MES Provider to Offer its Software for Free

Pico MES and Pollington REDWOOD CITY, CA—To help small and midsized manufacturers take advantage of digital transformation, software supplier Pico MES has announced that all manufacturers will be able to use its digital work instruction suite of tools for free. Every manufacturer that signs up will receive a free cloud-based instance with capabilities to build worker guidance instructions, create digital process flows, and assign stations. The only restrictions will be on the number of stations and operators who can use the software. “This is not a free trial with a time limit.

We want to eliminate barriers to technology.” Small and medium-sized businesses continue to rely heavily on manual tools that are difficult to maintain, such as spreadsheets and pen and paper, for managing their operations, […]
