The advanced planning and scheduling (APS) module synchronizes work sites, inventory, resources, and supply alongside any orders that come through. Your ERP is doing a lot of work for you, allowing for an accurate, evidence-based promise date, fewer delays, and better use of resources.

Cost-Effective

Because it is already designed for the manufacturing industry, you do not need to worry about endless customizations, saving money with every tweak you don’t have to do. With a cloud-based deployment, your organization saves on hardware and infrastructure costs, as it becomes handled by the vendor instead of in-house. Add in the cost savings you will gain from a leaner manufacturing environment, and the potential to make more money with better customer service and product offerings, and you’re coming out ahead.
