Innovate faster, reducing the cost and complexity of new product introduction and ongoing management
Product Management serves as the central hub for your process and product data and history. It helps provide collaboration and data exchange among enterprise users who interact with your products—including product managers, engineers, salespeople, buyers, and quality assurance representatives. It controls the process to ensure the right product is built using the right bill of material, routing, and specifications.
Benefits
Easily develop a single source of truth for each product you build, ensuring accurate product builds and custom acceptance. Pull from CAD and PLM systems to even greater accuracy.
Deliver accurate estimates from quoting through to production with specifications in the Method of Manufacturing (MoM) that serves simple single level and multilevel assemblies with bill of material (BOM) and bill of operations (BOO) or routing accurately. Method (MoM) accuracy assures costing and scheduling effectiveness.
Epicor delivers unique make-to-order capabilities that include “part on the fly” a process that supports products only made once. Epicor also delivers configure price quote (CPQ) to speed customer-driven configurations with automation in delivering them to production.
Build your bill of material (BOM) and bill of operations (BOO) more easily with Kinetic. Leverage indented tree structures and drag-and-drop Method Management to more easily update and visualize single and multi-level components.
The engineering workbench gives engineers an area to manage all engineering tasks related to the modification, review, and approval of assemblies—including full revision updating and control, check-out procedures, security, engineering change orders, BOM maintenance, what-if BOM maintenance, what-if cost rollups, adding parts, placing parts on hold, and product routing maintenance.
Epicor drag-and-drop attachments support the ability to manage and view attachments against any record or application process. With respect to BOMs, additional functionality exists to allow attachments linked to end products and components to automatically flow to production planning and— eventually—the production floor, helping ensure strong control of product and process documentation at each product revision and production run. Epicor ECM delivers an online document repository and workflow to deliver strong document security and control.
For companies who do not require the full product lifecycle management solution, CADLink by QBuild Software for Epicor increases the speed of engineering data flowing from the engineer’s desktop to the rest of the manufacturing business—in particular procurement and manufacturing. The CADLink for Epicor solution is designed to streamline the entire product development process, letting engineers push forward BOM revisions to Kinetic with a click of a button without leaving their familiar CAD environment.
LEARN MOREThe costing workbench supports the management of part costs in a single location. Specialized tools pull in the most recent costs and automatically perform cost rollups. Designed with full audit capabilities, the workbench offers variance analysis prior to posting new cost tables along with the effective dates of the costing changes. The costing workbench offers easy manipulation of resource, resource group, and operation cost. Maintain and view costing by part type and cost type, while accessing this information throughout the system.
Configurator enables on-the-fly configuration of highly customizable and dimensional products via a straightforward question and answer evaluation. Integrated with ERP, configurations are easily priced and once sold, manufacturing details flow to procurement and production, helping ensure accurate and timely manufacturing of highly configurable products. Epicor CPQ extends configuration capabilities, creating customer digital experiences that differentiate your business.
Epicor Connected Process Control is a no-code/low-code process control system with embedded digital work instructions that you can build with your methods. This solution steps operators through tasks, and has the ability to connect to almost any device with communication capability.
