Jova Solutions's Software Services group has extensive experience integrating all data involved in a complex manufacturing environment, making it visible and accessible to users and systems throughout the enterprise. An important part of our service is to integrate the manufacturing environment with the management systems of the larger enterprise and create an enterprise wide solution that optimizes and streamlines plant operations for maximum performance. We are experienced in implementing Manufacturing Execution Systems and integrating all plant floor data into these systems. We integrate existing Information Technology, Data Management, Manufacturing Execution Systems, Materials/Enterprise Resource Planning, and Supply Chain Management solutions into a unified system.
Our software services team provides:
- Requirements analysis
- Application planning, design and implementation
- Integration of software and hardware components
- Network integration
- Enterprise application integration
- Database integration
- Web integration
- Ongoing support
Our software development team is comprised of experienced engineers that design and develop integrated process control and monitoring systems for many complex manufacturing processes. Our solutions for enterprise to plant floor integration are custom designed specifically for a company's needs.
We integrate any existing enterprise software to create a seamless management solution that spans from production line control through to interaction with and control over diverse and disparate enterprise systems. We integrate at all levels including support for any industrial automation communication standard, support for any type of machine and controller, and by integrating the multiple types of data representations and information content found in enterprise systems . Our unified systems provide management with solutions that span the entire enterprise.
Our custom software expertise includes:
- Motion control and robotics
- Process design and optimization
- Machine Vision systems
- Data management
- High throughput processing
- Large channel count and high-speed applications
- Networked and distributed systems
- Scientific research and development
- Manufacturing
- Database integration
In manufacturing , the production process involves complex facilities and dynamic processes. An integrated enterprise solution must make manufacturing and process information available to all persons and applications with a role in the manufacturing operation. Our software solutions can be fully integrated with industry-standard networks, communication protocols and databases. We can provide web interfaces that allow users to control or change system settings remotely and monitor the status of current process parameters in real time.
