What is a Manufacturing ERP System?

Manufacturers often encounter various challenges when managing production processes, such as procurement, finance, project management, manufacturing operations, and sales, all of which are typically handled in separate systems. This can make it difficult to gain a comprehensive view of company performance, as comparing data across multiple platforms is complex.

A manufacturing ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system consolidates these different business functions into a single platform. With one central dashboard, business leaders can easily monitor company performance, enabling faster decision-making and increased efficiency. By providing a unified source of information, manufacturing ERP systems streamline activities and processes across departments, leading to improved productivity, agility, and customer satisfaction.

Meet manufacturing targets with more streamlined inventory control, material requirements planning (MRP), and job shop floor control / manufacturing execution. Also, automate the quoting, ordering, and purchasing processes.

(MRP)Material Requirements planning

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is a system designed to help manufacturers efficiently manage production and inventory. Its primary goal is to ensure that the right materials are available at the right time to meet production demands while minimizing excess inventory. MRP calculates the materials needed based on the production schedule, current inventory levels, and lead times for procurement.

By using MRP, manufacturers can better plan production runs, reduce stock shortages, optimize ordering processes, and streamline overall operations. This results in improved resource management, cost savings, and more timely delivery of finished products.

Bills of Materials & Process Routings

Manage products that contain critical information impacting costs in both the Bill of Materials (BOM) and process routing. The system tracks items that need to be produced in specific quantities to create parent or finished goods. Additionally, it monitors item effective dates, quantity requirements, and expiry, ensuring accurate production planning and cost management. This enables precise tracking of materials and components, helping optimize resource allocation and maintain efficiency throughout the manufacturing process.

Manufacturing Order

Manage the entire process of transforming manufacturing orders into finished products. Define key details for each manufacturing order, including lead time, quantity, and status. Additionally, specify the necessary resources such as materials, work centers, run times, and setup times. By integrating this information into selected routings, you ensure efficient production, accurate resource allocation, and optimized scheduling to meet your manufacturing goals.

Scheduler

The Manufacturing Scheduler allows you to view and adjust single jobs and operations, taking into account constraints like resource or material shortages. With a visual display of jobs on the shop floor, you can interactively reschedule tasks, operations, and resources. The system gives you the flexibility to manually control rescheduling or let it automatically optimize the schedule based on resource availability and material constraints, ensuring efficient production flow and minimizing delays.

Manufacturing ERP Features

A Manufacturing ERP system offers a comprehensive suite of features designed to streamline production processes and enhance operational efficiency. It provides tools for effective production planning and scheduling, detailed management of Bills of Materials (BOM) and process routings, and precise material requirements planning (MRP). The system supports manufacturing order management, robust inventory control, and quality assurance to ensure high standards in production.

Additionally, it includes work order management, real-time shop floor control, and cost tracking for better financial oversight. Advanced reporting and analytics offer insights into performance metrics, while seamless integration with other business systems ensures a cohesive operational flow. Automation of routine tasks, supplier and procurement management, and maintenance scheduling further contribute to improved efficiency and reduced manual effort.
