Microsoft Dynamics AX for the Industrial Equipment Industry
Industrial equipment manufacturers and machine assembly companies must deliver high-quality products on time while managing their costs and quality. And as more manufacturers outsource more activities and components, causing parts to possibly change hands several times before reaching final assembly, there is a greater need for manufacturers to have the same visibility into the suppliers’ processes and status as they have into their own shop floor. Microsoft Dynamics AX, enterprise resource planning (ERP) software for industrial equipment manufacturing, can help component, sub-assembly, and whole-system manufacturers increase operational visibility, enhance control of processes and projects, and fuel expansion into new territories and services. It has thousands of users worldwide, including industrial equipment companies, and frequently replaces Oracle and SAP; is sold only by authorized Microsoft resellers like Fullscope; and includes core applications for financials, CRM, SCM, human resources, project management and analytics. Built for Efficient Discrete Production ActivitiesDesigned for mid-size and larger companies, Microsoft Dynamics AX for the industrial equipment industry is a multi-language, multicurrency enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution. Its core strengths are in manufacturing and order processing. Integrate Design Innovation into ManufacturingMicrosoft Dynamics AX for industrial equipment manufacturers can help shorten time to market for new product innovations by integrating design and manufacturing processes, managing projects effectively and collaborating effectively with suppliers, partners, and customers. Support Flexible Manufacturing Processes and Multiple Business ModelsIndustrial equipment manufacturers need a system that can be tailored to fit their business and serve multiple business models, including make to stock (MTS), make to order (MTO), assemble to order (ATO), configure to order (CTO), and engineer to order (ETO). Microsoft Dynamics AX handles these needs and also supports “smart customizations” and modularized product manufacturing. Improve Project Management of Customized OrdersMicrosoft Dynamics AX ERP software for the industrial equipment industry lets you create estimates and quotes faster and more accurately. By analyzing project costs and total order processing time, you can better predict machine and human resource requirements for improved scheduling and precise delivery times. Enhance Material and Product TraceabilityMicrosoft Dynamics AX gives you the ability to track materials from purchase through production and sale with lot and location control, which in turn helps you respond more effectively to recall notices or queries about item engineering, sourcing, and current use. Fine Tune the Entire Supply Chain and Solidify Supplier RelationshipsUse production demands and obtain visibility into outsourced manufacturing operations so you can react quickly and make real-time decisions in your supply chains. Identify and address business needs and potential bottlenecks or shortages. |
