Intuitive offers rich functionality for a broad range of manufacturing environments, including electronics, medical devices, aviation, and others, and makes implementation easy for small to midsized companies. Made2Manage provides full ERP capabilities for custom manufacturers centered on a “casual” bill-of-material for making complex products, while continuing with design and engineering activity. Encompix goes beyond standard ERP to offer project scheduling and management for engineer-to-order projects that involve complex manufacturing and close tracking of projects, costs, and schedules. AXIS is the premiere solution for manufacturers of metals, wire, and cable, as well as metals service centers. Cimnet Systems offers comprehensive support for printed circuit board engineering and fabrication, including design, fabrication, and certification. Professional services and outsourced engineering services are also available. Configuration Solutions’ rules-based configurator integrates with Consona’s ERP offerings and others.
Encompix, a Consona Industry Solution, is the leader in enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions that enable ETO- and project-based manufacturers to improve profits and on-time delivery. Encompix ERP software grew out of the requirements of a consortium of project-based companies that felt that traditional material requirements planning (MRP)-based systems did not adequately address their needs. Much of the vendor's development over the years has its roots in enhancements built to address specific business problems faced by users.

The TEC Quick Case for Made2Manage
by TEC staff writer
Made2Manage specializes in manufacturing management for small and medium-sized discrete, engineer-to-order, and make-to-order manufacturers. This Quick Case for Made2Manage provides concise background information, which is oriented toward organizations considering its Enterprise Business System. Battery Power Shakes Up Made2Manage
Part Two: Challenges and User Recommendations
by P.J. Jakovljevic
The time for existing Made2Manage customers and partners to act is now. The new owners’ motivation in buying the product and vendor must have been the install base and that is you. Showing interest and being vocal about your needs is your part in keeping the relationship the way you want it. Battery Power Shakes Up Made2Manage
by P.J. Jakovljevic
While Made2Manage's decision to go private under a wealthy Battery Ventures' wing, which was supposedly committed to invest in the acquired technology was prudent at the time of announcement; subsequent events might be showing us a different side of the buyout medal. Although the draconic exodus of former executives and subsequent layoffs may at the end of the day result with some benefits for the customers (e.g., the vendor's stability and improved delivery of product functionality and quality) albeit within the vendor's future sweet spot. While the target market remains small and midsize manufacturers, that more granular sweet spot is yet to be determined and vocally unveiled by the new management.

Is Made2Manage Made2Survive? Seems So.
by P.J. Jakovljevic
