Press Release Summary: Datacraft Solutions' Replenishment Solution Succeeds in the ETO Environment
Press Release Body: Seamless business solution is required to request for quotes, vendor quotes, project planning, requisition approval, and processing into purchase order generation. There needs to be support of standard purchase orders, blanket orders and releases and subcontract purchase orders, manage purchasing commitments by project and the two-way or three-way match with accounts payable. According to Stephen Parker, CEO of North Carolina-based Datacraft Solutions, "The reduction of waste associated with rarely used items in inventory as well as allowing distributors to focus on core competencies and production efforts is vital. No time should be wasted sourcing and procuring infrequently used items. There are very few digital kanban systems, and the old kanban card system has severe restrictions when there is an external supplier in the supply chain. Digital kanban re-orders based only on actual consumption are electronically communicated during each phase of replenishment."
Project-focused manufacturers have unique needs that frequently surpass out-of-the-box capabilities of generic software packages. The ability to find highly customizable interfaces while providing a system of record for everything project-related; including a complete view of the business, is rare.
In the current issue of Industry 2.0 magazine, leading manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler, describes the value of digital kanban and the demand driven supply chain in the ETO (engineer-to-order) environment. Cutler is a regular contributor to Industry 2.0 and has a monthly column, titled Cutler Speaks.
