Solid as a rock. Since 1992 we've weathered the ups and downs of the ERP and MES industry. manex continues to flourish because we have maintained our singular focus on the EMS industry.

At manex, our litmus test is determined by the ability to adapt to the changing business environment of the EMS industry, from their customers to compliances and government regulations: Does manex provide a relevant ERP and MES system that can cater to our customers’ needs and stand the test of time?

manex's sole focus is the EMS industry. Our integrated ERP, MES, and EQS system is not for a general company crossing multiple industries. Our background is from the EMS industry, and our advantage comes from applying our industry knowledge and specialties to the ins and out of the complex EMS business.

We understand that the EMS company needs a system that’s user friendly while maintaining complex details for the system to perform tasks. That’s why CUBE was designed from the ground up using EMS terminology. We help to prevent errors and assist in making decisions by offering AI-based suggestions. Our ERP and MES will help knowledgeable workers navigate the complex world of electronic contract manufacturing in new and powerful ways. manex has an intuitive design that makes sense.

With thousands of daily users in our system, we have big plans at manex, centered around continued improvement of our software and new and better ways to support our customers. Our goal is to stay relevant by providing the best possible ERP, MES, and EQS manufacturing software system for the EMS industry.

Our History

In the late 1970s, our founder started an EMS company that grew to a business of 150 employees by 1987. Frustrated with the lack of software tailored to the needs of the EMS industry, he hired a group of developers to begin working on an internal system that would enable more automation and efficiency for his company. Through this effort, the company saw great success and grew to over 350 employees.  

Seeing the need for such a software in the EMS industry at large, our founder sold his business and founded manex in 1992.  

From day one, the goal of manex has been to provide a system tailored for EMS companies and EMS companies only.

Over the past several decades, our software has gone through a multitude of changes based on customer feedback and our founder’s extensive knowledge of the EMS industry, resulting at last in our most innovative and LM2-friendly software iteration, CUBE.   

CUBE was designed to automate manual tasks, lower material and labor costs, provide top-notch cybersecurity protection, allow for easy maintenance of compliances and regulations, and overall make users more efficient and productive. Our goal was not just to improve SCM or MES, but to help the entire business through the principles of lean manufacturing—which we built right into our system.
