Unlike a rigid Manufacturing Execution System that operates as a plant-based application, Apriso’s FlexNet provides real-time, global visibility into, control over and synchronization across your global enterprise manufacturing operations at every site – including those within your product supply network.

FlexNet 9.5 SP 2 offers improved abilities to capture and disseminate manufacturing intelligence with FlexNet Manufacturing Process Intelligence (MPI), a product that delivers real-time visibility to important performance metrics to drive greater performance and manufacturing efficiency. Accelerate new product introductions to achieve a shorter time-to-global market by integrating FlexNet with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems. Improve operational efficiency and leverage existing IT investments by integrating with ERP to achieve a greater return on investment.

All functionality within FlexNet can be managed as an end-to-end process because of a shared business process management framework and unified data model, making continuous improvement more effective and universally applied across your enterprise. FlexNet 9.5 continues to offer these capabilities, but delivers through redesigned user interfaces and Agile process improvement methodologies to further simplify continuous process improvement. Tighter governance of global manufacturing processes is possible through FlexNet’s lifecycle approach to business process management, so regulatory compliance requirements are more easily met and quality is improved.

A partial listing of significant FlexNet 9.5 improvements includes:

  • Advanced process blueprinting and prototyping features that support an Agile approach to continuous process improvement
  • Improved monitoring and process visualization for multi-plant deployments to accelerate new product introductions
  • Expanded real-time visibility into manufacturing process performance and intelligence (see announcement)
  • Enhanced Manufacturing Process Management (MPM) capabilities to ease the management of processes extending across a manufacturer’s operations
  • Better tracking and monitoring of business process lifecycles for improved process governance and a lower total cost of compliance
  • Greater support for mobile applications, including those running on iPads and iPhones (see announcement)
  • Redesigned User Interface (UI) for reduced project risk and greater productivity
