Access Supply Chain

Fully featured ERP

Access Supply Chain is designed to meet the complex needs of medium and large companies within the manufacturing and distribution sectors. Providing fully functional ERP functionality, this powerful vertical solution is an integral part of the Access product range and follows a regular release programme.

With its broad-ranging, highly functional portfolio, Access Supply Chain has a proven track record in a wide variety of industry sectors including aerospace, automotive, electronics, engineering, food & drink, pharmaceuticals and white goods.

Our highly experienced consultants have carried out thousands implementations all over the UK and in Ireland, to a client base that includes names such as Elsan, Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd, Mackle Pet Foods and The Cromer Crab Company.

Over the years, our Access Supply Chain solution has received many accolades. These include shared awards with our customers at prestigious industry events including The Manufacturer LIVE, the MITCON IT awards and at the Best of British Manufacturing Awards.

Functionality

The modules within Access Supply Chain are completely interchangeable and come with powerful financials built-in. To complete your solution, a host of optional modules are also available including payroll and business intelligence.

For distribution companies, we provide features such as telesales, advanced stock allocations, multi-warehouse control, delivery load & route planning and hand-held barcoding. For manufacturing companies, we offer production planning, SFDC and the ability to deal with complex builds and recipes.

Usability

Like the rest of the Access product range, Access Supply Chain utilises the Windows look and feel, making the system easy to use and requiring minimal training. Integration with Microsoft Office enables you to boost productivity across your operation, enabling users to carry out standard tasks more quickly and delivering key decision-making information to where it's needed. For example, this enables you to attach documents to records, extract data into OLAP cubes for offline analysis and monitor KPIs from within your Outlook window.

Reporting

Within the manufacturing and distribution modules, all reporting is provided by Crystal templates.

On the financials side, you have a choice of Crystal or pre-configured reports. Using Crystal, you can quickly and easily customise your report to your exact requirements: selected fields can be added, moved or deleted, or graphics added. Anyone with knowledge of Crystal can make the changes and you do not lose your settings each time the software is upgraded.

Extensibility

Access Supply Chain is optimised for Microsoft's SQL Server database. With this one common platform, extending your system can take place easily and cost-effectively. This applies whether you are adding or re-configuring modules, or adding one or many hundreds of concurrent users.

Technology

Access Supply Chain is a fully connectable solution. Our SDK includes an API (Application Programming Interface) for development and integration of SQL applications, and a COM toolkit for linking with all COM compliant applications. In addition, we provide a Transaction Broker, enabling endless capacity for integration with companion products and other 'Best of Breed' solutions. Using these facilities, data generated on external systems can be updated securely, seamlessly and in real-time, straight into the relevant modules and on into your daily workflow.

This flexibility makes Access Supply Chain ideal for use in all parts of the distribution and manufacturing industry, even those traditionally dominated by specialist applications.
