Job shop software increases levels of communication between departments, providing manufacturing companies with the resources to quickly and easily implement changes to a given order. This software also provides needed data for detailed and accurate costs estimates used for billing and financial planning purposes. Here at Bowen & Groves, our M1 ERP software gives manufacturing companies the tools they need to react quickly in a volatile environment.

The Order Management and Job Management modules included in our M1 software combine to provide extensive job shop management. The order management module takes over when orders are received. These orders can be processed, changed and organized with ease, thus decreasing the total timeline associated with an order. All order changes can be accessed by all employees in relevant departments.

Once the order has been sent on for production, the Job Management module comes into play. This module is perfect for tracking and updating the status of the materials needed to complete an order. This module also takes overhead costs into account when creating cost estimates, giving you a firm grasp of the complete array of resources employed for any manufacturing job.

These two modules work together with other costing and production modules (such as the Advanced Bill of Materials module) to increase production efficiency across the board.
