Manufacturing Enterprise Resource Planning in New Orleans

New Orleans is the largest city and in the state of Louisiana. The New Orleans metropolitan area has a population of approximately one million people.  New Orleans is the forty-sixth largest city in the United States.  The state of Louisiana and the New Orleans area in particular is where a large portion of America’s oil refining and petrochemical production takes place.  The health care industry and manufacturing industry play a big role in New Orleans’s business and employment sector.  Some manufacturers in New Orleans include; Motors and Controls Inc., Times-Picayune, RP Associates Inc., Archlume Inc., and Martin Marietta.  Martin Marietta manufactures aerospace components for NASA space projects.  Martin Marietta employs a large work force at its New Orleans operations center.

Because there are many manufacturers, it is important to have a manufacturing ERP in New Orleans.  If fact, the population of manufacturers in New Orleans will most likely increase in the near future due to state incentive programs.  If you want to be a competitive manufacturer, you’ll need a manufacturing ERP in New Orleans.  The Louisiana Urban Enterprise Zone program now offers tax credits and incentives to businesses.  Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers may have taxes on specific properties and inventories reduced by the government and credited against the state corporate and personal income taxes and the corporation franchise tax.  The state of Louisiana implemented a Louisiana Quality Jobs Act, which provides a tax rebate on payrolls for ten years to new companies.  The Louisiana Capital Investment Tax Credit program provides a five percent franchise tax credit annually for twenty years for new companies.

A manufacturing ERP in New Orleans will not only provide you with the competitive edge, it will streamline and enhance your manufacturing processes, reduce inventory storage levels, and provide you with key information with real time reporting capabilities.  When our current “down” economy is over, you’ll be ready to sell more products, increase production, increase customer satisfaction and more with your manufacturing ERP solution.  It’s simply unrealistic to imagine a manufacturer, especially a large manufacturer, without a manufacturing Enterprise Resource Planning solution.  These solutions work or they wouldn’t be growing in number by eighteen percent annually.

Think “return on investment” (ROI).  Some manufacturing ERP solutions provide a rather quick ROI.  However, the ROI on every Enterprise Resource Planning solution is different for every manufacturer.  ROI also depends on the size of your manufacturing business and the type of ERP your implement (for example, on-site versus SaaS).
