Ridder iQ: Made by manufacturers, for manufacturers
There are plenty of ERPs to choose from – but not all of them meet the needs of manufacturers like yours.
RidderiQ is different. Our industry-leading manufacturing ERP software is tailored for discrete, custom, make-to-order, make-to-stock, assemble-to-order, engineer-to-order, and configure-to-order manufacturing environments.
It makes doing business easier – so you can get on with doing a good job for your customers.
Birmingham-based Savekers Solutions, a metal products manufacturer, is already seeing the benefits.
Ridder iQ is now a key part of the company’s operations. Following a smooth implementation, the team is already uncovering new opportunities to work more efficiently.
Some manufacturers don’t think an ERP manufacturing solution is for them. They think they’re too small, or the software is too expensive.
But it doesn’t matter how big or small your operations are – automating time-consuming processes will save you time and money, and help you grow your business.
From first enquiry to order, right through to the final invoice, Ridder iQ is a straightforward yet comprehensive cloud ERP solution that will support you and your team from anywhere.
Benefits of Ridder iQ:
- Optimised materials planning for production: Automatically trigger material orders based on real-time production schedules and BOM requirements, ensuring components are always available when needed – no more downtime due to missing parts.
- Full visibility from raw materials to finished goods: Track every step in the production flow – from supplier deliveries to shop floor routing – and coordinate seamlessly between planning, procurement, and logistics
- From engineering to finance – all in one system: Manage the entire manufacturing process in one integrated platform: from engineering and BOM management to production planning, and delivery. Gain full control, eliminate double data entry, and streamline your operations from start to finish
“I’d say the whole implementation process has been extremely straightforward and easy to navigate. The ongoing support from ECI has helped the team get up to speed quickly, and I have no doubt that Ridder will unlock a range of untapped efficiencies across the business.”
