Apriso Corp.

Apriso is a software company dedicated to providing competitive advantage to its customers. We do that by developing solutions that help customers meet both planned and unexpected events in their operations. Our flagship product, FlexNet, is both an adaptive operations execution platform and a suite of modular applications in a single solution. Built on a unified data model, the software tightly synchronizes activity in all areas of a manufacturer's operations, in real time. FlexNet uniquely delivers a solution that covers manufacturing execution, quality management, computerized maintenance management, warehouse management, time & labor, and supply chain visibility. The software is based on a true Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), making it ideal for activity that lies between the ERP layer and the plant floor. At the heart of the platform is Process Builder, a business process management tool that enables the solutions adaptability. Using a drag-and-drop interface, business process owners can author Web-enabled electronic process "flows" that become available to workstations within the four walls of their operations, or out to their extended enterprise through thin client access -- all without coding. The ability to adapt quickly to changing business drivers, without enlisting outside support or bringing your system down, creates tremendous advantage and agility for manufacturers doing business in increasingly competitive, highly regulated industries. FlexNet is built to be ERP-centric. The product adds robust functionality to a manufacturer's ERP system through operations execution on the shop floor, where it's needed most. Apriso is one of SAP's closest development partners in manufacturing. In December 2005 Apriso achieved "Powered by SAP NetWeaver for Industry Standards" status, one of only a handful of vendors to do so. Apriso products are used in more than 400 facilities on five continents. Our customers span such industries as Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, Medical Device, Pharmaceuticals, Mill Products and Electronics.
