A Case Study of NEeRP Implementation at Force Company

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) software is one of the most familiar and preferred choices for businesses to coordinate and manage different business units, departments, and processes. ERP goes hand in hand with almost all the modern business processes and operations. Hence, it isn't easy to imagine a world without it.

Pre-ERP Scenario Highlights

Supply-chain delays

Without an ERP, business units will be forced to essentially run in a vacuum, lacking clear insight into the functions of other departments. It would lead to many problems, including extensive supply chain delays. The lack of coordination between manufacturers and suppliers would cause a dip in production due to the unavailability of raw materials as expected. Similarly, consignment managers would not be able to stock inventory dynamically, leading to situations where orders cannot be fulfilled or are excessively delayed because products are on backorder.

Augmented costs

A company without an ERP system leads to too many costs on core supply-chain processes like inventory management and freight shipping. A typical scenario is that the consignment manager struggles to deliver products and materials to customers on time and demand. There’s no system to report when new inventory will be delivered accurately. It usually leads to inventory overstocking. No doubt, the products are always available, and the customers are happy. However, this inefficient approach to inventory management has a significant impact on the capital being tied up in unneeded inventory.
