Case Study: BNL boosts global production visibility and productivity with Epicor Mattec MES

BNL Selects Epicor Mattec MES to Increase Visibility Across International Locations

BNL, founded in 1970, is a global leader in specialist plastic bearings with manufacturing sites in the UK and Thailand and more than 200 employees. Its growth was constrained by limited visibility across international production and time-consuming, manual data compilation that undermined reporting accuracy and workflow transparency.

BNL implemented Epicor Mattec MES, seamlessly integrated with its existing ERP to provide a single, real-time data source. The system eliminated manual entry, improved reporting accuracy and OEE visibility, increased operating efficiency and productivity across both sites, added machine‑down alerts to reduce downtime, and paved the way for further automation with planned SPC.
