ERP for aerospace component manufacturing

Aerospace work is small batches, long lead times and a paper trail that outlives the part. A supplier of twenty people can be sitting on an order that runs for two years, with material bought a year before the first operation. Two things break: the record of what was done to each lot, and the ability to say with confidence that nothing in that record changed after the fact. Alibera treats the audit trail as a core feature rather than an add on, and keeps the planning for long horizon orders in the same place as the day to day work orders.

01What it has to do

What these companies need from an ERP

The capabilities below are the ones that come up first in discovery calls with companies in this category.

01

Traceability and audit trail

Every login, change and deletion is logged with the user name, a timestamp and a description of the action. It is a core feature rather than a paid extra, so when a customer asks who changed a quantity or a specification, there is an answer.

02

Bills of material and planning

Multi level bills of material with make to order and make to stock planning, so a confirmed order drives the material requirement and the work orders rather than a separate spreadsheet that somebody has to remember to update.

03

Access control and a staging copy

Permissions by role, department and location, with inheritance, and two factor authentication on by default in the cloud. A separate staging environment lets you test a change before it reaches production.

Tell us which of the 248 you run

A discovery call is a conversation about your process, not a scripted product walkthrough. If Alibera is a poor fit for what you make, we will say so on that call.
