Good Software Needed for Smooth Running Operations

Just as lubricants make for the smooth running of your machinery, good software designed specifically for your industry is needed for the smooth operation of your business. To say the lubricant industry is complex is an understatement. The type of lubricant can vary based on its application - automotive, industrial, and mining to name of few. Correspondingly, software must enable you to quickly adjust formulas for variations in ingredients, measurements, and routings. Adding to the mix are constantly changing raw material costs, affecting profit margins and customer pricing. And, it doesn't end there. The lubricant industry is heavily regulated by the EPA, OSHA, and DOT. Having software that helps your company stay in compliance is not a nicety; it's a must! And you still have to satisfy the back office functions of accounting, purchasing, payables, and receivables. Clearly, you need software that meets these objectives and more. You need software built from the ground up, to specifications of the lubricant industry, and not a "forced fit" to your environment.

The Challenges

To meet these objectives and stay competitive, adhesive manufacturers are confronted with a number of challenges. Prominent among them are:

Scale formulas easily based on on-hand inventory levels

Substitute ingredients to create alternate formulas for producing the same finished good

 

Support extensive end-to-end lot tracking from production lines to customer's shelves

  Ability to repackage product to meet customer demand
  Need for accurate and timely forecasts of customer orders
  Support the requirements of private labeling and packaging
 

Control and optimize inventory levels to reduce carrying costs and increase product availability

Provide a powerful, flexible pricing engine to meet the specific needs of customers and products

Support mass updating of price lists and matrices based on changes in raw materials

Increase the likelihood of fulfilling customer orders through available / capable-to-promise capabilities

Facilitate the generation of MDSD documents for products and product lines

Generate bills of lading that are in compliance with constantly changing DOT guidelines

Provide visibility to and analysis of real-time, enterprise-wide information throughout the supply chain
