How did the implementation go?
Challenges
The company struggled with efficiency and scattered data, because before PrintVis it used a proprietary ERP and a selection of 3rd party systems to run their business. This resulted in manufacturing jobs taking too long, inaccurate estimations and invoices, poor production scheduling, inefficient warehouse operations and a general lack of a holistic view of the total business operations.
Solutions
PrintVis is a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central based system to handle all types and sizes of the printing, packaging and label industry companies. Microsoft Dynamics gives you a strong ERP platform for your business, while PrintVis provides a print-specific functionality required to control all the production details through the lifecycle of a job, from estimate to delivery.
The outcome
- The company now handles every stage of packaging production in a single app: from quote until the job is completed, delivered, invoiced and analysed.
- Inventory forecasting helps to keep supplies at optimal levels and saves company capital.
- Every manufacturing job, at any time, has someone designated as being the “current responsible” (from the Estimator to the Salesperson to the Production Coordinator to the Shop Floor Worker).
- Estimations increased to 98% accuracy compared to job costing statitics.
- More efficient warehouse operations and use of resources.
