What is production control software?

Production control software, sometimes referred to as production management software, stock management software, bill of materials software, MRP and ERP, is used to control materials and resources (labour and machinery) in a manufacturing business, with the aim of optimising the stock levels, whilst minimising the cost and time taken to produce manufactured parts or assemblies.

Using these inputs, your jobs can be launched created and your materials can be purchased. Once the materials have arrived, your the jobs can then be managed through the through the factory, through to despatch and invoicing.

For example a large, steady state business (typically manufacturing repeatable products) may require a strong degree of customisation, in which case they need a complex, highly configurable production control system.
