Shane Allen here and the weather is wonderful, compared to the Eastern and Southern Parts of the USA. Looking out the window where it is currently 49f with a beautiful blue sky!
Very exciting news coming forth with. It's not been a secret or anything, but I was asked by our Head of Social Media Victoria Smith to introduce you to APPS for IPADS and Android Tablets. We actually rolled this out for BETA testing during the Investment Casting Institute Expo and the NFFS meeting. Just in time for the upcoming Metalcasting Congress, Phase II will be introduced from the booth.
We all know and are aware that the world has and is rapidly accelerating around us with tablets and IPADS taking over the functions of desktops and especially laptops. Well, very soon you will be able to view and record an abundance of information from the shop floor directly into the Synchro ERPdatabases. This is an evolving project and Phase I will allow your metalcasting facility to record WIP, SCRAP, and time bookings. Phase II will expand on that with additional functionality with Key-Performance- Indicators, KPI, and the ability to track UID's as well as receive material in for the purchasing function. One of the neat features of the APP will be the ability to scan in information using the tablet's camera from QRCODES and barcodes.
As per SOP, Standard Operating Procedure, the APP will be rolled out to the Synchro ERP customer base at no additional charge. The APP, like the SFDC-Shop Floor Data Collection module, will utilize 1/3 of a license.
I recently submitted an article to the Foundry Trade Journal and as soon as it is published, I will provide a link to it.
Below are a few "teaser" shots of the APP...
Until next time, see you on down the road...

Head of Synchro ERP North American Operations.
