Frontier Product Data Management (PDM) provides the tools to define
and maintain the extensive product and production information required
to drive an integrated ERP solution.
Frontier PDM, along with Product Configuration Management and Engineering
Change Management, provides the functionality to support the engineering
requirements of both stock and custom configured product business
models.
Frontier PDM Supports:
- Centralized item master file across all plants/warehouses to
maintain standardized product naming conventions, categories,
and
descriptions
- Production related information maintained by plant/warehouse
to account for production variations between facilities:
• Production routings to define the manufacturing processes,
along with acceptable alternatives, associated with the
production of
the product
• Product structures (BOMs) to define the required components,
along with acceptable alternatives, associated with the
production of the product
• Production departments, work centers and machines to define
cost and capacity constraints associated with the production
facility
• Inventory replenishment guidelines to drive material planning
and suggested replenishment orders
• Foundation cost data for calculating rolled costs and the associated
overhead of all manufactured products
