Project Overview

Project Description

Led Project GROWTH, a comprehensive 12-month Epicor ERP Kinetic implementation for the company.

This project modernized their manufacturing & supply chain operations by implementing the following core modules:

  • Inventory Management
  • Bill of Materials (BOMs)
  • Methods of Manufacturing (MOMs)
  • Engineering Change Orders (ECOs)
  • Manufacturing Execution System (MES)

A key component was the development of a Python-based integration with their existing payroll software, specifically designed to handle hourly manufacturing employees.

Additionally, a SharePoint-based internal project management and training system was developed to facilitate communication, document sharing, and provide end-user training resources.

Project Details

Project GROWTH was a strategic initiative to overhaul the company's manufacturing and operational systems through the implementation of Epicor Kinetic ERP. The project was executed over a 12-month timeframe, focusing on delivering a tailored ERP solution to meet the specific needs of the company.

The implementation encompassed several key Epicor ERP modules, including robust Inventory Management, detailed Bill of Materials (BOMs) and Methods of Manufacturing (MOMs) for precise production control, Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) for managing product revisions, and the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) for real-time shop floor control. A critical part of this project was the custom development of a Python-based integration with ADP Payroll, ensuring accurate and efficient payroll processing for hourly manufacturing personnel.

To support the project lifecycle and ensure successful user adoption, a comprehensive internal project management and training system was built using SharePoint. This platform served as a central hub for sharing project documentation, important links, and video-based training materials for end-users, streamlining communication and knowledge transfer.

Key Features

  • Full Epicor ERP Kinetic deployment tailored to highly engineered assembly manufacturing.
