The  Annual Meeting is COMMON’s largest educational event of the year, with four full days of in-depth IBM i, AIX, and Linux-related education that includes all-day pre-conference workshops, open labs, and a wide variety of regular-length sessions. It is the annual meeting of the COMMON membership and the largest gathering of the Power Systems user community. Come see us in Booth 203.

Crossroads RMC is also proud to announce our membership in COMMON for 2016. We look forward to partnering with COMMON and providing valuable content to their user community and sharing in dialogue with users across the country.

Honeywell has renewed Crossroads RMC’s Silver Level status in their Performance Partner Program for 2016. This recognition provides Crossroads RMC with the authorization to resell Honeywell/Intermec mobile computing products at a substantial discount, thereby allowing Crossroads’ customers to take advantage of that discount as well. 

Crossroads works closely with the Honeywell /Intermec engineering group to provide the best hardware offerings at a good price point for manufacturers across North America.

Crossroads RMC is proud to be featured in the IT Jungle article “ERP Upgrades: Love ‘Em or Leave ‘Em”. Anthony Etzel of Crossroads RMC discusses the benefits of an add-on solution like Crossroads MES which provides the feature rich functionality that manufacturers need, typically not found in an ERP system.

Crossroads RMC has once again partnered with Xenitel Managed Service Solutions and CST Industries to create a warranty service claim system for CST’s dealers. The project will provide a way for dealers to create a “warranty request claim” from within the dealer portal, defining the customer and product, and parts that failed, and selecting what parts they are claiming for replacement to install the replacement part. This service will be offered in addition to the parts online ordering system previously developed for CST. 

CST is a global leader in the manufacture and construction of factory coated metal storage tanks, aluminum domes and specialty covers.

Crossroads RMC is pleased to announce the availability of Crossroads MES, V11 for Windows 10. Any customers wishing to upgrade from a previous version to V11 can do so by contacting  support@crossroadsrmc.com. As previously announced, Crossroads MES  is also compatible with tablet PCs running Windows 8.1.

The project is scheduled to go live in early November 2015.

Morrison Brothers, a major producer of petroleum marketing equipment in the United States and abroad, has chosen Crossroads MES for its shop floor control system.

Manufacturers across the country rely heavily on their MRP or ERP systems to automate the handling of resources. That's what the "R" stands for, after all. But it turns out that MRP and ERP systems leave a whole lot to be desired when it actually comes to managing resources--including raw materials and labor--on the shop floor. That's where companies like Crossroads RMC and its manufacturing execution system, Crossroads MES comes into play.
