Moulding Foundry using Ammpro

One of the many advantages of the

Business Model

over competing systems is the

web enabled production management

system in

Ammpro

. Through this function you have the capability to export relevant customer account information to the internet strengthening the

trading relationship

. Conversely, you will also be able to import files from your customers such as

order schedules

directly into your

orderbook

that would then be reflected in the

capacity planning

.

Recognising the need to integrate with other systems,

Ammpro

is compatible with a number of

financial accounting

and

factoring

packages. Further evidence of our dynamic approach to problem solving and progressive thinking is demonstrated in our research projects where we have formed alliances with five Trade Associations including the IBF and the DTI, coupled with our involvement in the EC grant funded Accelerate projects.

Ammpro Manufacturing System

Despite the increase in

technology

levels, one constant has remained. That is the fact that with a majority of systems available today you still have to change your

business practices

to suit the system you are using.

The fundamentals of

Order Processing

,

Production Planning and Control

,

Quality

and the need for a

Management Information System

(also known as an

MIS

) remain constant in every business. However, the method of processing is different for each business.

Ammpro

has been developed to incorporate the fundamentals but provide the

flexibility

to meet with YOUR methods of

processing

. Every system currently in operation is subtly different whether due to the

calculations, configuration or working practices

. The aim of our system is to reduce the overhead burden through meeting the requirements of your

business

.

Some of the elements include:

Sales Order Processing

In

sales order processing

you are able to work with

blanket or discrete orders

as well as having the capability to

import customer schedules

. There is also a facility to

track order amendments

through restricted and unrestricted access.

Advice Notes

,

Certificates of Conformity

and

Order Acknowledgements

can all be produced automatically or upon request.

Sub-contract work

can be processed through

Ammpro

, as can

Material requisitions

and

Purchase orders

for

production material

. All

documentation is personalised

to your business and laid out to your specification.

Production Planning and Control

Shop Floor Loading

via

capacity planning

is a standard requirement of any business, however,

Ammpro

allows

work centre re-planning

at any time with

instant visibility

over the impact of any changes through

graphical load charts

or the weekly loading details screens.

Work in progress monitoring

and full

traceability of the production process

are standard features as is

delivery planning

. An

unlimited historical archive

provides

management information

on

past performances

on each component allowing you to

plan more efficiently

.

All

shop floor documentation

from

operation layouts

to

route cards

are standard, as is the capability to

import digital images of components or processes

.

The

web-enabled capabilities

of this

application

allow

information to be exported to the Internet

for use by

remote employees

such as

sales or management

wherever they are in the world and whatever time it may be.

Purchasing

Whether you are

ordering factored parts

,

Raw material

or

Sundry Items

,

Ammpro

allows you to place the order, book the goods in and

reconcile invoices

before exporting to the

Purchase Ledger

.

Operating off the

parts and material databases

,

factored orders

and

material

orders are simple to place.

Sundry orders

can be raised for anything using a free text box. Nominal codes applied to every order allow you

full traceability in reporting against budgets

. Each order can be either printed or emailed

saving postal costs and time

.

Linked to

material purchasing

is

Material stock control

whereby you can

issue material from free stock

and return it to stock where necessary.

Quality

Defect analysis

over both

internal scrap

and

customer returns

is available with up to 48 scrap reason codes and the capability to scrap components at any time throughout the

production process

. Again with an

unlimited historical archive

you are able to

trace scrap back to operators and machines

with

management reports

on

scrap analysis

by

Quantity, Value, Weight, Shift and Operator

.

Where

material certification

is required,

Ammpro

has the capability to generate the

certifcate

following the input of the

mechanical properties

. This certificate can then be either printed and posted or emailed directly to the customer.

Credit Notes

,

Sampling and Prototyping

and

customer returns

can also be managed using this application.

Management Information

A mulititude of

reports

to your specification are available for all your key departments such as

Sales

,

Production

,

Quality

and

Finance

. Reports can be run at any time and either viewed on screen or printed off.

The most important aspect of the reports being that they are designed to your specification to meet your business needs

.

Financial Accounting

From the

creation of invoices

in

Ammpro

they can then be

exported to your financial package

by the click of a mouse. Recognising the need to integrate,

Ammpro

already has the capability to export to

Sage

,

Pegasus

,

BACS

and other

factoring systems

.
