Custom Manufacturing ERP
Project Overview
A leading developer and manufacturer of advanced concrete materials faced significant challenges with outdated software. The software, developed over 25 years ago, was running on a Windows XP virtual machine, and lacked the necessary functionality to meet the manufacturer’s evolving operational needs. To bridge the gap, the manufacturer relied heavily on Microsoft Excel, resulting in cumbersome manual data entry and calculations by management.
After extensive research, the manufacturing organization opted to modernize their existing custom application over purchasing an off-the-shelf ERP.
Solution Overview
Mantrax partnered with the manufacturing client to modernize their systems and streamline operations. Key elements of the solution included:
Fresh UI Design
We introduced a user interface that balanced familiarity with modern design principles, simplifying the learning curve while enhancing robustness.
Database Redesign
The existing database was completely overhauled to meet industry standards, simplifying backend processes and incorporating essential missing features.
Core Functionality Enhancement
We refined and simplified core functions to reduce redundant user inputs, ensuring data integrity and improving overall efficiency.
Services Provided
Consulting and Discovery
Comprehensive in-person workshop to understand current state processes and design future state processes. The workshop resulted in a detailed functional specification outlining the scope of ERP modernization.
UI/UX Design
A user-centered design approach ensured a smooth transition to the new system. As part of agile development, wireframes for each module was designed and approved by client before starting development.
