South Wales based electronics manufacturer Swan EMS specialise in wire harnessing, custom cables and PCB assemblies, and integrating these into a complete system build. In a rapidly evolving industry, it’s essential to maintain a competitive advantage. Swan EMS do this by improving efficiencies, reducing costs and driving growth using Sage 200, an advanced manufacturing and MRP system.

Streamlined processes and increased production productivity
Legacy systems and processes couldn’t keep pace with rapid expansion
After a period of expansion Swan EMS found it increasingly difficult and time-consuming to manage functions such as accurate stock control, reporting, costing and traceability. Their legacy system, Sage 50 with a bolt-on manufacturing solution, was inefficient and unstable, absorbing a lot of administration time and impacting productivity.
The right partner with the right solution
Swan EMS wanted a Sage business partner with a strong reputation to implement a robust and seamlessly integrated accounts and ERP solution across all departments. We were able to demonstrate both industry expertise and deep knowledge of the Sage 200 systems and were chosen to implement the desired solution: Sage 200 Professional with ERP modules including Bill of Materials, Works Order Processing, MRP, MPS, Capacity Planning and Shop Floor Data Capture.
“Sage 200 Manufacturing and Prosys Computing have been pivotal to our growth. As well as extensive time and cost savings, this manufacturing system can grow with us.”
Positioned for continuous growth
- With Sage 200, Swan EMS have the visibility, information and control to help maintain and improve a higher level of productivity, cost efficiency and customer service.
- The system has enhanced management of several operational functions, such as one-off production builds, complex multi-level bill of materials, design stages and production cost analysis.
- This scalable and adaptable solution has increased their capabilities and enabled them to work on more advanced projects safe in the knowledge their system can grow with them as they grow.
