Manufacturing

Manufacturing

Manufacturing companies need software flexible enough to manufacturer goods from pharmaceuticals to automotive parts, while also being efficient enough to produce low cost, high quality goods in a lean and highly automated environment. Manufacturers need to manage multiple customer requirements simultaneously while meeting delivery deadlines, product design requirements, and quality specifications.

The Oracle E-Business Suite Manufacturing family of applications enables you to optimise production capacity, from raw materials through final product – regardless of manufacturing methodology.  A unified data model provides a single, accurate view of your manufacturing process, so you can configure customer orders, optimise subcontracting, and manage for cost, quality and compliance.  And when Oracle Manufacturing runs on Oracle technology, you speed implementation, optimise performance, streamline support, and maximise return on investment.

Oracle E-Business Suite will offer robust demand planning and production control, detailed costing information, integrated financial management, as well as strong inventory control for raw materials and finish good inventories. In addition the solution will manage a variety of customer production requirements that could include a mixture of discrete, process, and mix-mode manufacturing processes.  While there are ERP software packages available for this diverse set of requirements, not all ERP solutions can meet the needs of a manufacturer.
