ERP for make-to-order environment

ERP for make-to-order environment

WorkPLAN Enterprise is a new generation ERP system designed for custom manufacturers and companies that work on a project or engineer-to-order basis. A successor to WorkPLAN, WorkPLAN Enterprise offers complete functionality and tools to meet the specific requirements of the mould, die, tool, model, pattern, prototype and special machine making industries. The system combines ease of use with industry best practice, eliminating the complexity often associated with ERP systems. WorkPLAN Enterprise brings together the functions often carried out by disparate software packages, unifying quotation, purchasing, stock, planning, sales processing, quality, time and performance management into a single ERP system. The user-friendly interface is common for all modules and enables the integration of tasks, and elimination of duplicate data entry. The result is greater visibility across the whole manufacturing process, allowing companies to be more reactive and operate at optimum efficiency. By completely re-engineering the original software and basing it on a MySQL database, Sescoi has developed an ERP system with faster operation, greater reliability and an open structure capable of linking with external systems. Popular Microsoft Office products such as MS Excel , MS Word and MS Project, CAD & CAM systems, accounting packages and other ERP systems can all interface with WorkPLAN Enterprise, maximising customers’ investment in existing software and minimising implementation effort through the capture and reuse of existing knowledge.
