Aware Enterprise
System
The Aware Enterprise System from Aware Business Systems is a
remarkable new software package designed for growing Australian
manufacturers and distributors. Designed and developed in Australia
it integrates all the common business functions in a Microsoft
Windows and SQL Server environment.
For Manufacturers the Aware Enterprise System gives you the
control you need over all the potential problem areas, such as
quoting and estimating, product specification, graphical production
scheduling, materials planning, along with highly effective
purchasing and costing.
For distributors it offers internet ordering, stock allocation,
flexible picking and despatch scheduling. Powerful demand
forecasting, a comprehensive pricing matrix and extensive sales
performance analysis are all designed to meet the needs of a
sophisticated marketing organisation.
Aware is practical and intuitive. It is simple to set up and
simple to use because it is designed by people with "hands-on"
experience in manufacturing and distribution.
The Aware system has been engineered to provide a high quality, low
cost business system for the progressive organisation. Comprehensive
functionality meets the needs of many different types of business.
As a manufacturer you require the software to specifically cater
for one of the following environments: projects, design to order,
make to order, final assembly and make to stock. You may even want a
combination of types. If you are a chemical or pharmaceutical
manufacturer then you will require batch process manufacturing with
Lot tracking and traceability with full GMP standards of
documentation and control.
As a distributor you may require multi-site inventory management
with replenishment planning between the sites. As an importer you
will need effective seasonal forecasting to plan your orders for long
lead-times, with shipment tracking and costing of imports.
Business Structures
The Aware Enterprise System has been designed to accommodate a
wide range of industries and business structures. From wholesale
distribution to major project manufacturing, from chemical
manufacturing to medical electronics, from a 10 person company to an
organisation with 100's of staff, Aware provides a simple yet highly
flexible solution.
The business structures provided in the system include multiple
companies, multiple divisions, multiple sites and multiple geographic
regions.
Divisions may be separate legal entities or sections of one entity
or a combination, with consolidation of some separately from
others.
It is designed for small to medium companies with a reasonably
complex structure.
