DELMIAWorks (formerly IQMS) is a manufacturing ERP built the opposite way to most: it starts on the shop floor. A full Manufacturing Execution System is wrapped in a complete ERP, running on a single shared database, so production, quality, inventory and finance are always working from the same real-time picture, with no bolted-on third-party modules to keep in sync.
Most ERP systems are built from the accounts ledger outward, then have shop floor control added later as a plug-in. DELMIAWorks was built the other way round: starting with real-time control of the manufacturing process, then wrapping the rest of the business around it. The result is a system where every department is working from the same live data, not a nightly export.
Stronger alignment between design needs, behaviour and performance, catching issues earlier.
Streamlined inspections and scheduled calibrations through built-in quality modules, cutting costs.
Simplified compliance and laid the groundwork for robotics on the floor.
Because ERP and MES share one database, information only needs to be entered once. A change on the shop floor is visible in planning, quality and finance the same moment it happens.
DELMIAWorks covers the full run of a manufacturing business, sales through to shipping and accounts, with a single-database architecture that lets you switch on more capability as you grow.
Real-time shop floor data collection, process monitoring, preventative maintenance and production reporting.
Advanced planning and scheduling, capacity, labour and material requirements planning in one connected view.
Lot tracking, traceability, Kanban and vendor-managed inventory support, built around lean manufacturing principles.
Document control, statistical process control (SPC), non-conformance and audit tracking.
Contact and opportunity management alongside quoting and order entry, tracked against the same customer record.
Full financial control integrated directly with manufacturing activity, so job costs and margins update as production happens.
For companies already using SOLIDWORKS, DMO Solutions can connect that CAD environment directly to DELMIAWorks, so the bill of materials your engineers build never has to be manually re-entered on the shop floor.
DELMIAWorks carries specialised modules for process types that show up across a wide range of New Zealand manufacturing businesses.
