5 Features to Look for in Rubber & Plastic Manufacturing ERP


When searching for an ERP system to implement, rubber and plastic manufacturers sometimes fail to look for specific functionality related to the industry.


Failure to do this often lead to missing the mark, selecting the wrong system, and laying the framework for ERP implementation failure.


Caution:Choosing a generic ERP system instead of one designed to fit the needs of the rubber and plastic industry, you may face expensive customizations and complicated ongoing maintenance.

This also lengthens implementation times considerably.


To avoid choosing the wrong system and all the trouble that comes along with it, look for the following 5 ERP features/modules which are crucial to your rubber and plastic manufacturing processes.


1. Lot Traceability• Lot traceability functionality gives you the power

to track which supplier lots of product were used in each end product, and who received those finished products.• This is especially important in the event of a

product recall, as you will have all the information you need to quickly stop the damage and control the situation.


2. Production SchedulingProduction scheduling is crucial to reduce cost and maximize efficiency. With production scheduling capabilities you will be able to track all production planning processes and work the way you need to for improved productivity and accuracy.


3. Supply Chain Management Features• Supply chain management gives you complete control

and insight to manage and track raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and end products from the point of origin to final consumption.• The right system promotes tight collaboration

throughout the supply chain

4. A Complete Financial Module

An effective ERP system can give your company complete access to personal, financial, cost, and budgeting accounting all in one place.

This allows for more efficient record-keeping and better business decisions.


5. Plant Maintenance ModulePlant maintenance modules provide your company with a unified solution for aiding the operational needs of a company-wide system.

In short, this module can support operational needs, keep you organized in terms of plant and machine maintenance, maximize the life of your equipment, and help improve processes across your organization.
