Office Furniture - ERP Software

The Furniture and Case goods Industries have unique ERP requirements. To keep pace with the customer demands manufacturers are offering greatly expanded product lines and custom options. The wide variety of dimensions, colors, finishes, fabrics and product options are placing increased demands on information systems to provide the functionality and flexibility required to address all the business requirements. On top of this are the demands by customers for reduced delivery times.

Seradex software is specifically designed to support the manufacturing of office, case goods, seating, commercial, upholstered and specialty furniture. Whether selecting wood species and stain, determining the fabric options for a cubicle, or selecting edge treatments the Seradex system is designed for this industry.

The Product Configurator module streamlines the order fulfillment process associated with complex, customer-specified products. The configurator will ensure accurate sales quotes, product prices and discounts, customer delivery dates, bills of materials and routings, inventory shortage visibility and finished product costs.

Seradex addresses material availability, shipping schedules, product lead times and manufacturing capacity into the determination of an accurate promise date.
