CAD is an acronym for computer-aided design which is used to make designing products easier with smart software, frequently used in projects with an engineering nature. ERP stands for enterprise resource planning and is a single software system that is used to manage the daily activities in any business from project management, procurement, risk management and compliance, and other important operations. 

If you find that you haven’t integrated them yet, then you are missing a big part of making your systems more efficient. Here are some advantages of integrating both your CAD and ERP systems. 

Faster production

By integrating both CAD and ERP systems, your products can be updated in real-time without the need for any re-entry of data. You will be able to release products faster and speed up the time before production. 

Fewer errors 

Many errors can be made when you do things twice. When you integrate both systems into one, you would not have to re-enter your data, allowing you to become more accurate with your data. A single system design also streamlines the inventory of the different parts. Any discrepancies found will be notified to you so you can take further action before it escalates. 

Save time and money

Lessening the room for error with a single system of both CAD and ERP systems can save you money. Mistakes can be very costly and can hamper your entire operation process. Getting the benefits of speed, accuracy, and efficiency can save your organization a lot of time, effort and money.  

Getting rid of the menial task of entering data over and over again can help your designers focus on what they do best — the designing itself. This ties itself with the cost efficiency benefit of saving yourself from the cost of mistakes and delays can translate to savings in time as well. 

Reuse parts 

Integrating both CAD and ERP systems can help in alerting you of products you still have in stock and those that you still need. Redesigning can be very costly so knowing the parts that are available is really important especially in the design phase. 

Seamless process 

Leverage the benefit of integrating systems together and simplifying processes into one makes it easier for everyone involved in the whole process. Instead of thinking of both software as two separate tools you just happen to use, experience the seamless nature when they are used together.
