Rootstock’s ERP for manufacturing gives you complete visibility, control and traceability, helping you manage changing demand, short product lifecycles and evolving regulatory requirements.
Automated Supply Chain Processes
Rootstock’s streamlined automation allows all of your information to flow naturally through the entire enterprise, making your supply chain completely transparent:
- Plan, track, and cost inventory items by contract.
- Define primary vendors for direct material items to ensure supplies from qualified vendors and streamline the purchasing process.
- Maintain historical purchase prices with standard material costs.
Powerful Engineering Management Tools
Production Engineering helps you manage components, sub-assemblies, bills of material (BOMs), routings and engineering changes, no matter how complex they are.
As-Designed versus As-Built work order inquiries allow engineering and manufacturing to collaborate on pending engineering changes that may impact production.
