Production tracking for the factory floor

Stop logging production on paper and spreadsheets.

A lightweight Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for shops that grew past their clipboards — with real support for work orders, scheduling, OEE, and downtime tracking. Operators log on tablets, phones, or computers. Managers see the floor in real time. Shift summaries write themselves — from one-machine shops to multi-plant operations.

Capabilities

The four pillars of an MES — done right for smaller shops

Work orders, scheduling, OEE, and downtime tracking are the backbone of any Manufacturing Execution System. ShopLog does all four — without the six-figure rollout or the full-time admin.

Work orders & dispatch

Create and release work orders, sequence them into a per-machine dispatch queue, and start the next job with one tap. Every production run traces back to a work order.

Scheduling & at-risk alerts

A plant-wide schedule board projects each job's finish date from your real shift calendar — holidays and breaks included — and flags at-risk work before it slips.

OEE, per plant & per machine

Availability × Performance × Quality, trended over time and drillable down to a single machine — the metric your floor already lives by.

Downtime tracking

One tap starts a downtime with a reason code; start, end, and duration are captured automatically. Live on the floor view, Pareto-ranked in the reports.

… among others

  • Real-time floor view
  • Scrap & reject analysis
  • Startup vs. production rejects
  • Defect & downtime reason codes
  • Auto-generated shift summaries
  • Shift handover
  • First Pass Yield
  • Multi-plant roll-ups
  • Byproduct & grinder tracking
  • ISO 9001 audit trail
How it works

From clipboard to live floor in a week

No vendor-led implementation. No two-month rollout. You configure your shop, your operators log their first shift, and your managers see the numbers the same day.

01

Configure your shop

Plants, machines, departments, shifts. Reason codes and roles are yours, not ours.

02

Operators log

Tablets, phones, or computers on the floor. Good count, scrap, downtimes. Under 30 seconds per entry.

03

Managers see

Live floor view. Active-downtime tickers. OEE, FPY, and shift summaries auto-generated.

04

Drill in & decide

Any work order, any machine, any day. Pareto-ranked scrap and downtime, ready to act on.

What is an MES?

Manufacturing Execution System, in plain English

An MES is the software that sits between your ERP and the people on the floor. It captures what’s actually happening on each machine, each shift, in real time — so you don’t find out about a bad run on Monday morning. That’s exactly what ShopLog gives small and mid-sized manufacturers, without the six-month rollout.

  • Monitor — live machine status, good counts, scrap, and downtime as they happen
  • Control — work orders, a per-machine dispatch queue, a plant-wide schedule, reason codes, and roles configured per shop
  • Document — every entry, every edit, every downtime, with an audit trail that holds up to ISO 9001
  • Analyze — OEE (per plant and per machine), FPY, Pareto charts, and auto-generated shift summaries, ready to act on
Who it’s for

Built for shops that grew past their spreadsheets

Most MES platforms are built for Fortune 500 plants with a full-time admin and a six-figure budget. ShopLog is built for everyone else — the shop with one machine, the shop with a hundred, and every plant in between.

  • Plastics, metal fab, electronics, food, packaging — any discrete manufacturing
  • From a single machine to dozens, one plant to many
  • Whatever’s on the floor — tablets, phones, or shop-floor PCs. Gloves and grease tolerated.
  • Plant managers who want yesterday’s numbers before today’s coffee
  • Owners who want every plant in one window, not a stack of spreadsheets
