Job Tracking System Software

[Timja]

Can anyone recomend software such as Navision to use as a base for tracking our work through a variety of processes until it is despatched? Or any companies that develop custom tracking systems?

I'm aware of MS Dynamics NAV but just wondered if anyone used any other software they could recommend? Ideally we would like a system we can link into our CRM package (Goldmine) and link to accounts package (Currently Sage, but happy to look around) then would want to link to our couriers for despatching.

we use Tricorn

But also look at:

myworkplan

rentIT

these are good manufacturing packages, rentIT is very cheap to run, and can save big upfront payments, and includes updates, if you want some more info let me know! (this isnt my company, i was given a demo by them, and it was very impressive, as they want to tear me away from Tricorn, but i have been using it for years and didnt want to change.

Thanks, think they are a bit too manufacturing based for us. We are more lowish value reasonable volume personalised individual products that are printed so not sure they would be suitable.

Will have a look at SAP software and plasticpig may well give you a call when we have a more formal plan of what we require.

Cheers,
Tim.

Been working in this area for a few years now and involved with several ERP/DRP systems both software selection and subsequent roll out. Glad to help, currently in the middle of a full ERP job/contract management software roll out.

Lots of options in the market depends upon your objectives,budget and what level of integration you require

Drop me a line and be delighted to be help.

SAP is manufacturing based at it's heart.

To be honest, better off giving them a miss unless you are after a full blown ERP & have cash to burn.
