MOM provides manufacturers with the ability to extend their ERP system by offering specific applications that will streamline their operations at an affordable price.

MOM Suite of Manufacturing Applications:

  • Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
  • Time & Attendance
  • Labor Reporting
  • Data Collection
  • Dashboards
  • Scheduling
  • Shipping & Receiving
  • Supplier Barcoding

So, I ask again… how’s your MOM? Contact Crossroads RMC to learn more.

Here are some issues that you might run into if you stay on an old porting set too long:

  • Incompatibility because of operating system patches
  • Printing issues because of out-of-date libraries
  • Potential performance issues if binaries are not updated
  • Updating third-party products may not be possible because of dependencies
  • Limited support from Infor
  • Issues with updating database software/patches because of dependencies (if the database is also running on the same server as the application)

Need help getting on a newer porting set? Let us know! We’d be happy to help.
