For manufacturers with advanced processes, MAS 500 offers a robust series of applications that provide total control of your manufacturing environment. From work orders, engineering change management and production scheduling to estimating, material requirements planning and capable to promise calculations, everything you need for streamlined manufacturing is right here.

Light Manufacturing/Advanced Kitting is the perfect product to help you manage production and kit assembly without complicated labor transactions or material issues. The streamlined manufacturing system integrates with other optional MAS 500 manufacturing modules and allows distributors, assemble-to-order industries, and other light manufacturers to concentrate on other critical business issues without getting tied up in complex manufacturing processes. Traditional manufacturers may need the Advanced Manufacturing module.

Advanced Manufacturing includes all of the functionality of the Light Manufacturing/Advanced Kitting module, as well as enhanced work orders, and labor and production reporting, which are essential requirements for assembly, electronics, metal fabrication and machine/equipment manufacturing. The system provides shop floor visibility to your entire enterprise, including which employees are currently on the clock in any production facility. With a few mouse-clicks, customer service can quickly view the status of a customer order without having to interrupt the shop supervisor. The GAAP-compliant job costing system helps you identify which manufactured items are generating the most profit and which are costing you money. You will be able to spot production bottlenecks and respond in real-time to last-minute engineering changes and high-priority orders.
