Manage Multiple Factories or Multiple Plants with Ease
Multi-plant planning, production and accountability are now easier and more efficient. The DELMIAWorks (formerly IQMS) Manufacturing ERP "EPlant" solution provides a single data repository for managing multiple manufacturing companies or multiple plants, thereby delivering greater visibility across the entire enterprise.
An organization that uses centralized data storage to manage multiple plants can consolidate data management, reduce the number of servers and lower IT maintenance and administration costs. As a result, companies can achieve tighter data consolidation and reduce redundant activities across multiple locations. Information can be accessed instantly, without cumbersome batch downloads.
Organization-Specific Reporting and Visibility
DELMIAWorks supports entity-specific functions such as general ledger, locations, inventories, production planning, currencies, languages and financial reporting, while allowing core corporate functions such as purchasing, order entry and invoicing to be centralized. With security-controlled access, each entity can manage its own information without affecting data at other locations.
Key Features:
- True, distributed manufacturing capability. For example, a single BOM structure can include parts produced at another plant. With a single order, demand for all levels of the related product is automatically generated across locations.
- Multi-language support allows various languages at each plant and even within a single plant.
- Multi-currency is enabled to support local and unlimited foreign currency conversions.
- View All or individual entities. Through security options, users can be assigned access to local and/or corporate views of the data.
- View production information across locations. With the appropriate security, users can access or view planning and production information at multiple plants in real time.
- Intercompany Transaction functionality enables multi-plant companies to achieve unified planning and distribution across all plants quickly and easily.
- Provide separate bills of material, tooling, inventory, schedules and production planning by entity.
- Complete financial analysis by location. With a central database storing activity across the enterprise, pulling financial data is easy and fast. EPlants can have separate charts of accounts, tax IDs and fiscal years, and can operate using different currencies for maximum flexibility.
- Simplify data collection for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reporting periods.
- Simplify and streamline intercompany / interplant transfers with GL roll-up
