Plex Boosts Software Features For Electronics Manufacturers

AUBURN HILLS --Plex Systems Inc., provider of Plex Online, Cloud ERP for manufacturers, today announced a series of functionality enhancements designed to improve production efficiencies in the electronics manufacturing industry.

Plex Online now supports manufacturers with approved vendor lists for component manufacturers, allowing them to build sophisticated products that may contain several hundred parts from separate suppliers.

Workcenter source positioning -- especially important for the electronics industry --  simplifies the pick and place process in the production line. Component reels are strategically placed in the proper position for machine optimization and help workers easily determine order and position of the various components, which results in minimizing customer rejection rates and associated scrap costs.

"These enhancements to Plex Online will help ensure electronics manufacturers operate more efficiently, reduce customer rejection of parts and minimize costly waste," said Plex Systems vice president Patrick Fetterman. "This is an instructive example of listening to the customer and providing product improvements that deliver real benefits to the community of Plex Online users."

Plex Systems Inc. is the developer of Plex Online, a software-as-a-service ERP system for the manufacturing enterprise. Plex Online offers industry-leading features for virtually every department within a manufacturer, including manufacturing execution systems and quality management systems for the shop floor, supply chain management for procurement, and enterprise resource planning for finance and management. Plex Online's comprehensive functional coverage delivers a "shop floor to top floor" view of a manufacturer's operations, enabling management to run its business at maximum efficiency.
