Real-time Workflow Simplified Production for ETO Manufacturers
Real-time data automates workflow management for processes used
by engineer- and made-to-order manufacturers. Chuck Stewart,
Executive Vice President with Encompix ETO ERP software noted,
"Workflow Management simplifies production. Based on their
security clearance, Encompix offers employees real-time data
they can use to perform daily tasks. Encompix has been designed
around the expected workflow of engineer-to-order and
make-to-order manufacturers, making it simpler for people to
perform normal business processes."
Specific benefits: * Once the job BOM is established the
engineers have the option to release the BOM to purchasing. *
The parts become immediately available to the buyer so he can
place the purchase order. * Upon receipt of the purchased goods,
those goods flagged for inspection divert immediately to the
inspector's "What Do I Need to Inspect Today?" screen. *
Material is either assigned to WIP or inventory or immediately
returned to the vendor.
In addition to the real time foundation, Encompix provides an
"Alert Messaging System," to facilitate communication among
users throughout the work flow process. Encompix includes many
standard alerts that may be activated for one or more users of
the system. Additional alerts can be setup and customized to
specific workflow tasks.
Encompix (www.encompix.com) has filled the manufacturing
software requirements of Engineer-to-Order companies since 1992.
The company name reflects the commitment to developing business
application solutions that encompass the complex areas of
project-based and job-based manufacturing. Encompix provides ETO
manufacturers with a competitive advantage by improving bottom
line results.
According to Thomas R. Cutler, spokesperson for the ETO
Institute (www.etoinstitute.org), "Encompix continues to capture
significant marketshare in the ETO environment because few other
ERP vendors truly understand the nuances and significant
distinctions of the ETO process versus the repetitive
manufacturing process. Encompix now has more than 200 of the
leading ETO manufacturing firms in North America using their ERP
Software solution."
