What is the Prodictive Manufacturing Management Suite?
The Prodictive Manufacturing Management Suite is a collection of "best of breed" applications specifically designed for the casework, millwork, and woodwork industries. Imagine a single system that handles specialized tasks like estimating, project management, material procurement and handling, project and plant scheduling, project costing, forecasting, and overall business management. That is the Prodictive Manufacturing Management Suite. And since the Prodictive Suite is designed specifically for your type of business, we can get your business fully implemented in just weeks, not months or even years, as is the pattern with expensive and overly complex ERP systems.
Control your pricing ..
Profitability begins at the selling price. Sell a project too cheaply and no matter how efficient the rest of the business runs, you'll lose money .. every time. So, to ensure profitability your pricing method has to take into account your actual costs involved in the project. The Prodictive Suite uses the "best of breed" estimating system produced by Alliance Millsoft, widely used throughout the industry. The estimating engine produces the detailed data needed to run projects as they were priced, and with material and labor values precise enough to run projects soley from the estimating data .. the same information that was used to determine profitability.
Control your projects ..
While profit may begin with the sell price, maximaizing the return begins in project management. A project manager needs to have a thorough, instant, and easily understood overview of all the needs for a project, along with a clear understanding iof the resources required to accomplish the project sucessfully. That is where the J-MOS project management module comes into play. Project managers instantly control material procurement, scheduling, work order bundling, and project goal setting as soon as the project is a go.
Control your production ..
Plant coordination and scheduling is probably the biggest challenge to running your business profitably. It requires the proper timing of materials, space, and manpower to meet project goals. And it's not just about coordinating these things for today .. to truly work it must be forward looking .. anticipating your resource needs into the weeks and months ahead. The J-MOS Scheduler is designed to perform this task on the fly.
Control your plant ..
All of the planning in the world is useless without knowing where you are, right now. The kiosks on your plant floor capture what's going on at the moment and provide you with a live feed of your production activities, graphically represented to provide you and your staff with an instant understanding of what all departments are and how they progressing related to their goals.
Control your profitability ..
The Prodicitive Manufacturing Management Suite forms a perfect circle of your business .. plan for profit, implement the plan, assess the results and move on the next project.
