One of the biggest benefits of Frontier is the enhanced efficiency
it brings to your manufacturing operations. Leveraging the latest
just-in-time production philosophies, Frontier’s Manufacturing
Management modules minimize your overall inventory investment.
Frontier helps you reduce your lead times with sophisticated production
scheduling tools. Automated materials ordering and payment streamlines
your relationships with vendors. And, you can always find the status
of any order, at any stage in production, with just a few clicks.
Frontier supports Master Production Scheduling (MPS), Material
Requirements Planning (MRP), Distribution Requirements Planning
(DRP), Re-Order Point (ROP) and Kan-Ban based material planning,
so you can work the way you want while gaining greater efficiencies.
Inventory Management, from simple four walls to detailed serial
number tracking, provides the level of control you desire. Under
serial number control, product and bill of material details are
available to the Service and Warranty module for ownership and
repair history over the life of the product.
Frontier supports both rough-cut and detailed capacity planning,
providing an organization the flexibility to leverage capacity
constraints within Sales Order Processing, Material Planning and
Production Scheduling.
Frontier Production Scheduling provides user-defined rules to
optimally manage production backlogs, fulfilling customer commitments.
Material, capacity, customer, product, and shipping information
is available to generate production schedules across multiple lines
and plants.
Material Optimization and Staging generates optimal cutting plans
for raw materials, so you get the most usable cut components from
every piece of raw stock. The staging logic is based on user-defined
material handling constraints to locate cut component parts together
for transition to subsequent assembly operations.
All together, Frontier’s Manufacturing Management modules
give you more control and greater profitability by helping you
plan and produce faster, with less waste and greater accuracy. |
