ERP SOLUTIONS WORK FOR THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

ERP systems simplify the management of various business processes, including production, assembly, sales, and bill of materials (BOM) management. Manufacturers using ERP solutions can seamlessly store and manage BOM data, such as BOM numbers, descriptions, warehouses, and item compositions. They can also record per-item quantities, production issue methods, prices, and comments at each level of the BOM. When adding a BOM to purchase, production, or sales orders within an ERP system, pricing and quantities are automatically recorded for both the final product and its components.

BOM information can easily be incorporated into production orders, automatically considering item availability, warehouse location, and issue methods. Additionally, ERP systems enable the storage of production due dates, facilitating production scheduling using alerts management features.

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) within ERP software allows businesses to plan material requirements for complex, multilevel production processes. Users can employ MRP tools to create planning scenarios, defining parameters such as planning horizons, items, and data sources. These scenarios can be saved and reused for subsequent planning phases, enhancing efficiency. The MRP functionality in ERP systems automatically generates production and purchase orders required to manufacture final products in specified quantities and timelines.

Manufacturing ERP Software Streamlines Production & Planning

Manage Material Requirements For Multilevel Production Processes

Manage material requirements for multilevel production processes; create manufacturing resource planning scenarios to forecast demand and generate automatic replenishment orders to avoid production material shortages.

  • Production & Demand Planning Forecasts
    • Intelligent Forecasting
      • Use statistical methods to analyze past data and provide estimations for demand based on historical trends. For example, seasonal peaks which recur annually lead the forecast to suggest higher demand for these periods
      • Intelligent forecast offers users a graphical user interface to visualize the information in your specified range. These charts and interfaces help the user to understand information briefly while being able to manipulate the data in real-time
    • Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
      • Build your production run automatically based on forecast or demand
      • Manage your inventory stock levels with purchasing recommendations timed to your preferred stock levels

What our customers say

Bruce Goldsmith, Family Owner, Baronet Coffee

Bruce Goldsmith, Family Owner

“Anyone you tell that you’re going to a new ERP system, they all give you that ‘pained look.’ To think that we’re on a year from when we did discovery to now three months into our live implementation, and all we’re working on is some fine-tuning. Some of these fine-tuning tasks are those little things that make our life so much easier, but this wasn’t what I expected when we went live because people told me so many horror stories. I was thankful for the effort on both Softengine and Baronet teams.”

Denise Ost, Chief Operating Officer, Goodwill Industries, San Joaquin Valley

The good news is that SAP Business One's Sales Analysis capabilities enabled us to evaluate the results of that campaign and then make adjustments for future promotions. Specifically, we can check the number of transactions, discount levels and net gain or loss per promotion and per location. We have to be very careful with how we spend our precious marketing dollars and the new system gives us the tools to optimize our investment in that area.

Jason Dugan, CFO, Trudeau Distributing Company

Softengine has been a key contributor to our rollout of SAP Business One. The company's consultants were excellent and helped ensure that we had a successful implementation.

Leonard Kang, Operations Manager, Christopher Lena

We decided to find a partner we could put our trust in. Softengine is very experienced and systemized in its approach. We were very confident we’d made the right choice. Small businesses might be intimidated by SAP software. What they don’t realize is that SAP offers solutions designed specifically for small to midsize companies like ours.

Ray Lacorte, VP of Operations, Choice Organic Teas

We feel like we are in great hands with Softengine and the SAP Business One system they installed. It’s nice to finally put all those unreliable ERP systems and redundant procedures in the rear-view mirror.

Justin Ku, Administration & Operations Coordinator, Swabplus

The Softengine team was able to tailor SAP Business One to deliver all the traceability Swabplus needed, including all the applicable reports. Softengine enhanced the core system to enable creation of new batch numbers if components don’t already have them and the option of batch-costing. They also added fields for escalation dates, expiration dates and additional inspection data (e.g., who inspected and when), which could be incorporated into each Certificate of Analysis.

Virginia J. Gregorian, COO, Turbo Wholesale Tires

Our experience with Softengine has been extremely positive. Any time we call for assistance, they always assign someone who’s highly professional and gets the job done quickly. Interestingly enough, I’ve become so much more educated about IT-related matters since working with the Softengine team on this project. Every time we need to upgrade the system, they walk me though all the steps to make sure that I completely understand what’s happening, which contributes to the overall success of the upgrade. It’s been a pleasure to work with them.
