Use Cases
The Manufacturing Module flexibly supports diverse production models across discrete assembly, process chemical batching, and secondary packaging lines.
1. Discrete Machinery & Electronics Assembly (Make-to-Order)
Business Scenario: An industrial equipment manufacturer builds customized machinery against confirmed commercial sales orders requiring multi-level BOM explosion and sub-assembly staging.
- Primary Applets: Production Planning and Monitoring Applet, Process Maintenance Applet, Manufacturing Operation Applet
- Operational Flow: Commercial sales order triggers work order release → MRP calculates sub-assembly shortages → sub-assemblies built at dedicated work centers → final machine assembly completed and tested.
2. Process Chemical & Food Batch Manufacturing (Make-to-Stock)
Business Scenario: A beverage processing plant manufactures liquids in large automated batches requiring strict component mixing ratios, quality inspection checkpoints, and lot tracing.
- Primary Applets: Production Planning and Monitoring Applet, Manufacturing Operation Applet, Stock Balance Applet
- Operational Flow: Master batch scheduled → raw ingredients weighed and issued to mixing tanks → Quality Assurance approves lab sample → liquid transferred to filling line with lot number assignment.
3. Secondary Packaging & Retail Kitting Operations
Business Scenario: A consumer goods distributor repackages bulk manufactured products into retail-ready multipacks or seasonal promotional gift sets.
- Primary Applets: Internal Packing Order Applet, Stock Conversion Applet
- Operational Flow: Bulk finished inventory issued to packing line → custom barcode packaging materials applied → internal packing order completed → retail multipack stock-in posted.
