Complex Projects of To-Order Manufacturers Managed by VISIBILITY.net

Visibility’s knowledge and experience in the To-Order manufacturing market delivers an ERP software package with the necessary tools for managing complex projects.

ANDOVER, MA – July 16, 2010 – The key challenges faced by To-Order manufacturers when managing complex engineering projects include:

• Countless product variations
• Continuously changing specifications
• Prolonged design and approval processes
• Design release process out of synch with production needs
• Delivery cycle time too long

ETO manufacturers encourage customers to finalize designs by assuring dedicated resources - Using VISIBILITY Master Production Scheduling, ETO manufacturers are able to identify critical “pinch-point” processes and tie them back to the overall job using Rough Cut Capacity Planning functions. Reserving time slots at these critical resources was tied to the finalization of product specifications reducing the tendency to insert “desired but not required” changes late in the job cycle.

The loading of these critical resources allows the sales group to promise more realistic delivery schedules based on assessments of current and future loads in the plant. By taking advantage of the integrated nature of VISIBILITY, along with revamping approaches to product design and information hand-offs, many ETO manufacturers reduce product design time by 40%.
