Functional Reasons for a New Manufacturing ERP System
There are lots of reasons that might make you consider implementing a new manufacturing ERP system.
If you're having problems with the following functionality situations than it is definitely time for new ERP
software that better fits your needs.
Does your existing ERP software solution 'solve' your business needs?
Maybe it wasn't even a good solution to begin with, and efforts to make it fit your needs have been less than successful. It may have out-dated features or lack the capacity that you now need to run your growing business.
Has your business grown and developed new processes? Does your manufacturing ERP solution address them?
Time passes and business grows, which means that new needs can develop. Capacity and output increases and new products and workflows are added to handle them. If your old software doesn't handle the complexity of the new production, purchasing, and inventory management processes, or help you be competitive in attracting new business and customers, then it's time for a new system.
Are your users doing most of the work outside of your current ERP solution?
If your users are spending most of their time developing solutions and processes outside of your ERP software or even not including the software, then the software is not doing the job. In addition, these user created processes can lead to inaccurate data as the data is stored in multiple locations. You won't know which information is the right information or if any of it is right! Not to mention the loss in user efficiency as they have to keep up with several iterations of the same information.
Does your software make it difficult to see and analyze your data the way you need to see it? Do you have to combine the information from several places manually?
Being able to view and analyze your information the way your business needs to see it is extremely important when you are trying to figure out your customer trends and manufacturing needs and in gaining new customers.
Can the appropriate people see your data in real time?
Synchronization and centralization of your data is vital when business partners, suppliers, and distributors outside of your company need to see that very data in real time. In this day and age, companies require a manufacturing and distribution ERP solution with a robust data integration software.
