Synchronize Lean Material Flow

Aug. 5, 2009
FlexNet Lean Material Flow software for global manufacturing operations management (MOM) was developed in collaboration with Accenture to support Lean Manufacturing. 
It is designed to better synchronize material flows, lower costs and improve collaboration across operations. The solution fills some of the “white spaces” or gaps around enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications in Lean Manufacturing environments, says the vendor, benefiting manufacturers who seek to reduce waste and cut cycle times while improving quality in logistics operations, production and customer responsiveness. The solution is said to synchronize material flows spanning manufacturing operations to eliminate idle inventories while delivering integrated quality execution and packaged logistics with best-in-class label printing and “Poke Yoke” or error-proofing to reduce manufacturing costs.Apriso Inc.www.apriso.com562.951.8000
