Most ERP systems were built for everyone. Epicor Kinetic was built for manufacturers.
If you run a manufacturing or distribution business in Indonesia, you already know the challenges — managing production schedules that change by the hour, keeping inventory accurate across multiple warehouses, tracking costs across complex bills of material, and meeting compliance requirements that never seem to stop growing.
And if you have tried solving these problems with a generic ERP, you have probably experienced the frustration of forcing a system to do something it was never designed to do. Workarounds on top of workarounds. Manual exports into spreadsheets. Reports that never quite match reality.
Epicor Kinetic changes that. It is a cloud-based ERP purpose-built for manufacturing, distribution and supply chain management — and Apergu Solutions is your licensed implementation partner to bring it to Indonesia.
What is Epicor Kinetic?
Epicor Kinetic is a cloud-native ERP platform designed specifically for mid-market and enterprise manufacturers. Unlike horizontal ERPs that try to serve every industry, Epicor is laser-focused on the unique workflows of manufacturing and distribution businesses.
Trusted by over 20,000 companies in more than 150 countries, Epicor Kinetic delivers end-to-end visibility across your entire operation — from the shop floor to the top floor.
The platform is built on a modern, flexible architecture that supports both cloud and on-premise deployments, giving Indonesian manufacturers the freedom to choose an infrastructure model that fits their business.
Key capabilities
Production management
Epicor Kinetic gives you real-time control over your entire production process. From job scheduling and work order management to shop floor tracking and labour reporting, every step of your manufacturing workflow is visible, measurable and optimisable.
Whether you operate in make-to-order, make-to-stock, engineer-to-order or mixed-mode environments, Epicor adapts to your production methodology — not the other way around.
Material requirements planning
Running out of raw materials mid-production is expensive. Overstocking ties up working capital. Epicor's MRP engine balances both by calculating exactly what you need, when you need it, and from which supplier — based on real-time demand signals, lead times and current inventory levels.
Supply chain management
Managing suppliers, purchase orders, receiving and logistics across multiple locations is complex. Epicor simplifies it by connecting your entire supply chain into a single platform with real-time visibility. Track orders from purchase requisition to delivery, manage vendor performance, and automate reorder points based on actual consumption patterns.
Quality management
For manufacturers serving regulated industries or maintaining international certifications, quality control is not optional. Epicor Kinetic includes built-in quality management tools that let you define inspection plans, track non-conformances, manage corrective actions and maintain full audit trails — all integrated directly into your production workflow.
Financial management
Your manufacturing data and financial data should live in the same system. Epicor Kinetic connects production costs, inventory valuations, accounts payable, accounts receivable and general ledger into a unified financial platform. Multi-currency, multi-site and multi-company support is built in — critical for Indonesian manufacturers with international operations.
Business intelligence and analytics
Real-time dashboards and customisable reports give you instant visibility into KPIs like OEE, throughput, scrap rates, on-time delivery and cost per unit. Epicor's analytics layer turns your operational data into actionable insight without requiring a separate BI tool.
Why Epicor Kinetic for Indonesian manufacturers?
Indonesia's manufacturing sector is one of the largest in Southeast Asia, contributing significantly to the country's GDP. As the industry grows more competitive and global supply chains become more complex, Indonesian manufacturers need technology that can keep pace.
- Purpose-built for manufacturing. Unlike generic ERPs that require heavy customisation to handle manufacturing workflows, Epicor is designed for production environments from the ground up — faster implementation, fewer workarounds, and a system that speaks your language from day one.
- Scalable for growth. Whether you operate a single plant or multiple facilities across Indonesia and beyond, Epicor Kinetic scales with your business. Add new sites, new product lines or new markets without ripping out your core system.
- Cloud-native flexibility. A modern cloud architecture means lower infrastructure costs, automatic updates, and access from anywhere. For manufacturers with distributed operations, this changes the calculation entirely.
- Compliance-ready. Epicor supports local tax requirements, international reporting standards and industry-specific regulations out of the box.
