Visual Planner and HyperLynq Set to Take ‘Engage 2009’ By Storm

Lynq Ltd, the UK-based software house which is an Exact Reseller and Partner, will be making the trip to Nashville to participate in Engage, the Exact Users Conference (http://www.exactamerica.com/engage/).  The 2009 conference, which is being held between 22nd and 25th March, gives Exact customers the opportunity to share knowledge and ideas with other users.

Lynq will be exhibiting in the Vendor Showcase at Booths 24 and 25 and will be demonstrating a range of software solutions designed to reduce costs and streamline operations.  In particular, the recently launched Visual Planner and HyperLynq are expected to take Engage by storm.


These applications, developed by Lynq and available from both Lynq and Exact, have been designed to work straight ‘out of the box’, providing a fast ROI (Return on Investment).

Lynq will be demonstrating the power of these applications to delegates attending the Engage conference at their booth in the User Showcase.  Interested parties will be able to see live demonstrations there and then, or book online demonstrations for after the event.

Visual Planner

Visual Planner is the Only Production Planning and Scheduling Tool to fully integrate with Exact Macola Systems.  With Visual Planner, production teams can be trained and up and running in a matter of days, saving time and costly implementation fees.  It has been developed to satisfy all the criteria of a busy manufacturing operation.  Its wealth of benefits include substantial time savings, a reduction in labour costs, and lower stock levels: essential for Lean Operations.

HyperLynq

HyperLynq is a powerful and dynamic toolset which unlocks the information stored in an Exact Macola system.  HyperLynq consists of a System Manager and an extensive range of Lookups and Plugins.

HyperLynq allows the user to manipulate and look at data quickly, build standard and one-off reports, and interrogate Macola data in novel and sophisticated ways.

John Grima, Lynq’s Business Development Manager says, “We launched Visual Planner’s pre-release version at Engage last year and had a constant queue of people at the booth.  This year, with the launch of the full versions of the software, we are already being inundated with enquiries.  Visual Planner and HyperLynq are solutions which help businesses reduce their costs quickly and easily.  These applications will help many manufacturing and distributing organizations survive this recession.”

Anyone interested in finding out more information about Visual Planner can visit Lynq at Booth 24 & 25 at Engage 2009 between March 22nd and 25th.  Alternatively, contact Lynq on +44 (0) 1329 800000.

New Exact Planner Automates Production Planning for Exact Macola ERP Systems

Exact, a leading provider of business software solutions, is pleased to announce Exact Planner, a new production planning solution that helps users improve production performance and save real cash previously wasted with poor production planning. Exact Planner is ideal for companies currently using homegrown spreadsheets or project-based production systems that are not integrated with their Exact Macola solution.

Meaningful and systematic production scheduling takes into account many variables, including demand stream, inventories, available resource capacities, material planning, existing workload, and cash flow. Its role is vital in shops with high-mix, low-volume production, but the complexities of scheduling often present challenges that can lead to inefficiencies and extra costs. Exact Planner helps reduce hidden costs of non-integrated scheduling by helping companies reduce waste in the manufacturing process.

“Many of our customers are challenged with managing their production schedule outside of their core business system,” said Harry Merkin, VP of Marketing for Exact Americas. “By combining good scheduling capabilities with ERP, our customers can significantly improve the results of their manufacturing, customer service, inventory management, and purchasing processes with impact to the bottom line.”

With Exact Planner backing up sound planning principles, companies can gain a better handle on their overall production capacity as well as capacity of individual work centers. This allows them to more accurately predict when finished goods will be available and the implications of real-time scheduling adjustments are better understood.

“In simultaneous production of diverse jobs, using shared resources of finite capacity, the real-time decisions for scheduling mixed workloads has a domino effect on production that cannot be easily predicted,” said Mike McPherson, Product Marketing Manager for Exact Planner. “With our integrated planning solution, the diverse workload is efficiently scheduled, allowing our customers to improve shop production performance without requiring enhancements to their capacity.”

By helping Exact customers plan and schedule more efficiently, Exact Planner can be deployed now to help them do more with their current resources, providing a true competitive advantage as the economy transitions into a recovery phase and production demands begin to increase.

Exact Planner at Engage 2010

Exact will feature Exact Planner as well as other products and services at Engage 2010, the company’s annual user conference. Held in Orlando, FL, April 11-14, Engage offers a truly unique opportunity for the entire Exact community to join forces for three days of networking, education, and insight.
