Vitality and high competition are the hallmarks of manufacturing. Therefore, companies in the industry must have integrated business solutions, including ERP software, to improve efficiency, reduce costs, increase sales, and provide the basis for strategic decisions. Manufacturing companies must be able to respond quickly to unpredictable changes in market forces and demand.

In order to survive in the market, manufacturers should be able to change the production process in a short period of time while minimizing quality and production losses. ERP technology enhances operational fluency and data visibility by linking key business aspects, including operations, reporting, monitoring, sales, finance, and accounting. The use of a single database can help improve business agility by adopting real-time production and lean manufacturing capabilities. Here are the main ways for manufacturing companies to use ERP software to enhance agility and visibility.

Flexible production planning

Agile manufacturers can identify based on the ability of market demand to change rapidly between products and production operations. ERP software provides scheduling technology that enables manufacturing companies to handle unexpected orders. The functions of these planning technologies include capacity planning, material requirements planning (MRP) and work management.

Respond quickly to market conditions

ERP software can provide real-time data for manufacturing companies to help better estimate, plan and adapt to changing market conditions. Decision makers guide decision-making through regular system-generated reports to help them gain an in-depth understanding of customers' buying trends and market needs. Improved data visibility is also critical to reducing forecasting errors that may have a negative impact on profitability. In addition, the ability to access the organization's key performance indicators (KPI), including sales reports, is critical to consistency in pursuing established goals and developing necessary internal actions. Finally, it also helps to optimize the company's day-to-day operations.

Automatic manufacturing capacity

ERP software is critical for automating functions and processes that do not require human intervention. The use of manual tracking may hinder agility in the production process because it is prone to repetitive work and errors. With ERP software, manufacturing companies can use their scarce human resources for key activities such as innovation, product design and sales.

Improve customer satisfaction

Accurate production planning, simplified process planning, well-coordinated distribution channels and improved inventory control play an important role in enabling manufacturers to improve product delivery on time, which is an important performance indicator. Timely delivery of products to customers is very important to improve customer satisfaction. ERP software can provide real-time data for decision makers to view inventory levels anytime, anywhere.

ERP's contribution to customization

Most small and medium-sized companies are pursuing agility so that they can meet the needs of many customers with specialized products and short production cycles. ERP software helps customize products by simplifying and closely monitoring the manufacturing process. If necessary, you can replace any components that are not interchangeable in the process with custom products.
