Plex Manufacturing Cloud

Aerospace and defense manufacturers exist in a supply chain burdened with regulation and quality compliance initiatives.

To complicate matter more, each OEM has unique program requirements. Whether it’s Boeing’s BQMS, Lockheed’s STAR, UTC’s Supplier Gold Program, or others, compliance falls squarely on the shoulders of manufacturing suppliers.

Now it’s easier than ever to get manufacturing-ready ERP that’s sized just right. Whether your business is large or small, business is better in the Plex Manufacturing Cloud because, just like you, the plant floor is at the heart of everything we do.
