The Acumatica Manufacturing Edition is ideal for Make-to-Order (MTO) and Engineer-to-Order (ETO) manufacturers that rely on speed and quality. When your customer places a custom order, the clock starts ticking. There are so many moving parts involved with delivering a quality product on time. It quickly gets very tricky to track everything without the right tools and strategies in place. It's crucial to have the right information at the right time in order to compete and win. Successful assembly or custom build manufacturing companies rely on integrated and automated systems to keep up with growing demand.
This Acumatica Manufacturing whitepaper is designed to help you understand what you need to track and how to track it in the job shop.

About Clients First
Business software should increase productivity, improve profitability, and be easy for staff to use. Most of today’s ERP solutions are good at finance and have horizontal niches for distribution, manufacturing, maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) for aviation and heavy equipment. This makes searching for a software solution more about what the implementation partner can do to help you get the most out of the system. That is why Clients First is not a software company--we are a business solutions and services company.
