Our Customers are Our Purpose and Our Strength
OmegaCube ERP enabled us to get real-time visibility of our production schedules and inventory levels. Everyone on the shop floor knew the number of pending orders, how much inventory was ordered, how much was consumed and how much was needed to go out in the coming days. We now have the entire reporting history of how much inventory was consumed in the last 30/60/90 days, allowing us to analyze and manage inventory procurements better.”
With our visibility into demand schedules, we know which parts we can pull in to get a more complete nest, get better utilization of material and estimate our costs much more accurately. Similarly, when we have jobs requiring material of like-thickness OmegaCube pools those together into a single work-center, making workflow much more efficient.”
As soon as jobs are completed everyone knows an order is ready to ship. An email is sent via mobile devices so people throughout the facility are notified no matter where they are. When new jobs are created people can immediately check BOMs and inventory levels, so tools and materials can be ordered within minutes.”
