Industrial Distribution Magazine Reports PRONTO North America ERP Leader in Sector

By: Thomas Cutler



PRONTO North America is profiled in Industrial Distribution
magazine;
http://www.manufacturing.net/ind/index.asp?layout=webOnlineSpecia
lZine&articleid=CA6287989. PRONTO North America is the leader in
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) solutions for both
distributors and manufacturers. 

All ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) vendors are reassessing
their target market, product functionality, and marketing
outreach efforts. Most ERP systems are not able to adapt to the
specific needs of distributors. While there are certain
functional duplications in some areas of manufacturer and
distributor operations, there are also several distinctions and
differences. Whether due to outsourcing, diversification,
company expansion, or simple survival, companies are
diversifying their offerings. 

According to TR Cutler, author of the feature article, "North
American manufacturers are becoming distributors because
outsourcing the manufacturing function redefines their role and
purpose in business. North American distributors are crossing
over more frequently and acquiring manufacturing firms as part
of their function to control and manage the capacity to deliver
product on time to their customers."

PRONTO North America (www.PRONTOERP.com) is the distribution ERP
leader: "We see clients expanding into different businesses
either by acquisition for growth purposes or internally just to
survive due to the amount of manufacturing that is being
outsourced to foreign countries."

As more distributors take on manufacturing functions and acquire
manufacturing operations to remain competitive, the capacity of
their ERP system to function in both environments becomes a
central factor in the efficacy of business expansion. Reduce
repetitive procedures, so data is entered only once. Less data
entry can mean fewer errors Track by serial numbers which allows
for comprehensive service records, sales, and profitability.
Most ERP vendors have positioned themselves for a specific
manufacturing or distribution application, creating limited
market appeal. Just because there is a cross-over occurring in
the marketplace does not mean most of these products can achieve
the cross-functionality required. 

Pronto North America is the North American Master Distributor of
PRONTO-Xi™, a comprehensive software system allowing
manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to effectively manage
all phases of their business. . From PRONTO Production to PRONTO
Advanced Warehousing; from PRONTO Planning to PRONTO Quality
Management System (QMS); from PRONTO Distribution Requirements
Planning (DRP) to PRONTO Forecasting Management, the breadth of
integrated elements addressed by PRONTO-Xi is unmatched in the
marketplace.
