With a solid track record of working with Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) companies, the Clients First Texas and Minnesota teams understand the complexity involved in the aviation and equipment repair industry: FAA requirements, serial tracking, tracking labor, expenses, inventory, customer service management, accurate quoting and more. It’s not unusual to find MRO organizations maintaining quotes on one system, while collecting time on another. Unfortunately, without a complete MRO solution, data has to be re-entered, validated, confirmed and consolidated- making a simple task an expensive problem.
Solutions for the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Firms
Small to mid-sized or large maintenance, repair and overhaul companies should have choices when it comes to investing in new finance and operations software. Clients First gives our prospects options: ProMRO for Acumatica Cloud ERP and Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. Each of our solutions is designed for the aviation or heavy equipment or aviation MRO. Choosing which solution is right for you is a team effort and our recommendation will be based on your company size and business requirements. There are many differences, but at a high level here is the primary difference:
- ProMRO for Acumatica is designed for the small to mid-sized MRO that needs to run lean but still have the deep functionality needed to ensure costing and compliance needs are being met in one easy to use solution.
- Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain is designed for the mid-sized to large enterprise MRO that has a large staff and perhaps multiple lines of business, even a global presence. Dynamics 365 may require modifications to meet your specific business requirements. Many MRO features and operations are available out of the box.
Regardless of your size, our team of sales consultants and system engineers can help you determine the best solution for your company.
Aviation or Heavy Equipment
The process from the quote to the invoice is moving faster and faster. What used to be efficient in managing data between systems is now obsolete. The time it takes to download inventory information from one software maintenance management system, format it, import it and post it into a new system is eliminated with complete and integrated maintenance management software. This is why Clients First has developed ProMRO applications specifically for the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul industry.
By leveraging one of the largest and trusted software providers in the world, the Clients First team gives MRO organizations the power to manage their maintenance operations with visibility and control from the quoting process, through the invoice all the way to reporting. Dashboards and access are tailored to user roles, making their responsibilities easily accessible from one screen. Users no longer have to download inventory and post it to the maintenance management software system, inventory values can be displayed next to active projects, giving real-time access to decision-making data. But this is just an example. Imagine the implications of having integrated data for quotes, invoices and reporting. Organizations can attain a level of accuracy like never before.
