The nFocus Industrial Equipment Manufacturing ERP Solution provides an integrated, adaptable business solution that can help you optimize production, increase profitability, and grow your organization while winning against global competition.
Industrial Equipment Manufacturing for Microsoft Dynamics AX can help manufacturing companies meet these challenges by integrating and streamlining business, engineering, and production processes for increased efficiency. The solution is an enterprise-wide business management system with emphasis on the particular needs of industrial equipment manufacturers.

Operating "lean" has a special twist for design-intensive industries because it requires embedding the concept and its value into design and engineering processes. Everything that will help make design operations "lean" will also shift design assets from routine operations to real innovation.
Industrial Equipment Manufacturing for Microsoft Dynamics AX provides a number of things that will help your company achieve and manage a leaner design process. Efficient request for quotation (RFQ) processes are just one example. Another is the management of a cluster of subcontractors. The exchange of design specifications, plans, shipment notices, and so on can be performed in a managed framework more efficiently than by merely talking on the phone.
Extending the business is really about giving an industrial equipment manufacturer enough flexibility to grow the business by pursuing new revenue opportunities. The move from a machine builder mode to a plant systems manufacturing mode is just one example. Extended life cycle support, through a better service model, is another.
The last column is really about how we can help you become more competitive through increased innovation—not only with new products, but also with more innovative business processes to gain a competitive edge.
The solution’s specific support for industrial equipment manufacturing addresses design and engineering processes from request for quotations (RFQs) and product engineering throughout the product life cycle, including maintenance and service. This process orientation is flexible enough to adapt to your specific situation, business model, and level of complexity—both now and as your business evolves.
With Industrial Equipment Manufacturing for Microsoft Dynamics AX, manufacturers can streamline operations and manage the product life cycle from start to finish with tailored functionality that supports quoting and bidding, sourcing, design innovation and product engineering, production, installation, and customer service.
Industry-specific functionality integrates tightly with core Microsoft Dynamics AX functionality for an end-to-end business management system.
