MEX CMMS Integration with Ignition
Plant events in Ignition trigger automatic work order creation in MEX, removing manual maintenance request entry.
Scope & approach
Remedy Drinks is one of Australia's fastest-growing beverage producers, known for its kombucha and low-sugar drink range. As production volumes grew, the maintenance team needed a tighter connection between the plant floor and their MEX CMMS system. Metromotion Controls designed and delivered the integration between the Ignition SCADA platform and MEX, enabling automatic work order creation from plant events and giving the maintenance team structured visibility of asset status without manual data re-entry.
What was delivered
- Plant events from Ignition triggered automatic work order creation in MEX, removing manual maintenance request entry.
- Maintenance and production teams gained a shared view of asset status and outstanding work orders from the plant floor.
- The integration reduced the gap between a fault occurring and a work order being raised and assigned.
Scope items
- Integration architecture design connecting Ignition SCADA to the MEX CMMS platform
- Automatic work order generation from PLC fault events and downtime conditions
- Asset status visibility within the SCADA environment linked to live maintenance records
- Commissioning and handover support for the maintenance and operations teams
