Features
InSite is based on a highly configurable plant and process information model that offers exceptional flexibility and simplifies system management—without workarounds or programming.

Comprehensive Workflow Management
Workflows can be quickly modeled using intuitive drag-and-drop tools. Add new steps on the fly, vary production requirements and make last-minute order changes, all with traceability.
Work-in-Process Tracking

InSites unique multi-level work-in-process (WIP) tracking provides unprecedented visibility and control over production processes.
Resource Management and Control
Integrated resource tracking helps to proactively manage potential problems and enable optimal equipment scheduling.
Quality Management
InSite collects vendor and in-process quality data and monitors processes with statistical process control (SPC). RMA processing handles field returns, provides analysis for root cause determination.

Complete Processing Traceability
InSite’s paperless audit trail comprise unit histories with steps processed, dates and times, equipment used, operator responsible, materials added, quality data collected, and ship and receive details.
Internationalization

Comprehensive internationalization features make it easy to localize plant terminology and language for operators and managers. All activity is recorded in both local time and GMT for complete global traceability.
100% Open Integration
InSite provides the critical connection between equipment, plant floor operations, distribution systems, supply chain manufacturing, and customer-facing business. InSite can be integrated with ERP systems for production planning, and with order management and SCM systems for a complete manufacturing solution.
