More than just a manufacturing software, Advanced BCE unifies all elements of a business, allowing for complete control over finances, operations, production, payroll, contracts and much more. After all, business owners should be able to rely on one IT system to control all aspects of their business.
Aimed at SMEs, Business Cloud Essentials is a cloud-based ERP system that’s designed to facilitate growth for manufacturers. By making many tasks easier, and by automating many processes (as well as providing invaluable insight), the system can be transformational for small to mid-size companies.
The platform is delivered as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) so its easily accessible through any web browser and the pricing model allows businesses to scale their usage as required.
Solving Key Issues
Advanced BCE tackles many problems that small manufacturing companies face, including:
- The need for separate systems - For a lot of manufacturers, high customer expectations, paired with out-of-date ununified systems, means that a lot of time is spent simply trying to get the job done.
Advanced BCE combats this by unifying all business operations into a single, fully-integrated platform that makes problem solving easy.
- Unable to increase production levels - Scheduling and planning is one of the biggest challenges for many manufacturers. With many parts to the production process, including people and machinery, it can be hard to get production right.
Advanced BCE tackles this by unifying all production operations into a single platform that manages both people and machinery scheduling.
- No clear view of cash flow - With no clear view of finances, it can be difficult for a business to know what position it is in. How can you plan for the future, if you don’t even know what is around the corner?
