Case Study: Ponsse improves forest machinery quality and production efficiency with Solita’s modern MES

Ponsse modernizes MES to produce over 1,000 forest harvesters a year with Solita

Ponsse, a global leader in manufacturing forest machinery, faced the challenge of replacing its outdated manufacturing execution system (MES). The company required a modern, flexible solution to manage its complex production processes and could not use a standard off-the-shelf product. Solita was selected as the partner to plan and implement a new, fully tailored MES to support Ponsse's digitalization goals.

Solita implemented a modern, cloud-based MES solution with a hybrid architecture, leveraging technologies like Microsoft Azure. This human-first approach resulted in more effective production standards, a significant reduction in errors, and higher-quality products for Ponsse's customers. The solution provided real-time data collection and reporting capabilities, enabling operational excellence and a just-in-time inventory system. As a strategic partner, Solita helped establish a firm foundation for Ponsse's future digital business and operations.
