Developed by Our Users:

Our industry-specific features are not by accident. Our customers are crucial partners in the design and development of our manufacturing ERP software and 90 percent of the developments to our ERP system come directly from user suggestions. IQMS is one of the few ERP companies that engages in a two-way, ongoing dialogue with our customers to give them the specific tools they need to realize tangible benefits. Some of the many industry-specific options that IQMS offers to help with your material-specific processes include:

  • Flexible Units of Measure: When you are storing in feet, producing in rolls and purchasing in pounds, constantly changing units of measure can get complicated. IQMS offers flexible units of measure with automatic built-in conversions so your quantity is accurate every time.
  • Material Usage & Consumption Features: Add and consume raw materials for accurate inventory control. Based on your operation, tools include scrap rates, regrind usage, remelt, waste, purge, preforms, skeleton, parison/flash and runner/sprue options for material consumption.
  • Multi-Level, Industry-Specific Bills of Manufacture: Unlimited, pre-defined, tool-based BOMs meet the unique needs of your processes and reflect critical interdependencies for accurate scheduling and planning.
  • Multi-Tool & Family Tool Functionality: Family tooling is easily supported and the system is designed to understand multiple part numbers within the same physical tool.
  • Production Flexibility: Produce parts by shot weight, part weight, part length, eaches or in batches for accurate tracking.
  • RealTime™ Production Monitoring System: Take shop floor control to a new level with real-time machine monitoring that automatically tracks production data (such as total parts created, rejects, production time, downtime and parts remaining) directly from your work centers and updates production schedules and inventory instantaneously.
  • Shelf Life Management: Take a proactive role in tracking and moving inventory with characteristics that limit shelf life. Once the shelf life has expired, the inventory is automatically identified as non-conforming and electronic alerts are sent out.
