Some of the Specifications
IoT based Online Machine Data Acquisition
Wide range of data collection options for all types of machines, including traditional and modern machines. OPC UA, MT Connect, Modbus, MQTT, EuroMap, Fanuc Focas protocols are supported. Any machines available to communicate via these protocols can be connected to the system immediately.
For Legacy machines that are not able to communicate using the above protocols, Smart Counter (link) devices are being used to track machine production easily.
The onboarding duration is typically a day.
Promanage is suitable for any type of machine from any type of industry.
Monitoring & Analysis : From Data to Information & Knowledge
All the data collected from the machines are processed to convert information to decide for better manufacturing management. ProManage helps implement lean manufacturing & lean management methodologies at the plant quickly, easily, and in detail reliably. Ready dashboards & reports help users with easy onboarding. For advanced requirements, custom-designed dashboards and custom-designed reports give the manufacturer a unique position of competitiveness.
ProManage Cloud Provides an Extra Assistant to You To Track & Report
ProManage users may define escalated warning structure using ProGuard. Some events, KPI’s and treshold values of these KPIs, periodic or triggered reports are prepared and distributed automatically by ProGuard to defined people in realtime via mobile application, emails or SMS.
All the data can be transferred to BI Tools automatically and periodically.
All the raw data collected from the machines or processed data as information gathered from calculation results, KPI values, Reports e.t.c. can be transferred to BI tools automatically and periodically by ProManage to allow user develop additional processes or user interfaces by themselves easily.
Different Levels of Functionality For Smooth Digital Transformation even for SMBs
ProManage Cloud is an IoT-based smart manufacturing management system with 3 levels of functionality, from very basic functionalities to very comprehensive MES/MOM functionality. This provides an easy and smooth lean digital transformation roadmap for even SMB manufacturers.
3 levels of functionality begin with just monitoring functionality level, which does not require any user data entrance into the plant. Onboarding for the first stage is very easy and can be completed in one day. This level provides insight into performance levels and encouragement to lean&smart transformation.
Level 2 is an entry to lean transformation & root cause analysis and improvement culture using real-time detailed root cause data about the plant.
Level 3 is a complete MES/MOM system, including product & work order management for a mature and comprehensive lean & digital manufacturing operations management.
Reliable Cloud Platform
You do not need a comprehensive server & database infrastructure to run a real-time Smart Factory. ProManage Cloud already includes a high-end, reliable, fast, preconfigured, and continuously managed server & database platform for you. You just focus on your customers, production flow, and performance improvement activities.
Minimum Infrastructure Request for a Quick Start
IoT-enabled machines can be connected to the system via an ethernet cable. The system requires just an internet connection and a computer as an edge computer rather than this. Smart counters are a very good fit for legacy machines to collect production data easily from any type of machine.
ProManage Cloud Eliminates All Barries Between You and Smart Manufacturing
ProManage MES/MOM System has been used by hundreds of manufacturers for years with great success.
ProManage is the tool to make daily life easier for a manufacturer who aims to be one of the best in their area. A company targeted to be Tier 1 level, the leader in the competition, sustainable, cost management, etc., uses Promanage to manage manufacturing operations in transparent, easy, data-driven, lean, modern ways.
At ProManage, we have spent several years developing Promanage Cloud to help companies as SMB s or even big-sized international companies willing to begin or try Smart Manufacturing and the journey but have some barriers to begin.
ProManage Cloud solves the main barriers between companies and Smart Manufacturing.
ProManage Cloud is designed to communicate with machines directly, or Smart Counter devices are easily connected to machines to convert them ioT-compatible machines. The installation period is several hours for a machine, which is very easy, fast and does not require highly trained employee.
As for system usage, Promanage Cloud has 3 different usage levels, from the very basic to very comprehensive levels. This allows a smooth onboarding without significant training or a highly educated employee profile as a user.
Any company can begin with a function set 1, which does not even require user interference at the shop floor.

ProManage Cloud is a SaaS application and just requires a simple computer and internet connection to begin. The system uses Oracle database and Cloud as separate portals for each company which is very secure regarding to sustainability and cyber security.
Promanage Cloud does not requires highly trained IT effort from manufacturers. Everything is handled by Promanage Cloud.
ProManage cloud is subscription-based by machine quantity. You do not have to invest for a huge software and system. Also, different functionality levels and machine quantity-based monthly subscription options allows a very effordable start.
You may begin with one machine or workstation and minimum functionality for several months and try it. When you realize the benefits, you may expend upon your request. System allows significant savings and profit increases. Usually users gain for further expensions budget already before expansion via Promanage Cloud.
ProManage Cloud is developed after successfully implementing more than 500 projects in various manufacturing processes worldwide. Implementations have been done on five continents tracking and managing over 50,000 machines.
Customers are among different industries within discrete manufacturing: automotive, plastics, machining, metal processing, home appliances, food, and packaging, FM-CG, electronics, etc.
Some of the customers are Siemens, 3M, ABB, Schneider Electric, Haribo, Lincoln Electric and Maxion Wheels.
ProManage knows how to manage Smart Manufacturing Transformation project deployment and works with manufacturers along the transformation process.
With the help of cloud infrastructure, subscription-based payment beginning with one machine or station and sequential usage levels from basic to the most comp- rehensive with low initial costs become available. In some cases, the return on in- vestment could be as low as one to two weeks.
Traditional smart manufacturing systems are typically installed on-premise with pro- cedures that require software updates on servers and each client machine and operator interface.
As ProManage Cloud is a web-based Cloud solution, updates occur seamlessly and frequently without the user noticing.
Successful customers constantly send feed- back on potential improvement ideas to manage operations more efficiently.
Ideas with the highest impact to Pro- Manage customers are implemented. ProManage has 130+ dedicated engineer- ing employees to improve the ProManage solution.
Adopting a digital manufacturing solution can be daunting for the company and the employees as such systems are complex and multi-faceted. This requires a transformation in company culture; if not done right, it can fail. Many smart manufacturing systems, Manufacturing Execution Systems, or ERPs have failed in the past simply because they underestimated or ignored the cultural transformation or human aspect of those implementations.
At ProManage, we provide manufacturers, both SMEs and large enterprises, with a step by step-by-step approach to digitalization. This phased approach to digitalization starts simple and progressively adds new functionality as the company culture matures in digitalization.
The system has operator interfaces to share real-time data and production status, mismatches, and problems with the operator in real-time. The system invites ope- rators and technicians to the digital transformation to provide benefits to be more successful in the production and direct them in real-time to obtain desired results.
