Ramco has been delivering ERP solutions to customers around the world for over a decade. Built using leading edge technology, the ERP products represent years of accumulated industry knowledge and expertise captured in an integrated application.
Ramco ERP products are based on Ramco VirtualWorks to provide companies with the flexibility they need to rapidly respond to evolving corporate imperatives, regulatory changes, and market conditions. Rather than re-deploy enterprise systems as the company reacts to these changes, the underlying platform can leverage business process models to quickly compose new business assets for true “change on demand.”

Enterprise Series

Built for large to very large global companies, the Enterprise Series delivers flexible and extensible world-class business processes captured in a SOA framework. Traditional ERP packages built on proprietary platforms lock customers into business processes that are defined at the time of deployment. Substantial process changes due to market opportunities and evolving business priorities require expensive and time-consuming re-deployments, hampering flexibility and responsiveness.

Ramco ERP eliminates this challenge by using a pure SOA architecture leveraging business process assets instead of proprietary software modules. Proven in hundreds of deployments over the last decade, Ramco ERP can help process and discrete manufacturers as well as logistics-based or asset-intensive businesses gain the competitive edge they need to thrive in today’s dynamic marketplace.

SMB Series

Small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) have always been challenging for large ERP vendors to address. Built on proprietary platforms, these systems generally cannot scale down to a level of efficiency needed by SMBs. Because Ramco’s SMB Series is SOA- based and built using business assets rather than individual software modules, SMB’s can get exactly the process capabilities they need, without all of the overhead from a large-scale system. In addition, because the platforms are the same between Enterprise and SMB solutions, migration to a more comprehensive system is possible once a company has achieved a certain scale.

Delivered as a complete SOA-based solution, client/server, or as a hosted onDemand solution depending on the market, the SMB Series provides small to mid-sized businesses with exactly the capabilities they need at a price they can afford.

The platform provides complete and continuous alignment of business processes and applications by integrating process model blueprinting, services development, legacy migration, a business services repository, and an integrated services environment to assemble applications.

Based on SOA standards, Ramco VirtualWorks provides a uniform, non-proprietary architecture that works with all technologies and infrastructure platforms. Tailored enterprise applications are now a reality by leveraging over 1,000 pre-built business services or by co-creating new ones for easy and rapid reuse, with the highest level of software quality.
