Window Manufacturing Software

To stay competitive and succeed, every manufacturer must target and achieve peak performance at all levels. This means more than just producing the best possible product. Frontier ERP is window manufacturing software designed to help you deliver quality products, on time, and at a realistic price. It means staying on the very leading edge of technology and tying it all together by taking advantage of the latest in internal automation at every business level; financial, customer-facing, and manufacturing.

Manufacturers of windows, doors, and other flat-glass products (such as shower enclosures and heavy glass fixtures) face all of these same challenges as other manufacturers. Order management, inventory control and planning, production control, scheduling, and finance are all key requirements.

However, manufacturers in these industries also face additional challenges:

The configurator in Frontier’s window manufacturing software enables easy global updates of materials or finishes without having to adjust each window in an order.

  • To-order manufacturing. Most (if not all) products are built to customer specifications, which can vary on an order-by-order basis. Dimensions, colors, and configurations can be different for every order and job.
  • The dealer channel. Manufacturers of windows typically do not deal directly with the consumer. They must accept orders from dealers and provide additional support services to those dealers to ensure loyalty. Furthermore, they must be able to quickly provide quotes to their dealers, who themselves may be in a competitive situation.
  • Material optimization. When the majority of products are made-to-order, it is vital to optimize the use of “cut-to-size” materials such as extrusions and glass to maximize yield and drive down overall material costs.
