Custom Manufacturing Software

Moulders Consulting: Offering Top-Quality Custom Manufacturing Software

At Moulders Consulting, we specialise in creating custom manufacturing software specifically tailored to the unique needs of manufacturers.

Designed by manufacturing professionals with over 40 years of combined experience, our systems are built by people who truly understand the challenges and opportunities in the sector. Our team brings expertise from a range of roles, including sales, marketing, operations, and management, ensuring well-rounded and effective solutions.

Our expertise has enabled us to introduce cutting-edge MRP and ERP systems that help manufacturers streamline their processes, improve efficiency, and achieve better results.

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) systems are central to managing the resources needed for manufacturing. They ensure that the right materials are available at the right time to keep production running smoothly.

Here’s how the process works:

Production Schedule Development: The MRP system calculates production quantities based on customer demand and inventory levels, creating a clear production plan.

Material Requirements Calculation: The system determines the type and amount of materials needed to meet production goals, factoring in waste margins.

Inventory Check: The system ensures there’s enough stock to meet production needs.

Purchase Order Generation: If inventory falls short, the MRP system creates detailed purchase orders, specifying quantities, delivery dates, and other key details.

Progress Tracking: The system monitors purchase orders, keeping track of delivery schedules, delays, or issues.

Plan Adjustments: If changes arise, the MRP system adapts the production plan to keep everything on track.

By simplifying these complex processes, our MRP systems help manufacturers operate more efficiently, reduce waste, and stay competitive in a demanding industry.
