KeyedIn™ Solutions Launches New Cloud-based Manufacturing System for Enterprises

MINNEAPOLIS, June 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyedIn Solutions announced today the launch of its new KeyedIn Manufacturing – Enterprise Edition Cloud solution that enables a smooth, step-by-step evolution of critical business processes to the Cloud and maximizes efficient business management to meet the needs of large enterprise manufacturers.

Designed by manufacturing experts, KeyedIn Manufacturing – Enterprise Edition helps customers reduce software and infrastructure costs by moving to a more efficient, scalable Cloud model. With full integration to Tier 1 and Tier 2 ERP systems, manufacturers can leverage the benefits of their existing systems with the productivity of a Cloud solution and over time transition their full system to the KeyedIn™ Manufacturing solution.

"Manufacturers have typically struggled with expensive and onerous ERP implementations or upgrades, while failing to fully capitalize on the benefits promised because of the complexity of these archaic systems," said Lauri Klaus, CEO of KeyedIn Solutions, Inc.  "Our manufacturing experts have boiled this down to enable a very manageable, yet highly effective, transition toward Cloud deployment. This means the manufacturer enjoys the full utility of the software almost immediately, with the downstream advantages of operating in the Cloud."

This innovative new Cloud-based software offers all the capabilities of an on-premise manufacturing system without the cost of IT infrastructure or the time-consuming process of implementing plant-by-plant. KeyedIn operates entirely in the Cloud, enabling fast deployment and frequent, automatic and seamless updates, to ensure the enterprise always has the most up-to-date solution without added expense.

Built on Konfigure™, the KeyedIn application platform as a service (aPaaS), KeyedIn Manufacturing – Enterprise Edition enables simplified configuration to a company's unique environment without complex and expensive coding.

General Manager of Manufacturing at KeyedIn, Ralf Suerken adds, "Large enterprises often manage their disparate plant operations with a multitude of systems as they have grown through acquisition, needed to conform to country standards, etc. In addition, IT departments are evaluating the Cloud today and are pressured to move their organizations to the Cloud. KeyedIn Manufacturing offers a step by step, plant-by-plant approach to the Cloud without replacing current ERP systems that works well on the enterprise level.  We begin by enabling a large enterprise to manage the plant operations to see the power of this system. "
