Case Study: Tree Top achieves plant-wide real-time visibility with Inductive Automation and Kanoa MES

Tree Top builds a plant-at-a-glance MES with Inductive Automation across 11 Ignition servers

Tree Top, a farmer-owned food and beverage manufacturer, faced a challenge in gaining actionable insights from the vast amount of data collected across its six complex facilities. They needed a unified, real-time view of operations to make efficient, data-driven decisions and turned to vendor Inductive Automation and its Ignition platform to implement a new MES system.

Inductive Automation, alongside systems integrator CedarTech, implemented the Kanoa MES solution built on Ignition. This provided Tree Top with a "plant at a glance" view, enabling them to track key metrics like OEE and downtime confidently. The results included a shift to data-driven decision-making, more targeted capital investments, and the ability to quickly calculate ROI on new equipment.
