ERP for process manufacturing
ERP for process manufacturing is specifically designed to manage the unique needs of industries like food and beverage, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics where production is recipe- or formula-based rather than assembly-driven.
Unlike discrete manufacturing, process manufacturing relies on precise batch control, traceability, compliance, and quality assurance. ERP systems tailored for this sector support functions such as ingredient tracking, lot traceability, regulatory compliance (e.g., FDA, GMP), and yield optimization.
Solutions like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, when extended with process manufacturing capabilities, help businesses streamline production, manage formulas, and ensure consistent product quality while also improving supply chain visibility and operational efficiency.
