Manufacturers searching “does ERP work for manufacturing” already know Excel lies about WIP. The Capricon Core question is whether BOM governance and floor capture will be owned—not whether software can draw a Gantt chart.

Shop-floor readiness signals

  • Agreed units of measure and BOM owners.
  • Clear work-order status language on the floor.
  • Material issue discipline before overtime mythology.
  • Costing rules finance will defend in variance meetings.
  • Training plan for supervisors who will not live in a desktop ERP all day.

Frequently asked questions

When do manufacturers need ERP beyond accounting?

When BOMs, WIP, materials consumption, and finished-goods costing must stay tied to finance—and spreadsheet planning cannot explain variance.

Should we go big-bang on shop-floor modules?

Rarely. Stabilize inventory, purchasing, and costing masters first; then phase WIP and shop-floor capture with measurable throughput goals.

How does Capricon Core help?
