Engineer-to-Order ERP Now to Include ConfiguratorWritten by Roger Meloy
Encompix ETO ERP software leader based in Cincinnati, OH, announced inclusion of proprietary ETO Configurator as part of company’s product suite. The ETO Configurator is based on Configure One’s concept product and is specifically design for engineer-to-order manufacturers. Unlike most project configurators that can handle only simple configuration challenges, ETO Configurator can handle very complex product rules normally associated with engineer-to-order, project-based, or custom manufacturers. Roger Meloy, Marketing Director with Encompix, note, “The ETO Configurator dramatically reduces time it takes to go from a customer’s initial request for a quote to when product is actually shipped by streamlining and automating much of pre-manufacturing process. This includes creation of quotes, sales and production drawings, routings, and bill of material (BOM.) The data is seamlessly integrated with other Encompix components and is used to create a routing and a complete indented BOM in Emcompix.”
