Factelligence(TM) is an MES solution designed to assist manufacturers with improved production management and visibility. Within its core module set, Factelligence offers full tracking of production transactions, WIP moves, labor and machine time and quality data collection.

The contract with Metalsa also represents a significant triumph for CIMNET with its new subscription pricing model. In April 2004, CIMNET introduced an alternative method of procuring its MES software by allowing end users to "subscribe" to specific functions within the suite on a yearly basis. Customers have the ability to choose specific modules desired and the total number of concurrent users required for their implementation. Once modules and users have been identified, customers have the ability to purchase yearly licenses which includes software maintenance and support versus buying a "perpetual" license.

"We are very pleased with the initial reaction to our subscription model," stated Jason Dietrich, Vice President of CIMNET. "We believe we can help companies achieve their desired return on investment by lowering the cost of entry and allowing a scalable implementation. With Metalsa, their goals are to grow their user base over time and implement our solution to a number of manufacturing lines and facilities. The subscription approach has enabled Metalsa to meet their desired goals now and in the future."

"In addition, the sales to South Bend Controls and Hutchinson Industries are important wins for CIMNET due to the industries they serve and the planned use of the Factelligence offering," continued Dietrich. "In both cases, these companies recognize that they require additional shop floor visibility and improved work flow. We have been serving the discrete marketplace since our company was founded twenty years TWENTY YEARS. The lapse of twenty years raises a presumption of certain facts, and after such a time, the party against whom the presumption has been raised, will be required to prove a negative to establish his rights.
