Epicor Kinetic Delivers a System Software Solution
A strong, purpose-built system software platform is a critical component for a successful contract aerospace manufacturer. The parts produced at Intrex Aerospace are precision engineered to tolerances measured in thousandths of an inch. Managing that level of precision across thousands of different part numbers, machined in multiple materials (simple to high alloys), most with complex geometries, requires robust system software that integrates engineering, procurement, production, and quality data, in real time. We have such a system, Epicor Kinetic.
What is Epicor Kinetic?
Epicor Kinetic is an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software. It consolidates business functions – such as supply chain management, inventory, operations, finances and customer relations (CRM) – into a cohesive system. It supports a seamless data flow across all business areas, providing a consolidated operations view, facilitating data-driven decisions. It is adaptable and scalable.
Key Features and Functionalities of Epicor Software
Epicor’s ERP system provides a single stream of information across finance, manufacturing, supply chain, and sales. This unified platform boosts operational efficiency and reduces data discrepancies, setting the stage for better strategic decisions. We utilize Epicor Kinetic in the following areas of our business:
- Quoting & Customer Relationship Management – Streamlined workflows for estimating, customer engagement, and opportunity tracking.
- Production Management – Real‑time visibility into job status, routing, capacity, and material flow.
- Engineering – Clear management of BOMs, revisions, and manufacturing documentation.
- Supply Chain – Integrated purchasing, vendor management, and material planning to support on‑time delivery.
- Planning & Scheduling – Tools that evaluate capacity, constraints, and priorities to optimize throughput.
- Financial Management – Accurate costing, financial reporting, and performance visibility.
- Shop Floor Execution – Replaced our legacy AMS system with Epicor‑driven documentation including toolsheets, work instructions, revision logs, code files, and more.
- Data Analysis – Real‑time reporting and analytics for continuous improvement.
It is also integrated into our Unipoint quality system and CMM’S, which we will detail in a subsequent article, specific to our quality system.
