Sage supports German manufacturing companies with cloud solution for more efficiency and growth

Sage, a leading provider of specialized solutions for SMEs in accounting, ERP, finance, HR, and payroll, launched Sage Distribution and Manufacturing Operations (SDMO) in Germany. The ERP solution provides small and medium-sized distributors and discrete manufacturing companies with complete transparency and control over their purchasing, production, warehousing, and sales processes. The solution also helps them improve efficiency, productivity, and growth.

World Bank data shows that the share of manufacturing in Germany’s GDP has fallen from 25 percent to just 19 percent. Maintaining its position as a global leader has become increasingly difficult. SDMO is designed to help small and medium-sized distributors as well as independent manufacturing businesses become more resilient and competitive. With modern features such as real-time material requirements planning (MRP), dynamic production orders, and digital production calendars, SDMO helps operational teams’ managers automate and streamline complex tasks.

SDMO leverages cloud-native technology on a single platform, providing the adaptability and agility needed to quickly respond to supply and demand changes due to market volatility and supply chain challenges. The ERP solution covers industry-standard best practices and offers advanced multi-site inventory management and powerful reporting capabilities with industry-specific KPIs and dashboards, helping companies better understand where to prioritize their resources.

By integrating with Sage Intacct – the company’s financial management solution, which is now also available in Germany – SDMO offers enhanced business intelligence, tax compliance, and real-time insights to improve business growth and gain a competitive advantage. This integration creates a comprehensive solution that enables companies to seamlessly manage both their operational and financial needs, enhancing overall success in a challenging economic environment.
