Providing independent business systems advice to manufacturing companies
We have
extensive experience in assisting manufacturing companies in many
different product areas. Our manufacturing sector team have helped deliver
forward looking technology driven business systems to a broad
cross-section of manufacturing and engineering companies.
Working with the EEF (Engineering Employers
Federation) and MAS (Manufacturing Advisory Service) enables us to keep
abreast of the latest issues affecting manufacturing companies.
Long gone are the days when a manufacturing
company produced its products, stored them in the warehouse and waited
for the orders to come flooding in. Now competition and the need to
make the most of available resources dictates that businesses must become
more efficient and at the same time flexible in order to meet new demands, ensuring
quality is maintained at all times.
Whether you you make to stock, assemble to
order, configure to order or make to contract, the key to enhanced
efficiency and productivity is the use of a fully functional manufacturing
system.
Key areas where manufacturing systems can
provide competitive advantage include:
contact management & marketing estimating and quotation processing product configurator master production scheduling (MPS) material requirements planning (MRP) contract control e-procurement and supplier
collaboration vendor rating just-in-time supply works order processing and status
reporting bill of materials parts and engineering change control integrated accounting and cost
control.
