Plant construction is a real risk business. Everything revolves around materials. Resource management is the Business process, which can even save companies in an emergency. The right ERP-system helps to reduce risks.
Plant manufacturers often have to make huge advance payments for their orders. Material is planned so that it is available for production at the right time. However, the material must not put a strain on warehouse capacities. A challenge for any management team. But it is not the only one.
Optimised availability in plant engineering with SAP Business One
It is obvious that this form of optimised availability for plant engineering can only be achieved with an ERP solution that enables optimum control of the material flow. It must be possible to plan not only the use, but also the purchase of parts and components in the project. Deadlines should always be clearly integrated and the software must be able to remind users of them. In addition, the automation of processes - if possible - helps enormously, resources to save money. This creates more capacity for purchasing, on which - as already mentioned - a lot depends.
An uncomplicated view of optimal offers can also minimise the risk in materials management. Quick access to the right suppliers is necessary and should be guaranteed by the ERP system. A clear evaluation of enquiries is also necessary. Further steps such as ordering, monitoring and goods receipt should also be fully integrated.
This gives plant manufacturers the opportunity to determine the optimum price from the optimum supplier and thus calculate their project. Although this does not fundamentally rule out risk, it does reduce it and makes risks for plant engineering and construction more predictable.
