FlexNet for Durable Consumer Goods
Durable goods manufacturers are outsourcing in increasing numbers, both up front with buying subcomponents from specialists, or at the back end by using outside warehouses and third party logistics (3PL) providers. So the potential for quality slip-ups is greater than ever – just at a time when regulators are breathing down your neck. Apriso FlexNet, an Operations Execution System (OES) that easily integrates with your ERP, is an ideal manufacturing operations management solution because it:
- Provides information layer around existing automation equipment to manage complexities between business systems and the shop floor
- Makes it easy to modify and manage supply chain sourcing for supplier’s raw/semi-finished materials and in distribution
- Tracks all aspects of production by individual serial number or RFID tag
- Improves your overall customer service levels
- Gives visibility to orders to prioritize promise dates and track customer orders
- Gives greater flexibility within very tight scheduling timeframes
- Directs BOM and routings, materials, and equipment to drive out errors in manufacturing

"FlexNet integrated our SAP system with the shop floors of our three plants in Europe, giving us full traceability down to the serial number. It’s hard to imagine how we functioned without it.”
