How do you accommodate varying customer orders when your products are output as a continuous batch? LeanERA Manufacturing makes it easy to monitor production processes, inventory levels, feedstocks and sales — in real time. Using that information, you can match inventory levels to fulfill customer orders.

Integrating production and management

  • LeanEra communicates directly with production PLCs so that it is possible to know what product is in process at all times.
  • Database and MRP are automatically updated with inventories and costing minute-by-minute.

Going with the flow

  • LeanEra does not force creation of artificial job orders to track production or sales.
  • MRP communicates sales requirements throughout the system and backflushes inventory to fill customer orders.
  • Information flow is a single process from order entry to shipping; all data is continuously updated in real time.

Recipe for efficiency

  • LeanEra batch control scheduling lets you produce a consistent product across multiple lines, regardless of hopper sizes, by automatically adjusting the Bill of Materials for each process line.
