Improve your business performance
Microsoft Manufacturing helps you run your business more efficiently, so you improve business performance from the shop floor to your bottom line.
Change manufacturing methods and processes instantly and easily
Microsoft Manufacturing allows you to instantly change your manufacturing methods and processes, helping you to keep up with changing customer needs. You can modify components and operations on the fly, even on released production orders.
When a change occurs, you can update and replan all materials, costs and operations simultaneously, without time-consuming batch jobs.
Multiple planning options, tracking and action messaging allow you to quickly and easily make exceptions and last-minute changes to give customers what they want, when they want it. You can plan from the sales order, the production order, the purchase requisition or by traditional MPS/MRP planning methods. Furthermore, purchase planners can easily recognise how to adjust supplier delivery schedules to take advantage of new revenue opportunities.
With Microsoft Manufacturing, you can readily change your business processes to accommodate changing workload and customer requirements. You can implement realistic plans according to your capacity demands and you can redefine:
- Order modifiers and reorder policies, as needed
- Capacity and calendars to optimise shop load
- Manufacturing policy options to adapt quickly to new projects
- Implement the most efficient processes immediately
Design efficient manufacturing processes
Microsoft Manufacturing provides powerful planning tools that give you the freedom to choose the optimum manufacturing process for ultimate profitability. For example, when planning production orders, you can plan product family orders that share the same routing. This allows you to make more efficient build schedules.To help you better meet customer demand, Microsoft Manufacturing supports efficient collaboration with long-term partners through the use of blanket orders.
Speed up orders
Microsoft Manufacturing speeds up orders by providing visibility into all aspects of your manufacturing processes. You can improve efficiency and reduce lead time by:
- Redefining setup and queue times on the fly
- Redefining capacity on the fly
- Using the send-ahead function to control material flow to the next operation
- Gain greater visibility of your business processes
- Implement without disruption - Microsoft Manufacturing can be implemented with little disruption to your current manufacturing processes. Start with a basic implementation and benefit immediately. Then, you can add value with PCS phased software implementation – expanding functionality as your business needs require it.
Microsoft Manufacturing is designed for maximum operational and setup flexibility, so that implementation time is reduced to a minimum. You can fine-tune the system while it is working and easily implement changes as your operations demand. Furthermore, you don’t need to forecast all manufacturing scenarios during setup – you can respond on the fly.
