Stabilized and upgraded system through migration
In an ever-changing business environment the right strategy is often essential. When a system becomes outdated and obsolete, it places a strain on the company and leads to difficulties such as migration costs, system instability. At Miracom we specialize in migration from legacy systems and have crafted a migration service to stabilize the migration process. Our engineers’ technical competence to overcome migration obstacles are overcome by using Miracom’s verified technical migration skills and competence.
 
 
Is migration necessary?

• Discontinuation or dissatisfaction of functional upgrades
Many MES systems are dated and functional upgrades have ceased to release new upgrades. This presents a problem to factories that are trying to accommodate to new demands, specialized quality requirements and faster cycle times.

• Development based on old technology
Most older MES systems are based on Oracle CODASYL DBMS, presenting a problem for factories that are trying to maintain systems that had already been previously implemented. Old technology blocks the improvement of MES and Automation thus resulting in increased costs.

• Excessive costs for maintenance & customization
Maintenance and customization continue to increase and add up over the years despite the lack of hardware, DBMS and third party platform upgrades. Another overlapping obstacle is the difficulty iof adding new custom functions - resulting in higher development costs. Over time using an outdated MES system results in Higher TCO (Total cost of ownership) due to complicated system architecture.

The most critical issue during the migration process for information is a possible breakdown. Our migration expertise and knowledge allows for a smooth process transition with zero downtime of your IT system, so that production can continuously run without any delay.

 
 
Why do companies still use an old MES?

• Risk Factor
MES is a long term investment and requires complex planning. We at Miracom understand the migration process and gives us the advantage to migrate with minimum to zero downtime for all related systems to go live simultaneously. There is no other time than now to consider migration as the economy is making fast turns and perfect manufacturing is at its all-time height.

• Hesitant to take the leap
Customers continue to wait for the “right time” to migrate for a newly architected MES system, and companies even discontinue older MES maintenance contracts. MES continues to be a core process for high volume manufacturing companies, we at Miracom understand how to invest a high level of detail and attention to the process – making it easier and more helpful for our customers.

• Looking for appropriate solutions
Customers continue to search for solutions that can replace and enhance their company. Miracom offers a complete Manufacturing Operations Solution package that can not only replace an older MES but enhance other important processes
