Advanced Requisition Management (ARM)
Epicor ERP's Advanced Requisition Management (ARM) offers manufacturers and service businesses an organized and unified solution to control spending more effectively. By supporting the supply chain and manufacturing value stream seamlessly, ARM plays a crucial role in reducing waste, cutting costs, and ensuring purchased items are readily available when needed. The smart routing of requisitions in ARM drastically shortens approval times, giving businesses a competitive edge in the market.
Benefits of ARM
One of the key benefits of Epicor ERP's Advanced Requisition Management is the significant savings it offers. The integration with Kinetic ERP results in lower deployment costs, while the automation and efficiency improvements in procurement operations lead to reduced running costs and improved margins for businesses. Additionally, ARM enables faster processing through workflow-based automation, allowing organizations to tailor approval setups to their specific needs and manage multiple levels, tolerance limits, dimensions, out-of-office approvers, and more.
Optimized Inventory Levels
Another advantage of using ARM is the optimization of inventory levels. By ordering items just in time for manufacturing operations, businesses can achieve a smarter inventory management strategy. The close integration with Kinetic ERP ensures that procurers can enhance efficiency, leading to healthier and more optimized stock levels in the warehouse. This strategic approach helps businesses streamline their procurement processes and avoid overstock or stockouts, thereby improving overall operational efficiency.
Capabilities of ARM
Epicor ERP's Advanced Requisition Management provides a range of capabilities to digitize businesses and streamline procurement operations. From tight integration with Kinetic ERP to cloud-ready, web-based solutions, ARM offers an easy-to-use catalog, increased communication channels, integration with supplier websites, and internal transfer request functionalities. By leveraging these capabilities, businesses can enhance transparency, efficiency, and communication in their procurement processes, ultimately leading to cost savings and improved supply chain management.
