Whether to differentiate their offerings in a crowded marketplace or to provide a more customer-focused experience, products that are made- or assembled-to-order will produce higher satisfaction and lower return rates. But customization at scale requires ERP software that is flexible and that can uniquely manage a large range of mix-and-match options -- without creating a nightmare of SKUs and a ton of money tied up in inventory. Frontier ERP has been designed specifically for high-volume “To Order” manufacturers and distributors. Some of the industries succeeding with Frontier include manufacturers or assemblers/customizers of Kitchen and Bath Cabinetry, Doors, Electronics, Furniture, Power Units, Promotional Items, Windows, and Window Treatments. Any products customized-, made-, or assembled-to-order can be supported by Frontier ERP. Frontier’s fully integrated product configurator guides the user through collecting all the options required by the customer. Selections are dynamically edited to ensure that only acceptable and buildable combinations can be ordered. Integration with both 2D and 3D images provides even further visual confirmation that the correct product is being ordered, reducing errors and improving customer satisfaction. Designed to provide a complete, integrated solution, Frontier ERP software from Friedman Corporation includes Order Management, Product Configurator, Inventory Control, MRP, Purchasing, Production Scheduling, Production Reporting, Shop Floor Control, Advanced Manufacturing Execution, Accounting, Product Costing, and Shipping. By utilizing the power and security of the iBM platform, plus advanced IBM technologies including Websphere, Friedman Frontier is a robust ERP system with a modern, browser-based user interface that can support companies of any size. It is available on-premise or hosted (cloud). ## Frontier Reviews ### 1.
