ERP for mechanical and plant engineering
Your system for successful processes
What our ERP system offers the mechanical and plant engineering industry
A clear overview is crucial in mechanical and plant engineering. If you don’t have projects, resources and processes under control, you risk downtime. Everything must be perfectly coordinated. The APplus ERP system supports you with a powerful CRM, central project management and the seamless integration of PLM and CAD data. This allows you to manage your processes in a targeted manner and maintain control at all times.
The ERP brings all departments together so that not only the internal processes work, but also the customer service is convincing. Development, production and service work with the same, always up-to-date data. Your team can answer inquiries directly and coordinate maintenance efficiently. This strengthens customer loyalty and makes your company even more competitive.

Direct access to all data
If development and production do not interact perfectly, things can quickly go wrong in mechanical and plant engineering. This does not happen with PLM/CAD integration from APplus. Your design data is always up to date and changes are made directly in production. No data chaos, no misunderstandings. Just do it – without reworking and duplicating work.
With APplus, your ERP speaks the same language as your teams. This speeds things up and keeps your mind free for what really matters.
Growing parts lists
Flexible and adaptable
For many orders in mechanical engineering, it is not yet clear at the beginning exactly what the end product will look like in detail. Nevertheless, production must already start, be it for the first manufacturing steps or the early procurement of long runs. But how do you organize this when the parts list has not yet been finalized?
With APplus, your parts list simply grows with you. You define the initial components and successively add further details as soon as they are known. This means that customer requirements can be flexibly taken into account without processes coming to a standstill. Even if not all product data is available from the outset, your production remains efficient and your planning reliable. Changes can be transferred to the ERP at any time so that you can react quickly – without chaos in production.

Project management
Everything in view, everything under control
In mechanical engineering, many processes run in parallel – from the initial quotation phase to final commissioning. It is not always easy to maintain an overview. With APplus, you have all the relevant information in one central location and can access it at any time. Whether it’s planning details, ongoing work steps or the current project status, everything is directly available.
This allows processes to be coordinated efficiently and adjustments to be made quickly. Changes or new requirements? No problem, with our ERP system you can keep your project under control.
Calculation
Economic efficiency guaranteed
Machine builders need to keep an eye on their costs. With APplus , you can record costs precisely right from the start. The preliminary costing helps with planning, the running costing shows current values and the final costing provides information on optimization potential. The ERP solution allows you to keep an eye on your profitability and make well-founded decisions.
For contract manufacturers, this means that every order is recorded precisely with the actual costs, regardless of whether it involves stock material, in-house production or external services. Order-related procurements, including additional costs, can also be recorded in detail. Instead, series manufacturers use APplus standard cost accounting to keep their costing stable in the long term. Regardless of which production model you use, your costs remain transparent and controllable.
Service management
All-round support for your systems
Machines and systems have to run – and the service has to be right. APplus enables the smooth management of your systems, service contracts and much more. It offers you a powerful service management tool that covers all aspects of your service processes. The result? Efficiently managed systems, precisely tracked service contracts and perfectly coordinated maintenance work.
All important information is immediately available in the ERP system so that your service team can respond quickly and effectively to customer inquiries. In this way, you increase your service quality and build long-term customer relationships.
