This course is designed to introduce the principals and practices of ERP (enterprise resource planning) software as it relates to advanced manufacturing. Emphasis will be placed on developing introductory skills to ERP software in the areas of information, production, planning development, manufacturing, customers, and quality control. Students will begin to learn the flow of products through the facility and be able to recognize ways to increase efficiencies. These areas of instruction will be reinforced by hands-on application in several performance lab exercises.
