Built With a Clear Focus
QAD works with key high tech industry organizations to ensure our software stays current with the latest technologies and best practices. QAD also actively works with customers in a number of development and industry groups.
Learning from these initiatives, QAD builds it solution to include the best processes and features to help high tech manufacturers readily adapt to the innovation, production, delivery, financial and supply chain management needs of today’s global marketplace.
Focus on Shortening Concept to Market
QAD Enterprise Applications help high tech manufacturers turn innovations into market share with an integrated ERP solution that addresses all the processes needed to minimize the time from concept to market. QAD Configurator reduces the impact on engineering by helping manufacturers to customize and personalize products for each customer order. The cloud-deployed QAD Supplier Portal ensures that your supply chain can respond to your forecasts and real-time demand changes even given shortened lifecycles.
Focus on Contract Manufacturing
Contract manufacturing is popular because it enables high tech manufacturers to focus on core competencies, leverage global supply chains and meet uneven demand. Ensuring contract manufacturers act as your direct extensions, however, is essential in managing production and the supply chain.
Cloud solutions make sense in a shared manufacturing environment, and QAD Managed EDI and QAD Supplier Portal enable contract manufacturers to participate easily and directly in a manufacturer’s supply chain, and with trading partners and distributors. QAD Consignment Inventory supports VMI (vendor managed inventory) and simplifies receiving and payables processing. Consignment inventory also manages consigned inventory at a customer site.
Focus on Delivering Customer Unique Product Variations
QAD Customer Self Service’s integration with QAD Configurator allows customers to configure products without assistance over the Web. QAD Transportation Management System is a complete solution for freight and rate management, and it supports package shipments directly to customers regardless of the mode or location. It gives you visibility into all shipments from carrier pick-up through delivery and includes electronic carrier status updates.
Focus on Compliance
Complying with safety and environmental standards is the norm in high tech manufacturing today. QAD makes it easy for high tech manufacturers to comply with standards like ISO, WEEE, ROHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substance) through the QAD QMS (Quality Management System). QAD also enables companies to configure quality control processes as part of standard production. You can incorporate test specs and standards directly into routings or item information, and record the results of quality tests for each serial number or lot you produce.
QAD Lean Manufacturing offers visual controls, and serialization enables palletizing any number of serialized or lot controlled items and transacting the entire pallet in a single transaction, even if the pallet includes multiple item numbers or lots.
Built for the Cloud and on Premise Use, Available as Subscription or Capital Investment
While cloud may be preferred among large multinational companies, on-premise may be better choice for smaller companies - mostly because it enables more flexibility at implementations. Both cloud and on premise are available for subscription; on premise is also available as capital investment.
ERP as a Service has two major advantages:
- No need to make Capital Investment.
- We take care for your Information Technology, and you take care for your Products - everybody doing what knows the best.
