Assembly Shops

Assembly shops have unique needs and challenges. Some assembly shops create large one-of-a-kind structures while others are primarily involved in production runs and just-in-time delivery schedules. All assembly shops face the same challenges including competitive bidding and managing tight profit margins.

E2 provides the tools to manage assembly shop challenges with a great estimating system that includes an integrated BOM and router that provides fast and accurate estimates.  With easy navigation, it takes only one click to access part histories, create orders, schedule, create purchase orders, shipping docs, track lots/certs, and automate shipping and invoicing, all with no double entry.  Another hot button for assembly shops is realistic scheduling.  They need to be able to run all their jobs through the shop efficiently.

E2 is flexible enough that assembly shops are able to get their quotes out fast, schedule their jobs efficiently and track their costs effectively.  At the end of the day they will see exactly which jobs and customers are the most profitable.  E2 is also a great fit for assembly shops when it comes to dealing with customer changing due dates and/or quantities.  Since everything is integrated with E2, any change in the work order automatically updates material requirements and scheduling workload.
