Welcome to Industrial Equipment Manufacturing Apps

The Industrial Equipment Manufacturing Apps are the extension based successor for Industrial Equipment Manufacturing (IEM). The apps version of the IEM solution provides the same functionality as before and is compliant with Microsoft's Universal Code Initiative which makes the solution future proof.

Note: For a short period of time the solution was named Project Management Suite. With the re-naming of the Projects module to Projects in Business Central the familiar Industrial Equipment Manufacturing name returned.

IEM extends Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for the project based style of manufacturing, the engineer/make/assemble to order industry. IEM builds on a 20+ years experience in this type of industry closely following partner and customer requirements.

Introduction IEM - Project Control Suite
Introduction IEM - Resource Management

Overview

IEM consists of the following modules:

  • Project Control Suite, extends the Business Central Projects module to a complete project management solution. A project is temporary and undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. To be successful the project needs a plan, or budget, a timeline and accurate registration during execution. Only with these elements in place visibility on the project's progress can be properly forecasted.
  • Resource Management, extends the Business Central Resource Planning module to a task based planning and time registration module. To deploy people successfully to a project, clear assignment to tasks is required to enable insight in the availability of resources and correct registration of time spend.
  • Manufacturing & Service Integration, integrates Project Control Suite - and Resource Management into the Business Central's Manufacturing module. Makes it possible to transfer Work in Progress from production to Project to have full visibility on all costs related to the project. Assigning resources as operators to production operations creates the basis for a Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
  • Service Integration, integrates Project Control Suite to the Service module to hand-over the Project Deliverable to the installed base. This as built or as installed structure is the basis for efficient Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul services and can be extended to full "Servitization".
