The problem

MES projects shouldn't outlive your product cycle.

Traditional MES rollouts take years and lock your operations into someone else's vendor roadmap. RockQ's MES is built visually on your platform — extend it the day requirements change, owned by the team that runs the line.

Architecture

MES, composed from the platform.

Connect machines, model your processes, and ship operator apps — all on one platform. The data model, the workflows and the UI live together so a change on the floor is one edit, not three vendors.

Consumers

Where the value lands

Dashboards

OEE, throughput and shift KPIs — visible to ops and management in real time.

Reports

Automatic shift, daily and monthly reports. No-one builds spreadsheets.

Audit & compliance

Every event signed and timestamped. Audits become a query, not a project.

What's included

Capabilities included.

OEE, digital shift log, order management, andon, batching and more — the full MES surface, ready to extend.

OEE Monitoring

Visualize Overall Equipment Effectiveness. Identify bottlenecks to track availability, performance, and quality.

Digital Shift Log

Replace paper logs with a seamless digital interface. Capture shift events and anomalies in real-time.

Order Management

Digitize production orders. Give operators clear priorities and track progress in real-time.

Andon Systems

Visualize production status on large screens. Empower operators to signal issues immediately.

Batch Management

Control recipes and batch parameters. Ensure consistent quality with automated parameter sets.

Label Printing

Automate labeling at the source. Trigger printing directly from the production process.

Process Interlocking

Prevent errors before they happen. Enforce sequential process steps to ensure specifications are met.

Machine Data Collection

Connect to any PLC or sensor using vendor-independent standard protocols. Centralize data for analysis and reporting without vendor lock-in.

How it works

From floor to dashboard in weeks.

1

Connect

Bring in PLC, OPC UA and ERP data with vendor-independent connectors.

2

Model

Define your work centers, hierarchies, products and routings visually.

3

Build

Drag-and-drop operator apps — andon, shift log, order release, label printing.

4

Run

Deploy on-prem or cloud. Iterate as the floor evolves.

Outcomes

Outcomes that move the P&L.

−30%

Unplanned downtime

Faster reaction loops, fewer hidden stoppages.

8 weeks

First plant live

From kickoff to operators using the system.

100%

Paperless shift handover

Every event captured, every report automatic.
