Re: ERP Vendors

Congratulations on working for an automotive supplier that can afford a 
new ERP package at this time.

Anyway...

We use BPCS from Infor for our ERP.  We are in the process of upgrading 
from their ancient 405CD version to their latest and greatest.  We are the 
third customer to ever use SSA and the oldest one still doing so.  You can 
call Chris Edwards for reference details.  That's not really my area of 
expertise.  There can be significant charges for certain upgrades.

For EDI we are using Inovis (aka Harbinger, Premenos, ACS Network 
Systems).  We've been with them since back on the S/36 days.  Used to be 
my area of expertise but that's been passed over to another now.  We used 
to keep it on a separate box because of their tiered pricing but Chris 
wanted system consolidation so we bit the bullet and put them on the big 
boy.  Other than that I was always happy with them.  But as I've said, 
I've been out of that picture a few acquisitions ago.

ps:  I hear your other daughter has one due in November - congratulations.
