Integrating MRP/ERP with other data systems

View full white paper

What can you link to and what benefits can be achieved?

While MRP/ERP systems span all key departments within a business, every company will have its own collection of standalone systems that deliver specific functionality, such as CADCAM or testing.
However, linking them with MRP/ERP can deliver multiple and significant benefits.

WHAT IS COVERED:

What software should you link to an MRP system?

What are the problems with standalone systems that are not linked to your MRP system, and what benefits can you expect to achieve?

Real-world examples of MRP data exchange.

As MRP is the only system that spans virtually every area of administration, production, stores, and despatch it makes sense that it is the backbone for your data. Connecting MRP to standalone systems can reduce lead times, simplify processes and aid with quality. It is worth taking the time to see which systems within your business might allow connectivity so that you can consider what benefits might be gained.

 

 

 

 

Where multiple systems are involved, this can significantly increase the time that an audit would take, also potentially raising questions about the effectiveness of the systems in place.
