Description
МАХ is a package of integrated business systems which provides extensive features to help run all departments in a modern Manufacturing or Distribution business.
Business management is key to successful operation of the entire company. To ensure their stability in business and prosperity in future, the businesses should make provision for an effective management system so as to achieve the following business objectives:
- Improve delivery and customer service
- Enhance sales order processing
- Reduce stock and work-in-progress
- Reduce order delivery time
- Reduce manufacturing lead time
- Increase productivity
- Improve critical equipment and human resources usage
- Respond quickly to market changes
- Optimize resources and materials usage
- Improve profit and loss balance
Careful consideration is required to achieve and maintain the competitive edge, especially when the market conditions are so swift to change. The sole concept that could be efficient under the current conditions in the market is to be oriented to world class production and management.
Integrated business management is the basis for world class production. It is relatively easy to improve particular areas, such as accounting, product design, process planning, resources planning and management. However, the improvement of a particular area of management does not maximize the efficiency of business management.
МАХ is an easy-to-use, fully integrated package aiming at a company who is willing to gain competitive advantage under the market conditions.
МАХ is developed to cover the core aspects of your company: production planning, procurement, sales, business planning and accounting.
МАХ gives total flexibility in multi-national export operations and provides multi-language and multi-currency functions.

Better quality of products and customer service leads to extensive business activity. Rapid implementation, efficient operations, facts-based management, quality of products and new services, market expansion and other benefits achieved thanks to МАХ account for its deployment in more than 500 enterprises today.
