Make to Order Manufacturing ERP System

Make-to-Order Manufacturing Software

Make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing involves delivering customised products that meet each customer’s unique needs, requiring precision, flexibility, and rapid response times. At Precise Business Solutions, we specialise in delivering make-to-order ERP software designed to transform these challenges into competitive advantages, ensuring manufacturers can adapt quickly and efficiently to meet high-precision and high-quality customer demands.

Customer-First Make-to-Order Manufacturing ERP Systems

Prioritising customer control is key with make-to-order manufacturing software. Our make-to-order manufacturing ERP system integrates CRM to provide a comprehensive view of every customer interaction. It enhances mobile support for responsive on-the-go access and includes eCommerce capabilities for straightforward order configuration and tracking, boosting responsiveness and customer satisfaction while streamlining operations.

Because your full quote, order and customer history is available in real-time, it is easy to look at previous quotes and job history to see what a given customer has requested previously, or indeed if you have manufactured or quoted something before – for anyone – that is similar to what you are being asked to quote on now. With easy access to your parts catalogue, engineering details for any common assemblies you use in your production and the embedded Configurator tool, creating accurate quotes very quickly can make you a preferred supplier for your customers.

Unleash Efficiency with Make-to-Order Manufacturing ERP

Make-to-order manufacturing ERP software streamlines every aspect of the manufacturing process. By integrating critical business functions — such as customer inquiries, production, fulfilment and finance — into one platform, our ERP solutions for manufacturing enhance visibility across operations, improve collaboration within your business, and accelerate production timelines, enabling:

  • Customised Production: Tailor production uniquely for each order without sacrificing efficiency, while still leveraging any specialised common assemblies and processes you have developed that deliver competitive advantage.
  • Dynamic Scheduling: Adapt real-time production schedules to manage new orders, changes in customer specifications, supply issues, new priorities or unforeseen delays.
  • Inventory Optimisation: Minimise inventory costs by synchronising production with actual demand, reducing excess stock and avoiding shortages.
  • Billing Accuracy and Cash Flow Improvement: Ensure you invoice for exactly what you are able to and when, be that on shipment or, optionally, through complex Contract commercial terms including deposits, milestones and retentions.

Seamless Make-to-Order Operations

Our make-to-order ERP software addresses specific make-to-order manufacturing challenges:

  • Complex Customisation Requirements: Manage intricate customisations and multiple configurations, controlling costs, timelines and quality control.
  • Variable Production Workflows: Modify workflows dynamically to meet each order’s unique requirements, ensuring precise fulfilment of customer specifications.
  • Demand Fluctuations: Quickly respond to changes in order volume or specifications with agile planning and effective scheduling tools.
