Bills of Material ERP Module

The Bills of Material ERP Module is designed to ensure your organization has complete control over product structure. This module ensures that engineering, production, purchasing and order processing are using the same information.

The Bills of Material is the fundamental building block for scheduling, costing and inventory control. If you are have instituted lean manufacturing programs you need to make sure your software can support you. Seradex Bills of Material module was developed from the ground up to incorporate the principles and methodologies of lean. Seradex offers utilities to flatten multi-level Billss-of-material. The Billss of material architecture supports just in time purchasing, kanban controlled items and vendor managed inventory.

Seradex offers many features for company's that deal in projects involving complex sales, engineering, purchasing and production requirements. For project-oriented Engineer to Order (ETO) companies effectively managing the list of all components needed to make a final product is crucial. Often, many multi-disciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical) are involved. The BOM is different for each individual customer. The Bills of Material Module allows you to accommodate an ever-changing Bills of material, enforce standards, collaborate with other departments, customers and suppliers as well as integrate with existing CAD systems. This results in improved margins, increased efficiencies and competitiveness, while meeting stringent customer demands.
