Manufacturing Enterprise Solutions Association (MESA) International is a not-for-profit organization of manufacturers and information system providers focused on leveraging technology in order to achieve business goals. Founded over ten years ago, the organization named a new board of directors in late 2003 and is rededicating itself to the unique needs of manufacturing end users. The organization is a community of manufacturing end-users, system integrators, hardware and software suppliers and consultants, all focused on improving the health and agility of the manufacturing production system. MESA provides a variety of programs and events that work together to help manufacturers:
  Understand what is possible in terms of improving profitability, agility, and customer satisfaction
  See what other manufacturers have done to be successful
  Learn how to approach investment decisions in technology and how to be more successful with technology deployment MESA’s membership program and events present to manufacturing businesses the best practices used to solve critical problems within their corporation and those that extend to their suppliers, customers, and partners. As members, both manufacturers and information system providers benefit from working together on solving critical business issues and furthering the state of the industry in the use of integrated information systems. MESA promotes the exchange of best-practices, strategies and innovation in managing manufacturing operations, manufacturing quality and in achieving plant-floor execution excellence.
