Infor SyteLine for the Fastener Industry
Manufacturers and distributors of fasteners, valves, and fittings are experiencing major industry changes. With global demand for these items increasing, they must beef up their compliance measures and manage complex supply chains to stay ahead of the competition.
A sophisticated ERP platform allows fastener manufacturers to streamline operations and adhere to regulations while also maintaining a competitive advantage. Think of ERP tools and modules as the fasteners that hold your enterprise together. Integrated features and real-time data help users connect each step of the supply chain to gain a full view of their business’ productivity and automate processes, even when locations span across the globe.
SyteLine proves especially adept at handling concerns in the fastener industry. Infor delivers leading solutions for an array of manufacturing and distribution verticals including industrial and commercial machinery manufacturing. In this blog post, we’ve outlined a few points about how SyteLine supports fastener industry needs!
Supply Chain Efficiency
Complex, global supply chains are more prone to roadblocks and costly downtime, making ERP a huge asset to fastener manufacturers. SyteLine’s holistic supply chain management module provides end-to-end visibility to attack common pain points. Users can track real-time metrics and access production data to smooth over any issues in material acquirement, scheduling, machine performance, and more across all locations. Additionally, SyteLine automates workflows, so you can cut back on human errors and make better use of your time.
Quality Control
Fasteners are required by some of the most highly regulated businesses, such as aerospace and defense, automotive, and medical device manufacturing enterprises. That means fastener suppliers and manufacturers must comply with strict mandates while also creating top-notch products that meet growing consumer demands. Ensuring your business is always complying with these mandates and customer expectations is made more efficient with SyteLine’s quality management capabilities.
By providing full visibility into inspection plans, jobs, purchase orders, and more, users can maintain detailed audit trails and compliance documentation. SyteLine’s quality management module supports various standards, such as automotive (TS), aerospace (AS), and ISO, making it a trustworthy system for manufacturers and distributors in the fasteners industry.
