Select the right ERP system for manufacturing company


Select the right ERP system for manufacturing company

When a manufacturing company plans an enterprise system implementation, the primary motivations are business transformation, Business process harmonization and the technology upgrade which ultimately does the replacement of the legacy system.

With the business transformation the aim of the top management is to undertake changes at the top line or bottom line of its Business process . Business process harmonization is a business transformation exercise but at a scale where the objective is to generate process benefits and a smooth activities across the organization.

Technology upgrade is process Initiated by the IT organization to replace the legacy system with the latest technology product or service with similar functionality and reduce application management costs and total cost of ownership.

In this change over exercises the primary question that Decision makers often face is whether to develop a custom solution or implement a packaged solution. While there are complex and unique business scenarios that merit the development of custom solutions, most orga­nizations will benefit from a packaged enterprise systems solution for various reasons

The reasons why the companies choose for a packaged ERP Solution like eresource is the system is more user-friendly, economical, scalable and flexible. Being a Web-based application the implementation process also much easier than the traditional ERP package s.

Other important points that are considered when it comes to ERP package s like eresource is it is easily adopted industry best practices. It is also well proven and stable with better system documentation. Having its own upgrade roadmap it is also a system that is easier and cheaper to maintain with readily available round the clock customer assistance.

As there is a myriad of ERP appli­cation packages available in the market with a range of deployment options, selection of right ERP package a complex exercise. It is a fact that cannot be denied. Moreover most ERP package s claim to offer comprehensive, but similar, functionality.

There is no harm if Decision makers are given little more sleeping time to decide the selection of the right ERP package for their organization. Selecting an inappropriate ERP package is like inviting troubles. An ERP System that is not a right fit tends to weigh down the entire organization. Wrong selection of an ERP package s can compromise security and audit requirements and have a debilitating effect on employee morale.

We have come across some cases where companies spending substantial amounts of time and money on ERP Implementation s only to realize that a different ERP System would have been a better fit. On the other hand we would like to emphasize the fact that once a right ERP package is implemented it can bring handsome benefits to the organization. When implemented effectively, ERP can improve alignment of processes with organiza­tional strategy, reduce costs and improve pro­ductivity.

What are the necessary skills, knowledge and attitude an ERP manager should have?


An ERP Manager must have the ability to exercise overall day-to-day control of project leaders and the resources of the program, balancing the needs for program success with the skills and capabilities of the staff. He should also be a good communicator and must interact regularly and comfortably across various departments -- from individual to the ERP Management Team level in order to negotiate solutions that foster strong relationships and continued success of the project.

The ERP Manager is responsible for the development of an effective planning process, for the creation of an integrated project schedule that encompasses all aspects for the ERP Program and for the actual execution in conformance to plans and the continuing update and adjustment of plans and execution to fit changing circumstances.

Implement and lead an effective project change management process that pro-actively identifies project changes and incorporates an appropriate impact analysis and approval for such changes across the ERP program team. He is responsible for creating and maintaining a monthly financial management process that incorporates actual financial performance to forecasted performance and justifies all variances; accurately forecasts expenditures in alignment with the project budget and supports the budgeting process throughout the project lifecycle. He also must follow the company's financial processes and policies.

Actively directs the development and maintenance of plans, practices and assignments to identify, quantify and contain the occurrence and potential impact of risks and risk events on the execution of a program and its likelihood of success.

An ERP Manager is responsible for making timely, effective decision at the project level and communicating those decisions both up and down the program structure, while approaching needed decisions in a logical and thoughtful manner and weighing conflicting information.

Leadership quality including the ability to motivate, inspire, counsel and facilitate individuals and teams to take responsibility and accountability for the goals will be an added advantage.

ERP for Batch Manufacturing

ERP for Batch Manufacturing

WHEN a product is made from a formula or recipe in a standard run or lot size determined by vessel size or standard run length it is the known as batch manufacturing. Pharmaceuticals, food processing, Fermented beverages and paint industries are some some of industrial segments that are following the batch manufacturing process.

Apart from these segments batch production is also common in bakeries, manufacturing of sports shoes and adhesives. In the manufacture of inks and paints, a technique called a colour-run is used. A colour-run is where one manufactures the lightest colour first, such as light yellow followed by the next increasingly darker colour such as orange, then red and so on until reaching black and then starts over again. This minimizes the cleanup and reconfiguring of the machinery between each batch. The chemical, tire, and process industry segment uses a combination of batch and process manufacturing depending the product and plant.

The objective for batch manufacturing is to process work orders with a batch quantity that corresponds to a batch bill of material and to use these orders for MRP processing. Just as the bill type uniquely defines a bill of material, you can use the batch quantity with bill type to further define a unique bill.

In the batch manufacturing method some restrictions on capacity determine the size of the batch produced. For example, you might need to fill the vats to a certain level for the process to perform properly. Addition to this the system specifically defines the component quantities for the batch.
