Take control of your business today
FactoryMaster manufacturing software gives you full and instant visibility of everything that matters in your specific business. It could be that delivery and quality are top of your list if you are a precision manufacturer... or maybe you are more concerned about product consistency if you are a food manufacturer.

Secure and increase your sales.
It may be hard to imagine how any MRP software can improve your sales... but in fact close control and visibility of your manufacturing process is a key driver to enable you to grow your sales.
People buy from companies when they are confident they can deliver a good product at a competitive price, on time. This is exactly what our manufacturing software enables your business to deliver.
Control = Confidence = Securing and growing your customer base. Back to top

Improve Cashflow
Cashflow is the lifeblood of any business and of paramount importance to survival and controlled growth. FactoryMaster MRP software enables you to run as a lean manufacturer, only buying what you need when you need and minimising working capital requirement. Back to top

Retain existing customer base
It costs 8 times as much to acquire a new customer than to retain an existing one. You are more likely to retain a customer if you can achieve consistent delivery on time and with a competitive price. Back to top

Enhance business confidence
What would make you decide to buy from another business? We would want to have confidence in their ability to deliver a quality product on time at a competitive price, managed by a professional company. Back to top

Increase Sales
If cashflow is the lifeblood of a business, acquiring new customers and sales are not far behind. FactoryMaster gives you the ability to track all interactions you have with customers and prospects to see what you have done for them and when. It also provides a detailed breakdown of costs involved in your products so you can quote competitively knowing you are still making an appropriate margin. Back to top

Clear product profitability
Companies quite often unwittingly sell products at a loss because they cannot access accurate costing data. FactoryMaster MRP software provides you with an instant detailed cost breakdown, even down to the smallest part if necessary, so you can instantly see where you are, or more importantly aren't, making a profit. Back to top

Comprehensive customer activity
Is knowing your customers a good thing or a bad thing? It's hard to argue that it is a bad thing and if you believe that you need to gain the confidence of your customer then this is the kind of attention to detail that you need to show. Having all the information to support you at the click of a button can only help enhance your reputation with the customer. Back to top

Help achieve quality mark accreditations
Modern manufacturing companies compete heavily on quality and innovation. Quality mark accreditation is becoming more of a necessity than an item of choice. Quality accreditation can differentiate you against the competition. FactoryMasters manufacturing software already helps many companies gain and maintain their quality mark accreditation. It provides the context, controls and visibility of the vital elements that underpin most quality mark accreditations. Back to top

Increase profitability and productivity
Exercising tight financial control over business activities directly relates to profitability of individual products and the overall bottom line. FactoryMasters manufacturing software helps you monitor all aspects of your productivity, which in turn directly enhances your profitability. Back to top

Enhance delivery performance
What is the effect on your business of late delivery by a supplier? Would you do more business with such a supplier? FactoryMasters MRP software allows you to take full control of your delivery performance to not only ensure that deliveries are made on time, but also to give your customer fair notice for any unforeseen delays that might adversely impact on the delivery of these items. Back to top

Reduce working capital required
Working capital headroom is often critical to any business. FactoryMaster gives you positive control over the production element of your business and therefore enables you to become a leaner manufacturer, which in turn puts less pressure on working capital. Back to top

Optimise material availability
It's hard to ship a car without the wheels. FactoryMaster MRP software gives you full visibility of what is required, when it is required and then prompts you to fulfill these requirements on time. Back to top

It also ensures you order it when you need it and not before. Keeping a minimum stock holding ensures you run as lean as possible and minimise expenditure and over production. Back to top

By utilising FactoryMasters full traceability you can determine exactly what went into an items as well as who worked on it and any other sub contract work. our FactoryMaster software also employs full serial number traceability. Back to top

Tight quality control
Can you put a cost on quality? "Right first time" is considerably cheaper than having to resend / reproduce a failed component. By using the extensive quality tracking and reporting within FactoryMaster you can quickly identify areas that need to be investigated. FactoryMaster users can employ product improvement reports and the 5'Y' principles if needed to help resolve quality issues. Back to top

Realtime view of production
Historical data is fine but realtime information is reality. Can you answer all your customers' questions accurately within a couple of clicks? FactoryMaster manufacturing software users can see exactly what stage of production any job is at with a click of the mouse. Having this information available gives you instant visibility of your customer orders as well as more accurate planning and scheduling of jobs. Back to top

By utilising the automatic features in FactoryMaster manufacturing software you know that when you dispatch an item it will get invoiced.

Negotiate better supplier prices
If you can give visibility of your pipeline could you negotiate better prices?

FactoryMaster has the ability to quickly and easily create supplier RFQ's (Request for quotations) these requests can be created in minutes and the faxed, emailed or posted to your suppliers, Responses from your suppliers are then tracked, you can then choose who to give the work to based upon price or quality? Working in parallel with this are FactoryMasters supplier schedules, these allow you to give visibility of your work for a period of time to your suppliers to help you negotiate better supplier pricing.

Reduce wastage
Do you know how much your scrap and reworks costs? With the ever increasing cost of raw materials and the work that goes into a product it is more important than ever to be able to minimise any scrap or rework that may occur. FactoryMasters manufacturing software has the ability to monitor all scrap and rework and gives you accurate costs so you know exactly how much time, effort and money has been lost. Underlying all this is the ability to identify why scrap occurred and get to the root cause using the built in quality tracking facilities.
