Who Is Acumatica ERP for Manufacturing Best Suited For?

Acumatica ERP for Manufacturing is designed for manufacturers that need better visibility, flexibility, and control across production, inventory, purchasing, and financials—without the rigidity of traditional manufacturing systems.

Discrete Manufacturers

Acumatica supports discrete manufacturers managing complex bills of materials, routings, and multi-stage production. Connected data helps track materials, production activity, and costs with clear visibility across teams.

Process Manufacturers

Process manufacturers can manage formulas, batch production, and inventory tracking in one system. Real-time visibility helps monitor material usage, reduce waste, and maintain consistency across runs.

Engineer-to-Order (ETO)

ETO manufacturers benefit from flexibility for custom products and changing requirements. Manage design changes, purchasing, production planning, and cost tracking without rigid system constraints.

Make-to-Order (MTO)

Acumatica aligns sales orders, production schedules, and material planning. Build to customer demand while keeping visibility into timelines, inventory needs, and production costs.

Make-to-Stock (MTS)

MTS manufacturers can balance inventory levels with demand signals. Real-time insight into inventory, production, and sales activity helps reduce excess stock while avoiding shortages.

Multi-Location Manufacturers

Manage multiple plants, warehouses, or entities with centralized visibility and local control. Run location-level operations while maintaining consistent reporting across the organization.

Outgrowing Old Software

Acumatica is a strong next step when entry-level systems or rigid legacy ERPs can’t keep up. Scale users and complexity with modern automation, real-time visibility, and flexible workflows.

Growing Manufacturers

If you’re adding product lines, locations, or production volume, Acumatica helps keep systems connected as you scale. Maintain operational control while improving visibility across purchasing, inventory, and reporting.

Manufacturers Needing Flexibility
