Electronics & PCB guides: ERP for electronics, PCB assembly and wiring harness manufacturers
Six guides for PCB assembly and wiring harness plants: what the system has to hold, how to choose one, when spreadsheets stop coping, how SAP compares, how a board and its harness move from order to dispatch, and how to implement it.
- 1. ERP guideElectronics · ERP guideERP software for electronics and PCB manufacturers: what the system has to managePCB assembly and wiring harness plants run on long BOMs, frequent revisions, component lots and test results. This is what an ERP has to manage in that kind of plant, and where an accounting-led system usually stops short. · 10 min readRead
- 2. Choosing an ERPElectronics · Choosing an ERPBest ERP software for electronics and PCB manufacturers: how to chooseThe right ERP for a PCB assembler or harness maker depends on BOM size, how often revisions change, what customers ask to trace and how much happens on the floor. These are the criteria and demo questions that separate a fit from a good presentation. · 6 min readRead
- 3. ERP vs ExcelElectronics · ERP vs ExcelExcel vs ERP for electronics manufacturing: when spreadsheets stop being enoughMany PCB assembly and harness plants run on spreadsheets, and some run well. This is where the sheets start to struggle in an electronics plant, and what changes when the record is made at the station instead. · 6 min readRead
- 4. SAP vs manufacturing ERPElectronics · SAP vs manufacturing ERPSAP vs manufacturing ERP for electronics and PCB manufacturersSAP is a mature enterprise platform. A manufacturing-focused ERP with MES is a narrower tool built around the floor. This comparison helps a PCB assembler or harness maker decide which approach fits its plant. · 6 min readRead
