Manufacturing and distribution trends are changing all the time. (You can see some 2014 trends here.) Though the trends fluctuate, it always stands that small and mid-sized distributors must continue improving their quality control, productivity, and competitiveness in order to level the playing field between themselves and larger distribution companies. To do so, many companies are looking at automation and software integration programs like Sage ERP X3. These ERP (an acronym for enterprise resource planning) systems offer increased control over all aspects of running a distribution company.
Here are some tips to use Sage ERP X3 to increase quality and competitiveness:

What does it take to have the highest level of quality control in your business? For every mistake made on your manufacturing floor, for every piece of work that needs to be reworked and either gets reworked or doesn’t before it’s sent out, your business loses valuable time, materials, and customer satisfaction.
Managing your entire manufacturing, production, and distribution process can be a huge chore. Significant changes take time and training to implement and mistakes in your processes can take weeks to be discovered, dramatically decreasing your efficiency and increasing both your labor and management costs.
