Other systems help you track an inventory. MISys is designed to help you control your inventory.

Like other inventory systems, MISys can tell you what you have in stock and where its located. For MISys Manufacturing customers, that's simply not enough. Our customers enjoy a typical savings of 25-50% in inventory carrying costs because MISys has the ability to:

• Forecast inventory based on history, lead times, vendor performance
• Maintain accurate minimum order levels for "just in case" scenarios
• Let the system order only what you need, when you need it

Every manufacturer needs the functionality included in the Basic Manufacturing module of MISys Manufacturing.
