Moulding Foundry using Ammpro
One of the many advantages of the
Business Model
over competing systems is theweb enabled production management
system inAmmpro
. Through this function you have the capability to export relevant customer account information to the internet strengthening thetrading relationship
. Conversely, you will also be able to import files from your customers such asorder schedules
directly into yourorderbook
that would then be reflected in thecapacity planning
.Recognising the need to integrate with other systems,
Ammpro
is compatible with a number offinancial accounting
andfactoring
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
