FAQ

What is Pico?

Pico MES is a factory operations platform built for small and medium-size factories. The Manufacturing Execution System provides real-time data through dynamic work instructions for operators and technicians, accurately reflecting your product flow. From integrating equipment to incorporating workstation tools, our software builds in consistency, quality control, and documentation at the ground level for daily production use.

What do I need for setup?

Your required hardware, a small form factor server, and device hubs for your workstations are formatted ahead of time and shipped directly to your location. Once powered on and connected to your network via an ethernet connection, your MES will be live!

Will it integrate with my ERP?

Pico can communicate directly with the ERP already running on your manufacturing floor. Whether assigning job numbers and manufacturing orders to the products you’re building or actively tracking how inventory is consumed, your daily production can continue as-is.

How quickly can I have workstations operational?

Once the server is plugged in and live, the first workstation can be active and operational the same day! Work instructions are quick and easy to update, and the tools at your workstations plug directly into the hub to capture all relevant and desired build activity.

How do I get my work instructions into Pico?

Pico has a user-friendly interface for creating your digital work instructions. Through pictures, videos, BOM tables, and other graphic design tools, your processes and products can quickly come to life as step-by-step instructions for your operators.

What kind of data is tracked?

You can measure every aspect of your operators - process cycle time, standard work efficiencies, throughput, product serial numbers from operation to operation, environmental data, torque values, and any and all other key process indicators. Because your work instructions integrate with the tools you use, each aspect of every workstation can be monitored.

How much does it cost?

Pico MES is available on a monthly subscription basis, structured in tiers by the number of devices active and integrated into your work instructions. The first tier covers all aspects of the work instructions and operators platform and includes up to 40 devices, or approximately 10 workstations.
