More opportunities for the mechanical engineering industry with
Companies in the engineering industry are under particular pressure.
On the one hand, they must fulfil current market requirements and meet the changing needs of consumers.
On the other hand, they must constantly develop and improve their own business, because in mechanical engineering, outdated production technologies, non-automated control, and lack of communication between company departments are especially noticeable.
The quality of the final product and relations with consumers will suffer in such companies.
Understanding the challenges of the engineering industry, SAP Business One has created a separate solution to improve company efficiency, build communication between every part of the enterprise, increase inventory turnover and reduce stock balances, maintain product quality and help develop customer relationships.
TG Consulting focuses on industry-specific specifications and helps your business to grow effectively through functional platforms or their individual modules.

What benefits you will get with SAP Business One
1. Faster and more efficient quotation of goods
With SAP Business One software, you can quickly calculate the exact product cost, selling price and margin calculation for easy cost estimation.
Compare your planned and actual production and purchasing costs to better calculate your margins and profitability. To complete the picture, we can integrate third-party solutions using the built-in tool and make the quoting process much easier.
2. Resource optimization
Capacity planning maximizes production and reduces the number of equipment replacements and cleaning to meet increasing demand.
Calculate initial delivery dates with advance planning. In combination with the advanced planning function, you can plan material availability and capacity at the same time to calculate the actual delivery date.
Installing production data terminals or direct connection to machine data will provide a closed loop system.
3. Managing and coordinating the work of external subcontractors
SAP Business One allows companies to define processes that include waste, scrap and by-products. Thus, when you execute planning cycles, the created production plans will determine the amount of by-products or waste generated by each plan.
With revision management, you can effectively manage multiple active specifications at the same time. By analysing the impact of changes across the enterprise from forecasting to MRP, purchasing to production and inventory to sales order, you can manage the entire lifecycle to ensure that the right products are available to meet customer demand.
4. Reduce the obsolescence of your inventory
For mechanical engineering, real-time inventory and the accuracy of available materials are critical to support production order planning and forecast purchasing. This is especially true if some of your suppliers have components that take a long time to deliver or manufacture.
Supply and demand management SAP Business One balances your inventory and ensures that the right components in the right quantities are in stock at the right time. This means reducing inventory aging due to product changes that have a positive impact on your financial result.
5. Achievement of industry quality standards
In mechanical engineering, manual paper-based quality control systems are still in place. Such a stand-alone quality system is a waste of valuable time and resources every time you need to conduct a quality audit.
Quality control allows businesses to determine what, when and which products are inspected, providing complete auditing and electronic documentation of quality control procedures and processes.
