EXCS ERP supports multi-item work orders, allowing for nesting and by-products being returned to stock.
Full Traceability
EXCS ERP tracks materials in real time across your operations, not just in the warehouse. Track by batch, serial or lot numbers, or by date, including First In First Out (FIFO), Last In First Out (LIFO), and Use By.
Identify Your Available Capacity
Maximise machine utilisation by understanding when machines are running, idle, or available, helping you identify opportunities to take on additional work without increasing capacity.
Utilise Finite Scheduling
Set your parameters on each available resource in EXCS ERP to ensure no over-booking. The system's scheduling engine creates a plan based on the most efficient delivery of jobs using all the information contained within EXCS ERP, including delivery dates and available resource. Our drag and drop functionality can also be used to fine tune planned schedules, for specific occasions when experience and knowledge come into play, ie consolidated set-ups.
Key Analytics and Reporting for Precision Engineering
View the KPIs that matter to you on EXCS's customisable dashboards. Track work orders, stock levels, quality, production targets, waste and costs and understand exactly how your precision engineering business is performing.
Manage Scrap
Avoid material shortages and account for all material costs by recording scrap or wastage information. EXCS ERP allows you to apply a fixed quantity and/or percentage to all items, either purchased or manufactured, for accurate materials management. Fixed and percentage scrap is also handled at every level in our BOMs.
Understand Your Production Costs
Get clear visibility over planned and actual production costs with EXCS ERP. Calculate labour costs and track set up times and run times, including cycle quantities and cycle time. Cycle times can be set as decimals of days, hours, minutes and even points of a second to allow precise and accurate costing. Track and cost any assembly work as it happens. Material costs are allocated to each job.
Bill of Materials (BOM)
EXCS's bill of materials allows you to accurately define all the components, materials, parts, subassemblies and quantities required to manufacture a finished product. Starting with the finished product at the top, its hierarchical structure allows infinite multi-level BOMs of unlimited size. Save time by duplicating existing BOMs, use the tracking history to record revisions (ideal for audit purposes), and import BOMs from other software packages, including Excel and CAD packages. Included in EXCS ERP's BOM is a standard item configurator.
Item Revisions and Version Control
Achieve clear visibility and control of each different version of a BOM or route. As part of EXCS's product lifecycle management, all revisions are tracked, with the current version being stored on the item or part master.
Item Variants
With EXCS ERP you can store multiple manufacturing versions and routes for an item. Ideal for companies that offer customisable or configurable products to meet diverse customer needs. EXCS also provides Engineering Change Order (ECO) and change control functionality, enabling controlled management of product, BOM and process changes.
Manage Subcontract Work
Maintain visibility of subcontract work, including the current location and status of your parts, while tracking subcontract costs and allocating them accurately to the correct job.
Multiple Unit of Measure (UOM) & Conversions
EXCS ERP gives you the ability to measure materials precisely, based on your preferences. Stay in control of various units of measurement for your inventory. Establish conversion ratios directly within the system, ensuring seamless management of sales, purchases, and stock transactions. The system will seamlessly manage all conversions on your behalf.
