ERP systems that are either too expensive or too limited
Manufacturing SMBs are often forced to choose between enterprise ERPs that cost hundreds of thousands of euros (SAP, Oracle) and generic software that doesn't understand production. The result? Bills of materials in Excel, orders tracked on paper, and zero visibility into what's happening on the shop floor.
Common challenges for manufacturing SMBs
- Bills of materials managed in Excel
- No visibility into production
- Inventory out of sync
- Enterprise ERPs that cost too much
- Manual invoicing and delivery notes
