The NetSuite Manufacturing Edition is a robust cloud-based ERP solution tailored to meet the specific needs of manufacturers. It integrates core business operations, including production planning, inventory management, supply chain, financials, and customer relationship management (CRM), into a single unified platform. This allows manufacturers to streamline processes, gain real-time visibility, and optimise operations from the shop floor to the top floor.
Designed for both discrete and process manufacturers, the Manufacturing Edition supports complex production environments, ensuring businesses can manage demand, improve efficiency, and deliver high-quality products to customers while maintaining profitability.
Efficient production planning is vital for manufacturers to meet customer demand while managing costs. NetSuite Manufacturing Edition provides tools to create detailed production plans that optimise resource utilisation, minimise downtime, and ensure on-time delivery.
The system supports both build-to-stock and build-to-order workflows, enabling manufacturers to adapt to diverse customer requirements. With real-time updates and visibility into production schedules, businesses can respond quickly to changes in demand or supply chain disruptions.
Manufacturers rely on accurate and up-to-date information about materials and processes. The Manufacturing Edition includes comprehensive BOM and routing management capabilities, allowing businesses to define and track the components, subassemblies, and labour required for each product.
The system ensures that BOMs are dynamically linked to production processes, enabling accurate cost calculations and efficient production workflows. This helps businesses maintain product quality while optimising costs and resource usage.
NetSuite Manufacturing Edition empowers manufacturers with tools to manage shop floor activities in real time. Businesses can monitor production progress, track work orders, and capture data directly from the shop floor, providing visibility into key performance metrics such as yield, scrap rates, and machine utilisation.
With mobile-friendly interfaces and real-time updates, the system enables shop floor teams to stay connected and productive, reducing delays and ensuring alignment with production goals.
Inventory management is a critical challenge for manufacturers, and NetSuite Manufacturing Edition provides real-time visibility into stock levels, locations, and movements. The system supports multi-location inventory tracking, lot and serial number management, and reorder point optimisation.
By integrating inventory with production planning and sales, businesses can ensure that raw materials and finished goods are always available when needed, reducing stockouts and overstocking. These capabilities enhance operational efficiency and improve cash flow.
Effective supply chain management is essential for manufacturers to maintain a competitive edge. NetSuite Manufacturing Edition provides tools to manage procurement, supplier relationships, and logistics, ensuring that materials are sourced cost-effectively and delivered on time.
The platform includes features such as vendor performance tracking, automated purchase orders, and real-time shipment tracking. These capabilities enable businesses to optimise supply chain operations, reduce lead times, and improve overall reliability.
Anticipating demand accurately is crucial for aligning production and inventory with customer needs. NetSuite Manufacturing Edition includes advanced demand planning tools that analyse historical sales data, market trends, and seasonality to create reliable forecasts.
With these insights, manufacturers can optimise production schedules, reduce waste, and improve customer satisfaction by ensuring products are available when and where they are needed.
Maintaining high-quality standards is a priority for manufacturers, particularly those operating in regulated industries. NetSuite Manufacturing Edition automates quality checks at every stage of production, ensuring that products meet internal standards and regulatory requirements.
The system also simplifies compliance with industry regulations by providing audit trails, automated documentation, and detailed reporting. These tools help businesses minimise risks, maintain customer trust, and protect their reputation.
Strong customer relationships are essential for long-term success in manufacturing. The integrated CRM functionality in NetSuite Manufacturing Edition provides a complete view of customer interactions, enabling businesses to track sales, manage accounts, and nurture relationships.
By integrating CRM with production and inventory data, manufacturers can provide accurate delivery timelines, personalised service, and proactive communication, enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty.
NetSuite Manufacturing Edition delivers comprehensive financial tools to manage costs, revenue, and profitability. The system automates accounting processes such as billing, accounts payable and receivable, and tax compliance, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
With real-time insights into financial performance, decision-makers can monitor KPIs such as production costs, gross margins, and cash flow. These capabilities enable businesses to make informed decisions to improve profitability and support strategic growth.
Data-driven decision-making is crucial for manufacturers to stay competitive. NetSuite Manufacturing Edition provides real-time analytics and reporting tools that deliver actionable insights into production performance, inventory levels, and financial health.
Customisable dashboards allow users to monitor key metrics such as overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), inventory turnover, and on-time delivery rates. These insights enable businesses to identify areas for improvement and implement strategies to optimise operations.
