However, it is possible to calculate ROI based on average saving on labour cost, because the implementation of ERP\/MRP system improves the production planning which could significantly improve the efficiency of the manufacturing process and reduce labour cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Minnesota based company \u201cBusiness Automation Specialists\u201d brings the following numbers from their experience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>16% reduction in inventory<\/li><li>19% reduction in operational costs<\/li><li>17% reduction in administrative costs.<\/li><li>17% of improvements in complete and on-time shipments.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For a small manufacturing company with 50 blue collar workers and estimated cost of production hour including salary and production overhead in $ 10\/hour, which is typical for optimized cost countries, and 168 work hours per month the total direct production cost is $84,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s assume the company will reduce the number of manufacturing hours by 5% due to better planning supported by the ERP\/MRP system. This is equal to $4,200 improvement in bottom line every month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This calculation illustrates the obvious benefit of implementing the cloud-based and easy-to-implement ERP\/MRP system, like MRPeasy. The positive business case and short-term ROI is self-explanatory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Return of Investment is a critical indicator when deciding on investment in any asset.
