When you need ERP for manufacturing

With a tailored enterprise resource planning solution, we help you address multiple concerns, including:

  • Time-consuming management and control of core business processes (inventory, production schedules, procurement) via disjoint software apps.
  • Multiple inefficiencies and issues, rooting from the lack of visibility into manufacturing operations and business performance.
  • Ineffective business decisions and departments operating in silos as a result of data inconsistency and communication bottlenecks.
  • Unproductiveness of your current software applications due to the lack of functionality to support existing business processes, absence of vendor support, knowledge gap, or poor user experience.
  • Inability to spot and act on new revenue opportunities due to manual workflows and lack of time.
  • Failure to meet regulatory requirements due to slow and error-prone manual data entry and aggregation.

Generic ERP vs manufacturing ERP

When choosing the best ERP fit for your company, you should decide whether to go for a generic business management ERP platform (sometimes referred to as a tier-one ERP system) or choose an ERP for manufacturing (tier-two ERP software). The main differences between the two are as follows:

Licensing fee

  • Production planning and management
  • Inventory and supply chain management
  • Quality management

Manufacturing ERP: an adoption guide

Manufacturing ERP: an adoption guide

Integrations extend the ERP functionality, increase collaboration between different teams, eliminate duplicate data entry, and build cross-functional efficiency. We set up custom integration solutions or use ready-to-use connectors to integrate the ERP software with your current technology environment, including:

Manufacturing execution system

Integrating manufacturing floor data with other information, such as customer demand or actual inventory levels, helps manufacturers be more responsive to customer demand, make instant production adjustments, and facilitate just-in-time deliveries.

Enterprise asset management

Tracking and measuring asset performance helps plan procurement and replacement activities, accurately allocate physical assets to production activities, and devise effective asset management strategies for overall equipment.

Computerized maintenance management system

Streamlining equipment maintenance activities, generating accurate equipment maintenance schedules, and calculating overall equipment effectiveness could maximize equipment lifespan and manufacturing productivity.

Finance & accounting software

Consolidating accurate financial and operational data helps better manage daily finances, make data-driven decisions, track job costs, and increase the accuracy of financial forecasts.

Customer relationship management software

CRM integration adds visibility to material, production, and shipping costs and allows quick and accurate estimations. It automatically converts customer requests into work orders, tracks them, and communicates their statuses.

BI & analytics

Business intelligence modules facilitate reporting and analytics capabilities company-wide, querying multidimensional data across the department for real-time decisions, alerts, and notifications.
