Cincom Systems announced today the launch of its new enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, Cincom Total?, natively developed within the Microsoft Dynamics AX platform.

Cincom Total is the only knowledge-driven ERP solution that enables manufacturers to manage and optimize their total business from complex selling through manufacturing to aftermarket services. Cincom Total infuses a company's expert and tribal knowledge as business rules inside any enterprise information or process; thus allowing manufacturers to master complexity, improve decision-making and increase business process velocity.

Designed to Handle Production Processes Specific to Manufacturing Industry

Cincom Total is built to help companies master the challenges, complexities and chaos of modern manufacturing. Cincom Total delivers a single view into all of manufacturing's critical processes including opportunity-to-order, order-to-cash and plan-to-achieve.

"This result is smarter decision-making because you have the immediate knowledge you need to streamline your processes, reduce your costs and improve your margins," said Dave Schwarber, managing director of Cincom Manufacturing Business Solutions.

"Cincom Total builds on the company's extensive engineer-to-order (ETO) expertise and combines its expertise in ERP, which makes this solution ideal for the rapidly changing needs of manufacturers," said Dylan Persaud of Eval-Source, a software evaluation and strategic consulting firm. "Cincom Total with the Microsoft Dynamics AX partnership brings ETO to the midmarket and enterprise very effectively."

Improved Production Efficiency

According to the NAM/IndustryWeek 1Q 2013 Survey of Manufacturers, more than 55 percent of U.S. manufacturers see increased efficiencies in the production process as a primary driver for future growth.

"Cincom Total lets you operate in your ideal style using what you need to be most efficient. For instance, you can have multi-mode processes next to batch and next to kanban individual projects running in the same facility, on the same system," continued Schwarber.

Manufacturers can now benefit from the breadth and depth of Cincom Total capabilities including:

Knowledge Configuration Complex Selling Estimating Product Configuration Advanced Contracts Product Lifecycle Management Project Supply Chain Service Management Advanced Projects Performance Management

Today's announcement was made at Microsoft Convergence 2013. Cincom, a Gold Sponsor of Microsoft Convergence, will showcase Cincom Total in booth 717. Cincom will also make a generous contribution to the Fuel the Future program that provides meals to New Orleans children.
