Aptean, represented in South Africa by Rifle-Shot Performance Holdings, has announced that its Ross ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solution has been certified by Technology Evaluation Centres (TEC) for its process manufacturing suite.
Rifle-Shot Performance Holdings is a specialist solutions provider and distributor whilst Aptean is an international software company specialising in CRM, ERP and Supply Chain software applications.
“Ross ERP ranks higher than the average competitive solution in the process manufacturing ERP solution space”, said Ted Rohm, senior research analyst at TEC.
“TEC data shows that Ross is stronger than the average solution in the financials, process manufacturing management, inventory management, quality management and sales management functional areas.
“The Ross business platform is rich and full-featured, providing all the key tools an organisation needs to make the most out of an ERP system investment,” he says.
Aptean’s Ross ERP solution is designed to significantly improve production scalability and product visibility for manufacturers that work with recipes and formulas.
Ross ERP helps successfully manage the variability and complexities of their products and processes, as well as accurately account for all raw material and finished products. From one plant to dozens, in multiple countries, languages and currencies, Ross ERP also can be easily rolled out to achieve business process standardisation across a global enterprise.
Addressing specific needs of process manufacturers regarding recipe and formula management, the capabilities of Ross ERP were confirmed during TEC certification sessions, and the solution was certified in TEC’s ERP manufacturing model.
The study noted a number of particular needs addressed by Ross, including:
* Product traceability;
* Regulatory compliance;
* Product costing;
* Quality control;
* Recipe, material and yield management;
* Inventory management; and
* Financial reporting.
