Let’s be real: if anyone knows how much power your plant eats for breakfast, lunch, and overtime dinner… It’s you. As a plant manager, you’re juggling machines, teams, output targets, and—somehow—those “urgent” requests from upstairs asking, “Why are our energy costs so high?”
Good news: with Epicor Advanced MES + Energy Monitoring, you can finally control your plant’s energy consumption, cut costs without sacrificing performance, and make those reports to the C-suite actually enjoyable (well, almost).
Your Plant’s Energy Isn’t Invisible—You Just Need the Right Tools

With Epicor Advanced MES, you get a real-time, web-based system that tracks energy usage like a hawk—and not just electricity, but air, gas, and more. You’ll finally see where the waste is happening and what it’s really costing you.
