Having a modern manufacturing ERP solution condensed into a single system is quickly becoming a necessity for the manufacturing industry to compete in today’s technology-driven marketplace. If you have a quick five minutes to spare, Acumatica, a cloud ERP provider for manufacturing companies, has provided an excellent video discussing how a modern manufacturing ERP system can give your business a competitive advantage and help boost your company’s overall efficiency.

Ray Rebello, Director of Product Marketing at Acumatica, argues the future of your business rests on being able to support manufacturing operations with a 360-degree and real-time view of all of your business processes, from production planning to the shop floor. As the video states, “The days of the stand-alone system are gone. In today’s competitive world, an integrated ERP system is the norm.” Making the shift will give you an edge in today’s technology-driven market.

“While implementing a balanced manufacturing ERP software system obviously requires more than five minutes, we hope our short but informative video clearly illustrates how planning drives shop floor control and feeds accounting,” Rebello adds.
