Enterprise Manufacturing Software Solution

Enterprise inSight is enterprise-scale manufacturing software for manufacturers who want more business agility. Designed for the furniture manufacturing industry, Enterprise inSight allows companies to quickly and profitably respond to changing market conditions. Enterprise inSight enables you to extend your existing manufacturing flexibility into true mass customization.

A unified system from start to finish20-20 Technologies is the only solutions provider in theindustry that helps manufacturers get the most out ofmodern technology, from point-of-sale through manufacturing. Reduce time to market for a new product line, from 12 months down to three months or less. Beat out the competition by responding more quickly to custom requestsand by broadening your product offerings. Respond to changing market conditions without relying solely on price reductions as a competitivestrategy.

Reduce costs with real-time status updates and event-driven workflowthat increase shop floor efficiency, enabling lean manufacturing.

benefiTsarchiTecTed for an agile business

Enterprise inSight was designed specifically for the agile business environment. The highly flexible architecture, event-driven work-flow, and unique inResponse architecture let you configure the software to execute your company’s business processes andably handle everyday disruptions to plans.

Enterprise inSight enables you to choose the best approach for defining product and process data, depending on your unique requirements. It allows you to combine classical and parametric methods for Bill of Materials (BOM) processing with knowledge-based engineering tools. Users focus on developing reusable rules that govern product characteristics, geometry,machining, material, and process definitions, rather than manually entering repetitive data.

Thus, Enterprise inSight’s rules-based, holistic approach to defining product and process data reduces time to market for yournew product offerings. It also provides you with corresponding Point-of-Sale (POS) product data.

For example, to add a new veneer, users simply open the Materials library, add the veneer, and apply the new veneer to theexisting products. When a BOM is generated for the new product, it contains all details needed for the manufacturing facility.Details can then be automatically exported for use with most types of CNC machines, making it unnecessary to manuallyre-enter engineering data into the CNC program.

Because of its innovative architecture, Enterprise inSight can be installed to augment your current systems, to replace specificfunctions, or to replace your entire system.

Whereas a product enhancement such as a new material, drawer slide, door style, edge, or pull can take months on a legacyERP system, the entire process can be completed within a single day using Enterprise inSight.

Enterprise inSight’s object-oriented architecture eliminates the need to manually re-create Bills of Materials each time you want to enhance a product or product line.

The Configurator eliminates the chaos of disconnected systems by centralizing product data that integrateseasily with other systems.

The Enterprise inSight Configurator provides an intuitive interface for creating and managing all of your product data.Advanced product models contain all of the data that your manufacturing operations require, allowing you to “configure”products to order.

EASILy hANdLE cUStOMS ANd AUtOMAtE ENGINEERINGThe Configurator automatically generates both 2D and 3D drawings that graphically illustrate the product. It alsocreates BOMs, Routing Steps, CNC machine code, drawings, standard costing, and purchasing demand, all within asingle software application, all within minutes.

With Enterprise inSight, you no longer need to rely on blood, sweat, and Excel to manage your custom products. Theunique solution allows you to incorporate custom products into your standard processes, giving you the best of bothworlds: complete engineering flexibility and automated data creation.

This promotes efficient validation and smarter decision-making across the company.

20-20 Technologies’ end-to-end strategy allows you to transfer catalog data directly to point-of-sale (POS) applications, such as 20-20 Design and CAP Studio. You can also receive orders directly from POS systems into Enterprise inSight.This dramatically reduces the resources required to maintain your data—data that is typically entered twice, once for the POS and once for the ERP—and eliminates operational errors resulting from manual data entry.

Visually intuitive order entry and real-time validation ensures that every order is entered correctly the first time.

It also ensures the right data gets to the right place at the right time. Thus, each individual works on the highest priority item, resulting in a coordinated effort.

Shop Floor Assistant automatically generates work schedules for all work centers. Completed operations can be updated in real-time via keyboard, barcode, or RFID input, providing up-to-the-minute status information at all levels of the business.
