Plex Online Highlights

Plex Online offers over 350 functional modules with functions in enterprise resource management (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM), manufacturing execution systems (MES), and supply chain management (SCM).

Plex’s SaaS solution is delivered through secure data centers built from the ground up for continuous, secure, and reliable Web-based service delivery.

Plex Online provides a unique and complete set of integrated modules developed exclusively for tool tracking. Some of its features include a Master Tool List, Bill of Materials, Tool Life Analysis, and serialized tracking.

One of the strengths of Plex Online that differentiates it from its competitors is Bar Code Labeling. Plex Online can customize any label format you require, anything from an obscure customer requirement to an internal label.

Keeping tabs on your labor department is made easy with the Labor Tracking Module. The module tracks both direct labor and indirect labor activity, such as employee, activity, machine, part, operation, project, date, time and hours.

Modules specifically designed for engineering include controls for Parts, Engineering Changes, Process Routings, Bills of Material, and other essentials of an integrated system.
