ERP Solutions for the Manufacturing Industry

Fluentis ERP Manufacturing is a fully integrated solution that addresses all facets of your business, removing the need for external systems.

With best practices pre-configured and tailored to your specific needs, the implementation process is streamlined, ensuring efficient and effective management of all operational processes.

The Manufacturing solution of Fluentis ERP features an Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) module that optimizes production and logistics processes. It aligns flexibility with production constraints, ensuring material availability and resource efficiency while meeting delivery deadlines. This integration enhances operational efficiency and responsiveness in the manufacturing sector.

The Fluentis ERP Manufacturing solution includes a Planning module with ATP (Available to Promise) algorithms to support the sales team, MRP I and II for optimizing material procurement and resource efficiency, and CRP (Capacity Resource Planning) for managing workloads across work centers, displayed through specific Gantt charts.

It is possible to activate the integration of PDM systems and improve the efficiency of the engineering department by automatically importing technical data from the CAD system into Fluentis ERP, centralizing information, and managing the entire product lifecycle.

The Fluentis ERP Manufacturing solution includes an ESB connector, BizLink, which enables bidirectional automatic communication with machines and presses. It also features dashboards that monitor production progress and efficiency in real-time.

With Fluentis ERP Manufacturing, it’s possible to automate the collection of production data, already integrated with the material procurement process, allowing for precise and real-time costing of items and their corresponding production orders.

The Fluentis ERP Manufacturing solution includes its own MES (Manufacturing Execution System), which provides real-time monitoring of the status and utilization of resources, including machines (both attended and unattended), equipment, and personnel, all through specialized dashboards.

The Fluentis ERP MES functionality enables the tracking of production times using touch dashboards or barcodes, as well as the management of outsourced operations, with automatic tracking of progress. Additionally, it offers charts for immediate visibility into the performance of each resource or machine.

The Fluentis ERP Manufacturing solution is comprehensive. For companies operating across multiple countries, it provides a list of supported foreign tax systems, either natively integrated into Fluentis or through the integration of specific international solutions.

With the Fluentis ERP Management Control module, businesses can break down costs and revenues in great detail, categorized by their intended purpose. This yields two key results: project-based accounting with reports and charts that highlight margins and profitability, and cost center accounting, which tracks expenses allocated to each department and resource, allowing for the calculation of respective rates.

The Management Control module also enables the generation of interim financial statements, offering various reclassification models. It automatically produces the summarized information required to monitor and guide company performance, which is organized in diagrams and charts to simplify analysis and interpretation.

Fluentis ERP Manufacturing includes an integrated Quality Management module that allows for the definition of quality control plans for suppliers, specifying the frequency based on performance metrics. The Quality module enables the qualification of all suppliers, who are assessed with a point-based system influenced by the checks outlined in the control plan.

These same checks can be carried out during the internal production process, automatically notifying the quality control manager via a workflow about the actions required. This ensures the effective management of customer complaints and both internal and external non-conformities, allowing for the implementation of necessary corrective actions.

Fluentis ERP Manufacturing includes features that help improve both internal and external logistics efficiency through the Fluentis Mobile WMS. The Fluentis Mobile WMS works in Wi-Fi environments with touchscreen devices, connected to the ERP system via Web Services. This setup offers greater flexibility and speed, providing real-time information and reducing errors. The Fluentis Mobile WMS organizes warehouses by defining physical spaces like aisles, shelving units, or simply areas and stations, ensuring each location is uniquely identified. The system automates material loading and unloading, optimizes picking and storage, and speeds up order fulfillment and material receipt.

It also supports full Lot Management, which improves speed and accuracy in operator tasks, reduces errors, and ensures full traceability of materials. The system includes features for managing periodic stock checks and inventory processes.

The native CRM module serves a dual purpose: it organizes the pre-sales phase and enhances the sales process with innovative tools that ensure you always have access to customer and prospect information, while continuously tracking business opportunities.

Business Intelligence (BI) supports the monitoring of efficiency metrics, enhancing the company’s forecasting and control capabilities.
