This white paper examines the challenges facing IM&C manufacturers as the rules of the manufacturing industry constantly change. This change is driven by continual business process improvements such as lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, and growing pressures to develop centers of excellence. IM&C companies should consider an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) investment to facilitate this success and as an effective means for risk reduction, accurate planning, and forecasting as well as for customer satisfaction enablement. By facilitating collaboration among development teams, manufacturers and their suppliers, salespeople and their customers, an ERP system helps minimize market uncertainty, eliminate guesswork, and identify and meet customer needs and requirements with precision.
