Europe Manufacturing Execution System Market Analysis

A manufacturing execution system (MES) monitors, tracks, documents, and manages the manufacturing process, from raw materials to finished products. This software plays a key role in handling work orders, checking product quality, monitoring machine performance, and collecting data throughout the production process. It acts as a link between ERP and process control systems, giving decision-makers the information they need to make the plant floor more efficient.

Europe Manufacturing Execution System Market Overview

An MES software is used to manage, monitor, and coordinate the real-time physical processes and personnel involved in the conversion of raw materials into intermediate and/or completed commodities. It provides actionable data that assists manufacturing decision-makers in understanding how to optimize plant floor operating conditions to increase production output. MES software serves as a bridge between PLM, ERP systems (IT), and machines (OT). This software layer improves the efficiency and quality of the production process, resulting in greater productivity and profitability.

Europe Manufacturing Execution System Market Drivers and Opportunities

Manufacturing Industries Embrace Digital Transformation

In Europe, manufacturing sectors are embracing digital transformation to enhance productivity, optimize operational efficiency, lower costs, and increase market share through innovation in products and processes. In the automotive industry, electric and hybrid vehicles are driving a fundamental shift. In the consumer-packaged goods (CPG) sector, companies are facing stricter regulatory compliance requirements. Meanwhile, the aerospace industry is focusing on enhancing productivity and performance amid a challenging business landscape. Smart manufacturing solutions are becoming crucial in navigating these evolving dynamics. These solutions optimize key capabilities, enabling seamless digital integration from configuration to order through dispatch, enhancing production visibility, improving scheduling, ensuring traceability, providing advanced analytics, and promoting energy efficiency and waste reduction. Due to these advantages, manufacturing companies and governments are investing in digital transformation. A few instances are given below.

  • In February 2025, the EU launched the InvestAI fund for mobilizing €200 billion (US$ 208.4 billion) into artificial intelligence, revolutionizing the European automotive manufacturing sector. This initiative seeks to foster automation, digitalization, and the development of next-generation production systems through AI-driven gigafactories and smart factory technologies.
  • In December 2024, Smart manufacturing startup Quindi secured €525,000 (US$ 567,750.5) in Seed funding. Established in 2022, Quindi has created the first Production Copilot, an advanced AI solution that consolidates data from machinery, orders, and personnel to enhance production workflows.
  • According to the AG Solution Group, industrial companies allocate US$ 1.1 trillion annually to digital transformation initiatives; however, two-thirds of these organizations are still in the early phases of their digital adoption process.

As manufacturers advance their digital transformation initiatives, the demand for manufacturing execution systems (MES) is projected to rise. MES solutions equip companies with the capabilities to integrate emerging technologies, optimize operational workflows, and enhance overall productivity. MES has proven effective across sectors, including process industries, high-tech, and general manufacturing. With a large installed base and increasing reliability and maturity, MES is becoming a key enabler for developing smart manufacturing facilities, optimizing operations, and driving market expansion. Thus, the expansion of digital transformation across manufacturing industries is driving the growth of the Europe manufacturing execution system (MES) market. 

Integration With Artificial Intelligence

As Europe continues to position itself as a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI) development, advancements in AI infrastructure are expected to have far-reaching implications for industries such as manufacturing. In March 2025, the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) selected six new sites in Austria, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Poland, and Slovenia to host AI Factories, set to launch in 2026. France and Germany will establish AI Factories alongside Europe’s first exascale supercomputers, Alice Recoque and JUPITER. Austria, Bulgaria, Poland, and Slovenia will deploy AI-optimized systems. The German AI Factory in Julich will feature an experimental platform for developing and testing AI models. These six new AI Factories join seven others, forming a network to support AI startups, SMEs, and researchers with access to HPC resources, training, and expertise. The increasing integration of AI into manufacturing systems is transforming how production is managed, optimized, and scaled. Companies such as Apprentice.io are leveraging AI to enhance manufacturing operations. At the Pharma MES event in Berlin in September 2024, Apprentice.io unveiled new AI capabilities within its cloud platform aimed at optimizing manufacturing workflows, expediting batch releases, and ensuring compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Their solutions provide manufacturers with the tools necessary to enhance efficiency and reduce operational costs. Aizon, an AI SaaS provider focused on revolutionizing pharmaceutical manufacturing, introduced Aizon Execute, an innovative Electronic Batch Record (eBR) software in collaboration with Euroapi, a global leader in API manufacturing. The development of this software responds to the soaring need for data-driven, paperless manufacturing solutions. It addresses user needs by simplifying the transition to digital systems while streamlining operations.

As the AI infrastructure across Europe continues to evolve, the integration of AI into MES solutions will accelerate. The combined strength of AI Factories, such as those being established in France, Germany, and beyond, will drive a wave of digital transformation in manufacturing, fostering innovation and enhancing operational efficiency across the Europe manufacturing execution system (MES) market. The ability to harness AI for real-time data analysis, predictive maintenance, and enhanced decision-making will be crucial for manufacturers seeking to remain competitive in the evolving industrial landscape.
