BLUESTREAK™ and BRIGHT AM™ MODULES
Purchase What You Need, When You Need It 

​

Bluestreak™ and Bright AM™ manufacturing software systems have made scalability possible with separate modules to choose from based on your unique business requirements. Each of the modules focuses on a different functionality to run your business from office to shop floor. As operations grow, you can continue to empower your team with tools needed for department integration, communication, and traceability by adding any additional modules anytime in the future.
 

Don’t limp along with a software system that has become stagnant and outdated. Bluestreak™ MES/QMS is the smart choice of software because of continuous new development driven by our customers’ requests for additional functionality. Because of this, new features are included in each of our monthly new software releases to keep you on the cutting edge of technology.

ERP/MRP Integration
Although MES/QMS software is used to operate as self-contained systems, they are increasingly being integrated with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) software suites. The goal of a Manufacturing Execution System is to improve productivity and reduce cycle time, the total time to complete a Work Order. By integrating QMS + MES with ERP/MRP software, production control managers can be proactive about ensuring the delivery of quality products in a timely, cost-effective manner.
