Saskatoon-based JNE Choose Encompix Manufacturing ERP Software
JNE Welding Ltd. is Saskatchewan's largest full-service
fabricator headquartered in Saskatoon. Their clients are among
the world's largest producers of uranium, potash,
petrochemicals, wood, pulp/paper, food processing, as well as
original equipment manufacturers.
According to Chuck Stewart, Executive Vice-President with
Encompix, "JNE recognized the limitations of their existing
systems, a collection of disconnected applications, in running
their business. Realizing the potential benefits, JNE started
looking for a fully integrated ERP system. After an initial
search and evaluation, JNE realized that a generic ERP system
would not meet their ETO requirements. At this point JNE
discovered Encompix."
JNE, like many Encompix project-based customers, were looking
for capabilities not found in traditional ERP systems including,
project management, actual costing, percent complete,
estimate-to-completion, revenue recognition, milestone billing,
and exception reporting. Another key requirement was the ability
to extract management information and the integration with
Microsoft applications such as Word and Excel. Encompix was able
to demonstration their ability to meet these requirements as
well as others specific to the metal fabrication industry. As
JNE has a business relationship with another Canadian Encompix
customer, their endorsement help confirm JNE's decision.
Encompix (www.encompix.com) has filled the manufacturing
software requirements of Engineer-to-Order companies since 1992.
The company name reflects the commitment to developing business
application solutions that encompass the complex areas of
project-based and job-based manufacturing. Encompix provides ETO
manufacturers with a competitive advantage by improving bottom
line results.
