Transparent ERP solution for mechanical engineering
In mechanical engineering it´s important to produce efficient and in constant quality. Futher there are numerous regulatory requirements regarding safety requirements (such as ISO standards) that service providers in mechanical engineering must comply with. Efficient management of the company, however, is often much more difficult, because usually each division has its own single solution in use and no uniform database exists.
This is where the ERP system for mechanical engineering comes into play: it takes all these points into account and, in addition, makes it possible to exploit all the benefits of modern Industry 4.0 and digitization. Automated processes, real-time reporting, predictive maintenance, improved quality management, and detailed enterprise metrics take your business to the next level of digital transformation. With SAP B1 and Beas Manufacturing, you save time and money, both in production and in the supply chain. Of course, the software grows together with your company, because the modular structure allows the expansion of the functionality even during or after the implementation phase.
The ERP system in special machine construction
For special machine construction with single and small series production are entirely different requirements on an ERP system needed, than in regular mechanical engineering. When manufactured to customer specifications, the company must be able to respond quickly and efficiently to customer requirements, as well as provide unrestricted flexibility combined with the greatest possible control and transparency.
The combination of SAP Business One and the additional functions of Beas Manufacturing can entirely map the business processes in special machine construction and sustainably increase productivity in production. The top priority is to optimize existing resources for maximized production output, reduce setup time and meet customer requirements. In addition, material availability and capacity can be scheduled together with Beas Manufacturing APS to calculate the delivery date while effectively planning a large number of production orders.
At the same time, you keep an eye on all the phases of a project - from the design through the prototype and the production to the customer acceptance - centrally visible in one place - of course together with the budget and the cost control.
Shorten set-up times in metalworking
The metalworking industry faces many challenges: the exhaustion of high-quality raw materials, increasingly complex supply chains, international trade agreements and conventions, or the shortage of skilled staff are just a few. With the growing amount of production resources such as machinery, materials, manpower, and tools, and the increasing complexity of parts lists, guaranteeing accurate customer delivery dates also becomes a major challenge. It is therefore all the more important to re-evaluate your own company and to use optimization opportunities in order to remain competitive.
For example, with a suitable metalworking ERP system, you can improve your company's resource planning, reduce setup times, quickly calculate product costs and selling prices for a more accurate quotation. Additionally it´s possible to monitor your business performance in real time at any time and manage easily external subcontractors from planning through production to distribution. The reduction of excess inventory and the achievement of quality standards are possibilities of an ERP system for metalworking companies. With SAP Business One and the add-on Beas Manufacturing, they remain flexible at all times and, if necessary, simply extend the functional scope with additional modules.
Reliable ERP solution for the packaging industry
In the packaging industry, there are as well numerous official regulations and ISO standards, which must be guaranteed by quality management along the entire supply chain. At the same time, the packaging should be produced inexpensively, at the right time in the right place and meet the latest industry standards.
The ERP system for the packaging materials must therefore be able to ensure efficient production with low storage costs and efficient supply chain management (SCM), as well as enable effective risk management. The system should respond to new standards and legal requirements in an uncomplicated and timely manner, and trends and technical changes must be quickly implemented so that your company remains competitive.
SAP Business One and Beas Manufacturing represent a highly efficient system solution for the packaging industry. With centralized process control, convenient costing per item, Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) and many other features, entrepreneurs can optimize productivity, save production costs and stay flexible react to new requirements.
