ERP System for Factory to Improve Decision-making

The ERP system is built by Pleasanter to enhance operational efficiency, streamline processes, and improve decision-making. All the important data is managed in one place: employees, work time, equipment, order and material, supplier, CRM data, etc.

Industry: Manufacturing

The Client: A factory

Project Overview

  • Duration: 5 months
  • Volume: 15 man-month
  • Technology: Pleasanter

Challenges

  • Lack of a central hub for data, slowing decision-making and causing miscommunication.
  • Inefficient hiring and employee data tracking, leading to payroll and task management issues.
  • Poor time tracking causes payroll errors and labor underutilization.
  • Untracked equipment maintenance leads to costly breakdowns and production delays.
  • Scattered customer data, resulting in missed leads and slow response times.
  • Inefficient order and material handling, causing production delays and inventory issues.
  • Disorganized supplier management, disrupting production schedules.

Our Solutions

CodLUCk has built a dashboard that gathers real-time data from all departments:

1. The recruitment module enables tracking candidates, managing applications, and ensuring there are no delays in filling positions. This will also keep all the Client’s hiring data organized and easy to manage.

2. The employee module, all employee records—like personal information, roles, and performance—will be stored in one place.

3. The time-keeping module to track employee work hours automatically: overtime, payroll, etc.

4. The equipment module will track all the Client’s machinery and equipment in real-time. It will alert you when maintenance is due, helping you prevent unexpected breakdowns, reduce downtime, and control maintenance costs.

5. The CRM module: all customer information will be unified in one place.  The company’s sales and support teams will be able to see every interaction with a customer, ensuring no missed follow-ups, quicker response times, and better customer service.

6. The order and material modules will keep everything organized. You’ll know exactly what materials you have, what’s needed for production, and track customer orders easily. This will prevent stock shortages, overstocking, and production delays.

7. The supplier module will help you manage supplier relationships and track purchase orders efficiently. It ensures that materials arrive on time, keeping your production on schedule and running smoothly.

Results

  • After applying this ERP system, the factory quickly sees improved decision-making with real-time data from the Dashboard, error-free payroll and time tracking through the Employee and Time-keeping modules, and more efficient recruitment via the Recruitment module.
  • Additionally, equipment downtime will decrease, and customer satisfaction will rise with better maintenance planning and streamlined CRM operations. Order fulfillment and procurement will become more efficient, reducing production delays and ensuring on-time deliveries from suppliers.
