Alain Bernard: using digital technology to boost performance
The former Olympic swimming champion did us the honour of taking part in this 2023 edition through a conference on digital technology.
The European 100m record holder attaches great importance to making swimming more accessible and attractive. His talk focused mainly on this theme, but also on motivation, team spirit and performance!
A look back at the afternoon’s highlights
Conference: ERP/MES, competitors or complementary?
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) makes it possible to manage the company as a whole, integrating purchasing, sales, finance, inventory and production planning functions. ERP can also be used to manage technical data (manufacturing ranges, parts lists, etc.). MES software focuses on the factory and the production or packaging workshop, with the aim of digitising all production operations. It provides the right information, in real time, to the right person at the right time: data collection, execution traceability, recording of quantities and batches used, indicators and execution assistance, etc.
Expert talk: How do you prepare for the arrival of MES software?
Didier Chavanon (CETIM) gave a talk to help manufacturers prepare for the arrival of MES software in their plant. What are the fundamentals of an MES project, from the field audit to the drafting of specifications? What support programmes are available for SMEs? How does CETIM help companies to transform themselves through digital technology, whatever their sector of activity?
