Manufacturing comes in many forms – make for stock, make to customer order, make standard product, make product that is customised to the customers needs or bespoke Project work that differs every time.
Umbrella ERP Software has all the functions required to properly control every aspect of your Stock and Costing.
To meet the demands of your customer you need Manufacturing Software that will tie your Supply Chain together – from Financials, to Procurement of Material, Spares and Sub-Contracted Services, to Production Planning to Works Order control and supply to the customer – including on-site commissioning if that is required.
Be it a unique customer Project or a Standard Product with a multi-level Bill of Material, it is vital to cost every Job or Production Order to ensure you are keeping to your budgeted cost and track any production variances caused by material losses, scrap and excess labour. Program Management is supported by Variance Reports showing Management exactly if any problems are occurring.
Raw Material Stock, Components and Spares are a large burden on your Balance Sheet. Material Requirements Planning ensures that you have the material and resources needed in time for production – too late and customer service suffers, too early and you tie up excess capital.
Complex customer requirements need Projects to control the different stages of the Customer Job. From Engineering Design to Procurement to Contracting your own and external resources to Management up to Commissioning and Customer Approval, Project Close and final payment – you need software to manage every stage of the Project. Costing Software is vital to track Budget, Actuals, Variances and cost to Complete.
