Are you a manufacturer whose business is driven by the job? Do you build to customer specifications and quote based on the customer’s prints? Do you have many different types of operations being performed on one work center? Are there many jobs on the shop floor at one time? Do schedule dates, quantity and part specifications change several times during the order cycle of a job?
If the answer to any of these questions is "yes", your business is considered a job shop or custom/make–to–order manufacturer.
Manufacturers like you require a strong emphasis on costing, scheduling and productivity to give them the flexibility and control to manage the changes their shop experiences on a daily basis. A job–based manufacturing software system that includes quoting, scheduling, job tracking, costing, purchasing, inventory, shop floor data collection, quality, performance metrics, customer relationship management, and fully integrated accounting can help increase your productivity and profitability.
- True job–based shop technology fits right into your shop’s workflow. You know what every job costs and have the ability to compare estimated to actual labor, material, and outside service costs, then isolate problem jobs while in process.
- Integrated quoting, tracking, costing and scheduling, so changes only have to be entered once and everyone in the shop is always working with the same information.
- Flexible scheduling that helps you easily deal with changes in specs and your shop’s workload and keep every job on track.
- Complete workflow management – quoting, order processing, scheduling, purchasing, labor tracking, real time data collection, quality, shipping, job costing, and integrated accounting.
- Integration to other commonly used hi–tech manufacturing software: ACT, QuickBooks, AutoCAD, Micro Estimating Microsoft Office, Great Plains, Oracle, and more.
