ProShop ERP’s digital ecosystem is a combination ERP/MES/QMS solution designed to integrate seamlessly with each other and other manufacturing software. This paperless digital operating platform (DOP) is designed to link every job shop department, from those estimating projects to shipping. Engineered for small- to medium-sized manufacturing companies, ProShop can replace up to five software programs, which is said to simplify project management from start to finish.

Customized ERP modules are designed to help get jobs off to a cohesive start. The integrated MES system can pick things up by tracking time, tooling, fixtures, work cells, personnel, part programming information and more in real-time. The QMS function features numerous modules that grab data from the ERP/MES systems and create reports reflecting preventative and corrective actions, as well as generate audits for quality reporting. ProShop’s 25+ dashboards can provide shops with a view of the entire operation, identifying waste and ineffective procedures in one smart digital ecosystem. According to the company, customers report setup reductions of up to 50% and total labor savings of 25% or more. This can result in leaner production with the same number of employees.

“The ProShop ERP/MES/QMS digital ecosystem helps shops grow their operation while remaining profitable,” says Van Metre. “It’s unnecessary to add more machines and more workers when beginning the expansion process when you have one smart paperless system that captures all of the details of your manufacturing processes, creating a big picture snapshot of the operation illustrating the good and the bad, and creating an environment for improvement and growth without impulsive spending.”
