ERP system for process industry

Investing in an ERP System must be taken with some serious thoughts. Once implemented the system must serve the company for years to come. It must also reflect how you do business today yet evolve through subsequent business practice changes.

An ERP system in a process manufacturing company depends on data from every corner of the business such as inventory receipts, quality assurance test results, production records, customer orders, payments from customers, payments for purchases, shipments and invoices, maintenance of equipment and facilities, investments as well as several others heads under taxes. Therefore it is very important that the ERP system must be designed to reflect very need of the company's business processes.

With the implementation of eresource ERP in the process industry segment, distribution processes become streamlined and the supply chain will be more responsive. Plant executives get an effective ERP system to respond to that demand for shorter response times. Variable customer requirements, reduced inventory levels, ever-changing schedules and shorter production runs also impact plant operations - and necessitate the use of automation to ensure peak efficiency.

Innovations and developments over the past few years in the Information Technology have resulted in a reduction in labor, and the widespread use of process control instruments. These developments have increased information flow between the plant floor and the ERP system. eresource ERP provides required support to your business process a smooth and steady progress. eresource's web-based ERP system enables the real-time, plant floor information to control information in a manufacturing environment.

In a process industry ERP system, factory floor is always on the focus, specifically on the operator/user who is the most intelligent agent in a manufacturing environment. With eresource ERP system implemented, automatic data capture provides real-time updates to your inventory, improving the speed, ease, and accuracy of data capture. Each operator/user is connected through the ERP system, to everyone else in the plant floor, and to all plant floors within the organization. This operations-centric manufacturing environment-where information is shared within and between plants and planning in real time - is truly the efficient supply chain.

What is most important is that with eresource ERP system all your production process and all other manufacturing process are easily integrated and it enables automatic data collection. When you implement eresource you have an ERP system that is agile, adaptable, and easy to link with everyone in the organization.

MRP software and MRP module of ERP

Material Requirement Planning, popularly known as MRP, was developed during 1960s. This was a proactive manner of inventory management. This technique fundamentally explodes the end product demand obtained from the 'Master Production Schedule' (MPS) for a specified product structure (which is taken from Bill of Material) into a detailed schedule of purchase order or production orders, taking into account the inventory on hand.

MRP is a simple logic but the magnitude of data involved in a realistic situation makes it computationally cumbersome. If undertaken manually, the entire process is highly time consuming. It therefore becomes essential to use a computer to carry out the exercise.

MRP successfully demonstrated its effectiveness in reduction of inventory; production and delivery lead times by improving coordination and avoiding delays, thus making commitment more realistic. MRP proved to be a very good technique for managing inventory, but it did not take into account of other resources of an organization. Due to this shortcoming a modified MRP logic, popularly known as 'closed loop MRP' has been developed. A new module called Capacity Requirement Planning (CRP) has been incorporated in this. This module manages the capacity of the organization to produce a particular product. A feedback loop is provided from the CRP module to MPS if there is not enough capacity available to produce.

Later the need was felt to integrate the financial resource with the manufacturing activities. From this evolved an integrated manufacturing management system called Manufacturing Resources Planning (MRP II).

Transition from MRP II to ERP happened some time later because the basic MRP II system design was suffering from a few inherent drawbacks such as limited focus to manufacturing activities, assumption of the mass or repetitive production set ups, and poor budgetary and costing controls.

The shortcomings o MRP-II and the need to integrate these new techniques, led to the development of a total integrated solution called Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), which attempts to integrate the transactions of suppliers and customers with the manufacturing and service environment of the organization to produce the best possible plan. Today there are further development in the ERP concept and evolution of Web-enabled ERP.

ERP for strategic and technical solution

System where everybody works according to the same routine

ORGANIZATIONS need to make a substantial Investment in an ERP system in terms of capital investment, as well as from the recurring annual expenditure. The company, therefore, would like to ensure that the investment in ERP is a right decision. In that process, there may be chances of some questions arising from the members of the decision making team. These questions are reasonable. Why ERP and why not custom built software? And this, followed by which ERP out of the host of ERP packages available in the market.

Some companies see ERP as a technical solution, whereas some others view it as a strategic solution. Whether it is seen as a technical or a strategic solution, eresource is the suitable ERP system to match both these solution. Here are the highlights of eresource ERP.


Best industry practices of the respective industry are put into the eresource ERP solution.
Since this ERP solution provides an integrated environment, it provides an opportunity to see the whole company as one unit.
Better control on the company's information flow.
Integrating several old ad hoc systems into one single information system and thereby, reducing the costs of maintenance of the same.
Easy to replace systems for situations where the old systems are bulky and cannot be upgraded further.
If the company sees ERP as a technical solution, the main reason for changing over is that its present information systems are too old. Many companies will use systems that were developed in-house and are especially adapted for the company. Most of the companies have several systems developed by different vendors. The capacity of these systems is often not enough or they cannot be upgraded because they are not supported anymore.

For large enterprises, it is very difficult to get a general overview of its organization. This can be simplified with eresource ERP system where everybody works according to the same routine. This concern especially today's more and more globalised companies. Web-based eresource ERP system gives opportunities to rationalize and develop the organization. This ERP system may be seen as a tool to obtain information that can be important when forming the company's future strategies.

ERP drives enterprises forward

ERP gives businesses a vehicle to manage information

BUSINESS in this century is complex, fluid and customer-centric. It requires stringent, yet flexible processes and communications systems that extend globally and respond instantaneously. The processes and systems must be integrated. No part of the enterprise can escape the pressure to deliver measurable results.

However, the traditional ERP systems failed to complete the task they ultimately set out to accomplish: to unify the enterprise and turn it into one smoothly running machine.

eresource's web-based ERP system promises to bridge this gap. Our ERP system links departmental communications, work processes, customer data and supplier capabilities into a centrally functioning system - all focused on driving the enterprise forward. Enterprises have already started to benefit from extending their ERP installations to more of their organizations. eresource's web-based ERP was a giant step forward when first introduced. The market then saw new buzz terms such as lean manufacturing, arise that did not bring new functionality, but promised greater efficiencies, when , in fact all it did was deliver what ERP as supposed to do in the manufacturing space.

eresource ERP gave businesses a vehicle to manage information and use it to their advantage. It organized customer data in ways that helped individual departments operate more efficiently, and it created streamlined processes that helped manufacturing operations cut costs and move products along more quickly.

eresource ERP in contrast, does offer advancements in functionality. It delivers on the original concept of ERP being for the entire enterprise, so that the whole organization can operate more efficiently. No longer does corporate information sit isolated in departmental silos, but is houses with all corporate customers, etc.

This information enabling creates a new level of cohesion and eliminates most of the departmental and organizational information barriers facilitating smooth and seamless flow of information. The integration of ERP, the enabling technologies like CRM, SCM, the analysis and business intelligence tools with Internet enable the organization to do business in the Internet way at astonishing speeds and high efficiencies.

Agility is the watchword for business

Manufacturers are measured by their ability to react quickly

UNDERSTANDING the nature of your business is very important. Production takes places in all kinds of business as well as non-business operations. For example, production in a hospital is related to the process of serving meals to the patients, performing surgeries, taking and reading X-rays, conducting physical therapy, cleaning rooms and receiving payments.

Supermarket production operations include ordering and pricing inventory, stocking the shelves, packaging and displaying products, and so on. Government issues permits and licenses, collect taxes, register voters, provide police and fire protection, and so on. Contractors construct, repair and demolish buildings, build highways and bridges, and landscape parks. Similarly banks grant loans, cash or issue cheques and handle deposits and withdrawals.

Production process vary greatly in complexity, production time and the amount of resources, information and planning needed and the number and type of machines and employees needed, and the number of employees and machine needed. The production of a car takes time and requires a variety of very expensive machines and high skilled employees, typing a letter on other hand is a short process using mainly a word processor.

Competition in the future places increased emphasis upon time as expected by speed, quality and global focus. Agility is the watchword. Manufacturers are measured by their ability to react quickly to sudden, when unpredictable change in customer demand for their products and services. To compete successfully in today's business environment, requires an effective ERP system, which is a manufacturing business application, that is time and activity based and above all else, focused on their customer.

Manufacturers must respond quickly and effectively to customer demands. While agility is desirable, without an effective enterprise resource planning system it results in speed without purpose. The very heart of an enterprise manufacturing system centers on its integrated planning, business process and execution capabilities. Traditional closed-loop MRP concepts have long heralded the importance of effective planning system, because process understanding and timely executions.

Strategically effective planning results in improved inventory turns, productivity increase and improved return on investment. Tactically effective business processes provide improved customer satisfaction, reduced time to market and improved market share. Effective execution provides short cycle time, quality assurance, continuous improvement and quick response to process variability. All three elements contribute positively to the decision to install an enterprise-wide resource planning system.
