Manufacturing

Our history is deeply rooted in discrete manufacturing supply chain consulting—in fact, it’s one of the reasons we choose to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 exclusively. Dynamics 365 is the hands-down winner for manufacturing organizations. It helps you tighten the weakest links in your supply chain and improve planning, costing, storing, and routing of the various inputs through the process, which helps to reduce waste, move more efficiently, and improve margins. And with Sunrise’s unrivaled experience in discrete manufacturing and industry extensions for Dynamics 365, you'll be able to hit the ground running with your ERP + CRM project (with embedded business intelligence).

WE KNOW WHAT YOU NEED, WHICH MEAN'S WE'LL DELIVER IT ALL. AND THEN SOME.

Global sourcing and manufacturing is tough enough. Trying to expand into new product lines and sales channels on top of that puts tremendous strain on the supply chain. Your ability to produce the right products, in the right quantities, at the right time, with good quality, and at a price the customer is willing to pay is mission critical. You’ll need to be able to make quick decisions based on accurate data. And, you’ll need flexibility and real-time visibility into global operations. Sunrise’s industry solution for discrete manufacturers combines the power and flexibility of Dynamics 365, the best practices and experience of Sunrise, and the elasticity and affordability of the Microsoft cloud. With our solution, you’ll be able to:
