Expandable ERP provides all the integrated tools a manufacturer needs to establish and sustain efficient business operations. Our powerful MRP engine is at the core of the system’s manufacturing functions, helping optimize procurement to minimize on-hand inventory and eliminate expediting.
Expandable ERP channels computing power to perform calculations that are virtually impossible to do by hand and always tedious to set up in a spreadsheet or office document. The system performs cost rollups, real-time inventory valuations, variances, materials requirements planning (MRP) output, and more with just a few key strokes.
