Falcon V FlowPower from JCIT; JCIT Releases Fifth- Generation Software System Aiding Demand Flow Technology Manufacturing Companies in Their Quest for ''Speed-to-Market''
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--July 26, 1999--The creator and world leader in Demand Flow(R) manufacturing technology announced today that the fifth generation of Falcon V FlowPower(R) software is available for customer shipments. Designed for manufacturing organizations that implement Demand Flow(R) Technology (DFT), Falcon V FlowPower(R) gives corporations the necessary tools to manage their daily manufacturing business based on customer demand.This new generation of Flow Manufacturing software has already been implemented and embraced by two Fortune 100 corporations.
Falcon V FlowPower(R) is the state-of-the art solution for the manufacturer that is looking for the path beyond the outdated scheduling systems of MRPII and ERP. Based upon a foundation of advanced planning and production scheduling, MRP and ERP antiquated planning and production techniques are used to drive labor-based accounting and forecasting business philosophies. Falcon V FlowPower(R) allows manufacturers to drive production to customer demand by adjusting their production volumes and mixes every day without scheduling production assemblies or machines.
"Falcon V FlowPower(R) and Demand Flow(R) Technology is an integrated business strategy that enables the entire organization to compete in the global economy," said John R. Costanza, President and CEO of JCIT. "By eliminating the rigidity and overhead associated with schedule-based manufacturing, DFT companies benefit from dramatically reduced working capital, less finished goods inventory and more flexible employees."
Patented by the John Costanza Institute of Technology (JCIT), DFT is a comprehensive business strategy that enables companies to manufacture products based on actual customer demand instead of inaccurate forecasts. Developed in 1984 as a mathematically based process, DFT increases a company's market share and profit by shortening the manufacturing process and response time to customers. Falcon V FlowPower(R) implements this proven business strategy within traditional ERP systems via a Windows NT-based open and scaleable client-server architecture.
"Falcon V FlowPower(R) is not a bolt or alternative to your enterprise system; instead it is a tightly integrated application that provides complete functionality and data integration with existing legacy systems," said Keith A. Pollock, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, JCIT. Adding, "Falcon V FlowPower(R) is easily coupled to existing enterprise solutions, giving our clients around the globe DFT application tools."
