Sepasoft MES Orchestration for Digital Transformation

Manufacturing workflows are required to execute critical processes the right way – every time. The correct tasks must be carried out in the correct order, with the correct materials, approvals, quality checks, and accurate records, especially in regulated industries (e.g., 21 CFR Part 11). This objective, and true Digital Transformation, can only be accomplished with a platform that is integrated, agile, low-code, and feature-rich. Join us for a demonstration of our various MES offerings to showcase Sepasoft’s orchestrated workflow solution.

Ignition Community Unites To Build Homeless Management Information System

Room in the Inn (RITI) was using four disparate software packages, Excel, and email to run their operations, but there were still too many gaps and the logistics were too complex for the existing solutions. Vertech offered to build an Ignition application that combined all their software packages for their existing operations and included additional logistics features. And Vertech offered to do it for free. Over 150 volunteers from around the world participated in this two-and-a-half-year project to provide RITI with the solution they need to help serve the homeless community in Nashville, TN.
