Quality management – Plex includes closed-loop (Plan, Do, Check, Act) quality control features to help manufacturers better maintain quality of their products and prevent recalls.


Other inventory management features include lot management, shipping and receiving and sequenced parts delivery. There’s an integrated barcode scanning and printing feature that lets operators scan barcodes using their mobile device. Inventory management – The track-and-trace feature maintains a digital trail of each stock for auditing purposes, such as its current location, who uses it and what’s it used for. In addition, users can monitor production activities using built-in dashboards that capture various metrics. The module also includes features for plant and equipment maintenance, such as a standard maintenance, repair and operation (MRO) list for supplies or materials for each machine. Production management – There’s a real-time control panel for managing operations that uses color-coded statuses for each job. Finally, facilities can reduce over-production waste by relying on the digital Kanban scheduling feature. Users can also create finite production schedules where they can customize their rules, resource availability and other factors, and they can use a what-if scheduling scenario for additional insights. Production scheduling – Users can plan out their Materials Requirements Planning (MRP) process, including forecasting materials they need based on scheduled downtime, maintenance and other factors.
