ERP Manufacturing Features Built for Production Efficiency

ERP System for the Manufacturing Industry

Connect your production floor to the rest of your business with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. From demand planning and scheduling to shop floor execution and financial reporting, every part of your operation runs from one system with real-time data at every step.

With 70+ years of combined ERP expertise, Tecvia’s team knows exactly what manufacturers need from an ERP system and how to deliver it.

Why Choose Business Central as Your Manufacturing ERP?

End-to-End Production Management

Create and manage production orders, define the components required, schedule capacity across work centres and track progress from released order to finished goods. Your entire production process lives in one place, fully connected to your inventory, purchasing and financials.

Demand-Driven Planning

Use Master Production Scheduling (MPS) and Material Requirements Planning (MRP) to plan production around actual demand. Business Central generates suggested production orders based on sales orders, forecasts and stock rules, so you always have the right materials at the right time without tying up unnecessary capital.

Real-Time Shop Floor Visibility

Give your team live data on the production floor. Log material consumption, report task progress and record output directly from mobile devices or terminals. Eliminate paperwork, reduce errors and get full visibility into every operation as it happens.
