🏭 MES Production Tracking System

A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) simulation project built with Java, Spring Boot, MySQL, and REST APIs to demonstrate core manufacturing execution and shop-floor production tracking concepts.

🚧 Project Status: In Development

📌 Project Overview

The MES Production Tracking System simulates how a manufacturing execution system manages and tracks production activities between enterprise systems and shop-floor operations.

The application is designed to support:

• Production Order Management
• Work Order Execution
• Equipment Status Tracking
• Material Consumption
• Product Genealogy & Traceability
• Production Status Management
• Manufacturing Data Collection
• ERP-to-MES Integration

🧩 Planned MES Modules

📋 Production Orders

Create and manage manufacturing production orders through their complete lifecycle.

Status Flow:

CREATED → RELEASED → IN_PROGRESS → COMPLETED

🔧 Work Orders

Break production orders into executable manufacturing operations and track their progress.

🏭 Equipment Tracking

Maintain equipment information and manufacturing status.

Example statuses:

RUNNING • IDLE • DOWN • MAINTENANCE

📦 Material Consumption

Record raw materials and lots consumed during production execution.

🔎 Genealogy & Traceability

Associate raw-material lots with production orders and finished-product lots to provide manufacturing traceability.

🔗 ERP–MES Integration

Simulate production-order communication between an ERP system and MES using REST APIs.

🌐 Planned REST APIs

POST   /api/production-orders
GET    /api/production-orders
GET    /api/production-orders/{id}

PUT    /api/production-orders/{id}/release
PUT    /api/production-orders/{id}/start
PUT    /api/production-orders/{id}/complete

POST   /api/work-orders
GET    /api/work-orders

POST   /api/material-consumption

GET    /api/genealogy/{productionOrderId}

GET    /api/equipment
PUT    /api/equipment/{id}/status
