Numerous products with multiple variants and strong time-to-market pressure characterize the discrete manufacturing industry.
Whether you are forging & machining parts or stamping out 1000 parts per minute you need a system that keeps you lean and agile. From punching and stamping to casting, brazing, shearing, and spinning (including support for your die and tool maintenance), Lighthouse ERP software is specially designed with your production needs in mind to help you handle every step in the fabrication process. Lighthouse ERP for automobile and engineering metal processes offers to help with keeping your machines running smoothly, your production schedules accurate, and your scrap and rejects low.
In discrete manufacturing industry producing distinct items often requires complex and customized production processes. Dealing with Different configurations, changes in design also managing different production processes becomes difficult.
The production process in the discrete manufacturing industry has needs planning for specific quantities of items, as per the bill of material, to maintain the required inventory for the on-time production process.
The demand is make to order based, which needs planning specific to customer requirements. so production planning is critical to manage proper product delivery.
The production process is complex in discrete manufacturing and quality checks are required throughout the process at multiple stages, which is a challenge for the manufacturer.
With Lighthouse ERP, manufacturers can manage and automate the production process through a single platform. This reduces errors and improves efficiency.
Manufacturers can track real-time inventory levels and get the data on time which allows them to maintain optimal stock levels.
Lighthouse ERP systems automate production planning and scheduling, ensuring resources are allocated efficiently and production stays on track.
ERP Software for discrete manufacturing allow manufacturers to set and monitor quality standards at every stage of production. This reduces defects and errors and improves customer satisfaction.

The Finance module in ERP manages all the financial transactions in the industry such as accounting, budgeting, and financial reporting. Tracking the cost of industry essentials, managing expenses, maintaining the budget, optimizing cost allocation and monitoring profitability is possible with this module.
With the material management module, the manufacturer can manage raw materials and ensure the right material is available at the right time which avoids production delays. It manages the procurement process and tracks inventory levels for individual parts in the discrete manufacturing industry.
In the discrete manufacturing industry, the sales and distribution module manages customer orders, forecasts sales according to demand, schedules delivery, and generates invoices. It helps in maintaining coordination between the different processes from production to shipment of products.
The production module in the discrete manufacturing industry helps define the bill of materials (BOM), production routing, and work orders for each item being manufactured. The quality of the product is maintained with a quality control module which ensures quality standards are maintained at every stage of production from raw materials to finished goods.
With this module, the production of products is planned and scheduled, it gives updates on material requirements, capacity planning, and resource allocation. This module makes sure the right materials, skilled labor, and machinery are all set up and ready when needed, so production stays on track.
