Case Study · ERP & Manufacturing

Multi-Plant Manufacturing ERP

An ERP that runs four plants on one system — connecting inventory, production planning, procurement, finance and shop-floor IoT. Stock is real-time, purchasing is driven by MRP, and every batch is traceable from raw material to dispatched order. One source of truth replaced a tangle of spreadsheets and disconnected tools.

Overview

One system from raw material to dispatch.

A manufacturer running four plants had a different system in each — and a wall of spreadsheets bridging the gaps. Stock figures were never current, purchasing was reactive, and finance closed the month by hand. They asked us to replace all of it with a single ERP shaped around their operation.

We delivered an ERP that ties planning, procurement, inventory, production, quality and finance together, with shop-floor terminals and machine data feeding live progress back in. Demand drives MRP, which drives purchasing; production is tracked by work order; and every batch carries a traceable record from goods-in to the customer’s door.

  • Inventory, planning, procurement, production & finance unified
  • MRP-driven purchasing from real demand
  • Batch and serial traceability end to end

Four plants, one source of truth — live stock, planned purchasing and a closeable ledger

What We Built

The modules that run the floor.

Each area is its own module, but they share one database — so a change in one place is true everywhere.

Inventory & Warehouse

Real-time stock across plants and warehouses with barcode receiving, bin locations, transfers and automatic reorder points.

Production Planning

MPS and MRP turn the order book and forecast into a feasible schedule, balancing capacity, materials and lead times.

BOM & Routing

Multi-level bills of material and work-centre routings define exactly what each product needs and how it’s made.

Shop-Floor Control

Operators clock work orders at terminals while machine IoT feeds live output, downtime and scrap straight into the system.

Procurement & Vendors

MRP-generated purchase requests, RFQs, approvals and a vendor portal keep buying ahead of the line, not behind it.

Finance & Costing

Integrated GL, payables, receivables and standard-versus-actual job costing close the loop from shop floor to ledger.

Under the Hood

Built for the real plant floor.

The engineering that made one ERP work across sites, machines and auditors.

Traceability & Quality

  • Batch and serial tracking from goods-in to dispatch
  • In-process and final quality checks with hold/release
  • Full genealogy for recalls and compliance audits
  • Non-conformance, rework and scrap recording
  • Certificates of analysis and conformance on demand

Platform & Integration

  • Multi-plant, multi-currency and multi-language by design
  • Machine and PLC data captured over IoT gateways
  • Role-based access, approvals and full audit trails
  • Configurable dashboards and scheduled reporting
  • APIs for EDI, logistics and customer portals
