Managing manufacturing is a challenge; predicting demand, correctly analysing material and resource requirements, production planning and ensuring quality output all form part of a manufacturing business’s essential activities. Even small errors can have damaging downstream consequences in terms of productivity, quality, sales and ultimately profitability.

MRP
Being able to respond ‘on-the-fly’ to last minute changes to a scheduled production run without compromising the core process, balance customer demand, forecast requirements and plan production with pin-point accuracy are aspects of the manufacturing process that ‘truth-be-known’ have shortened the life span of many fine managers and enthusiastic production planners over the years. The ‘engine-room’ activities of any business with a manufacturing, distribution and/or assembly component will be planning, production and inventory management which is why Greentree’s MRP & Forecasting modules are intricately integrated with Greentree’s Inventory Management module.

Quality Control
Have you ever had to return an item to the manufacturer or retail outlet because it was faulty, damaged or outright broken? Irritating isn’t it? Most of us have had to do this at least once in our lives and the nuisance value of the whole process can’t be understated. Testing for quality assurance is an afterthought for some businesses or not part of the manufacturing process at all for others where the urgency to get products out the door takes precedence. The outcome becomes an exercise in false economics as the cost of having dissatisfied customers is considerable and over time will surely exceed the investment required for a robust Quality Control process.
