The proposed uses an ERP System in all divisions of business to order, track and maintain inventory, hours, resources and purchases as well as the use of those products. The ERP system provides up to the minute accounting reports on demand as well as tracking current lead times, pricing, costs and margins for all materials allowing detailed reports of each component, product and project undertaken, ensuring availability of the master item and its subcomponents prior to implementation. The ERP system provides built-in controls allowing users a set of permissions that limit their ability to alter, change or influence another areas without supervisor or admin authority.
