Simple. Scalable. Yours to Configure.

SparkMES by Flexware Innovation, built on Ignition, helps manufacturers kickstart their MES journey.

Our scalable modular packages accelerate time to value and 'right size' your MES compared to building from scratch or customizing behemoth platforms. Flexware configures, integrates, and deploys SparkMES for your operation. Once live, it’s yours to manage, configure, and expand at your pace.

Pricing is determined by the size and scope of the project and the packages selected for implementation.
