Optimizing the manufacturing process for maximum productivity
Manufacturing productivity for increased profitability
In today's challenging business landscape, preserving your
competitive edge requires streamlining your operations and
increasing your productivity. Manufacturing is one area that
can yield faster returns on your strategic investments
through enhanced efficiency and lowered operation costs.
The CANIAS ERP BOM Management module helps you
maximize operational efficiency, increase productivity and
lower operation costs, leading to increased profitability.
The intelligent features provided by the CANIAS ERP BOM
Management Module ensure consolidation of manufacturing
processes. Thanks to the system's advanced integration
and rich features, users are presented with a common
platform providing all product tree related information and
associated engineering activities.
Synergy from centralized data
A Bill of Materials is a depiction of the multiple components
making up a product. The CANIAS ERP BOM Management
module meets the advanced requirements of organizations
creating, using and maintaining BOMs. Each department
having responsibility in completion of a manufacturing task
can be specified in the production structure of a BOM.
Within the CANIAS ERP BOM Management module,
complex production structures can be created by
interconnecting multiple single level structures. BOM explosion feature determines the display of BOMs at
various levels. Users may define multiple types of BOMs
such as alternative, multiple, product set and variant
BOMs.
Bill of Materials types can also be defined to allow precise
differentiation for use in distinct types of processing. You
can improve the efficiency of your operations by creating
product trees (BOMs) specifically targeted for design,
production, cost calculation, and spare parts. Specialized
bills of material are also available for sales sets and
contract manufacturing.
Process control
Engineering system parameters are used to indicate
Bills of Materials to be employed for the specific
department associated with a task. This allows precise
determination of the current stage of a BOM within the
prescribed process stages (i.e. design, planning or
manufacturing).
History management, a common feature of the CANIAS
ERP system, can also be used with the Bill of Materials
Management module for efficient management and
tracking of all changes made within validity period
associated with a BOM.
Where-used lists, component substitution, BOM
decomposition, retrospective analysis and a host of other
features allow high performance product trees to be created, used and maintained. Product trees can also be
graphically displayed and printed.
For materials with accompanying route information and
BOMs, the module automatically creates the necessary
production network plans. These network plans are
accessible through the materials master as well as by using
the dynamic production control functions. Completed
processes are displayed clearly using highlighting.
