From a modest beginning with only a handful of skilled
toolmakers, Advanced Machine & Tool Corporation (AMT), Fort
Wayne, Indiania, has become a world leader as a manufacturer of
stator production machines for the electric motor industry. On
October 1, 2005, AMT went live on Encompix software. The
eight-person "Champion Team" was led by Larry Kasper, CFO.
"Encompix is well-suited to engineer-to-order companies and is
user friendly in that regard," said Kasper.
Although they have only been live a few months, AMT is looking
forward to big benefits from Encompix. "We are expecting to be
able to reduce our costs with better control over our jobs.
Encompix handles multiple levels of cost, and the costing
information is a lot better than we had before. The historical
data will help us to create more accurate quotes in the future,"
said Kasper.
AMT is looking forward to upgrading to version 9.30. They are
planning to implement the APS module to help identify production
bottlenecks and improve manufacturing lead times. "With these
improvements, we believe we can increase production volume
without increasing our support staff," said Kasper.
Encompix (
www.encompix.com) has filled the manufacturing
software requirements of Engineer-to-Order companies since 1992.
The company name reflects the commitment to developing business
application solutions that encompass the complex areas of
project-based and job-based manufacturing. Encompix provides ETO
manufacturers with a competitive advantage by improving bottom
line results.
According to Thomas R. Cutler, spokesperson for the ETO
Institute (
www.etoinstitute.org), "Encompix continues to capture
significant marketshare in the ETO environment because few other
ERP vendors truly understand the nuances and significant
distinctions of the ETO process versus the repetitive
manufacturing process. Encompix now has more than 200 of the
leading ETO manufacturing firms in North America using their ERP
Software solution."
