Process Manufacturing ERP Capabilities That Future-Proof Performance and Profitability
Percentage and Ingredient Formulation
When creating new formulas and recipes, it can be necessary to use percentages of each raw material. A solution that supports setting up formulas with user-defined calculations and automatic recalculations ensures you’ll protect the integrity of your recipes.
Mixed Units of Measure
Each day your organization manages different units of measure for raw ingredients—from purchasing and stocking to production and sales. Having a solution that is capable of converting between different measurement units is imperative for process manufactures.
Batch Routing Notes
The production floor follows detailed recipes and instructions for mixing ingredients to achieve consistency and quality for the finished goods. With the ability to instantly access manufacturing notes and route steps in our process manufacturing ERP software, colleagues are equipped with the right information to complete production.
Scalability
The ability to scale a formulation up or down to match any batch and production run size, ensures resources are fully utilized. So you can optimize everything from raw ingredients to machine capacity without affecting the quality of your finished goods.
