Lean Process Manufacturer Powered by Escape Velocity Systems

PRLog (Press Release) - May 09, 2007 -
According to EVS President Evan Garber, “We realize that good ERP software is the hub of information in any process manufacturing enterprise. Timely, reliable, and centralized data are non-negotiable elements for businesses competing in the 21st century.  Few technology solutions are available in the process manufacturing arena; even fewer focus on lean.  Enterprise software should power businesses towards a Lean enterprise and that powerful technology drives long term ROI with customizable and flexible software.”  


Escape Velocity Systems (EVS) (www.evs-sw.com) recently announced that process (formula based) manufacturing operations are increasingly focused on lean manufacturing principles including continued process improvement.  




Process Manufacturing describes a manufacturing process whereby materials are blended, cooked, or mixed as opposed to assembled from discrete units. Some needs common to process manufacturing industries are:

•   Formulas (or recipes) are ratios, not static bills of material
•   Split bill of material: several products can share one formula, yet have different packaging
•   Flexibility with units of measure
•   Stringent quality control, with recall ability
•   Lot grading / attribute tracking and calculation

Escape Velocity Systems (EVS) was formed in 2001 to combine specific industry knowledge related to process manufacturing, distribution, and ERP implementations with cutting edge software development.  The company focus is to create tools that enable mid-market enterprises to achieve their goals, focusing on lean processes and ROI.  

The term escape velocity refers to the speed that is necessary for an object to overcome gravity and soar into space. EVS provides direct applications for businesses looking for a catalyst, not just a software package.  Process manufacturers require the best software solution coupled with industry experience that will accelerate the velocity with which they race towards their goals. The gravity of status-quo opposes aggressive, cutting edge organizations as they strive towards high quality and short lead time delivery while reducing inventories and operating costs.
