Manufacturing
Manufacturing resource planning systems manage materials and inventory, plus other dynamic variables that impact production. The original MRP provided relatively static metrics, but MRP II systems go far beyond this. MRP II integrates more complex and dynamic data, such as staffing levels, machine capacity and financial data to help managers more accurately plan inventory and production scheduling.

MRP II systems manage inventory and production resources but are useful beyond basic MRP capabilities. They provide functionality within logistics, marketing and general finance. MRP II gives companies a realistic view of their operating capabilities. Manufacturing Excellence improves on that by letting companies speed up their production record process, getting product out the door faster.
No system can singlehandedly improve manufacturing operations. Even the best MRP II can only do so much. That’s where Manufacturing Excellence comes in.

Whenever data is entered by hand, there’s an opportunity for error. With Manufacturing Excellence, users have reduced their data entry errors by 90%-100%.
Manufacturing has trouble with the lingering presence of paper. Even automated lines still feature clipboards. An integrated electronic production record system completely removes paper from the shop floor.
Disconnected systems lead to disconnected departments. Integrating production records with other enterprise systems reduces the friction between quality and manufacturing, making everyone’s job easier.
