ERP Best Practices
Implementing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is not just about subscribing to software and pushing buttons. ERP is designed to support management best practices for controlling and optimizing the processes required for manufacturing and distribution.
For example, many ERP systems include a Material Requirements Planning (MRP) function. An MRP software system helps businesses plan and manage their production processes and inventory levels, which means calculating how much raw material and finished goods are needed to meet customer demand. An MRP system can also help with scheduling, inventory control, and cost reduction. However, before relying on the MRP system’s advice, it’s necessary to ensure accuracy of inventory and bill of material, vendor lead times, min-max levels, and other data points. Attivo can provide the training required to leverage these advanced tools and ensure your team is fully using every facet of the system effectively.
