UEC IT Extends UEC OFS Solution to Support Order-to-Cash Process

UEC IT, a unit of USX Engineers & Consultants Inc., today announced the release of a new version of UEC OFS, Client/Server Version 3.0 (UEC OFS), a technology solution that tracks orders and material from order inquiry to invoice. Designed for the Process Industries, UEC OFS is based on the best-in-class solutions at major process manufacturing facilities. The solution provides clients with a sophisticated order-to-cash system that gives them a tool to help significantly improve customer satisfaction, reduce costs of order and material handling, improve inventory management, reduce cycle time, and improve cash flow.

UEC OFS manages the business logic necessary to accept, validate and deliver order status information in real-time. The new version, recently upgraded to Microsoft Sequel Server 7.0 and Powerbuilder 7.0, will provide additional functionality to enter multiple item orders, track additional physical property tests, and streamline production recording. It also includes improved methods to accurately schedule and record production throughout a facility. The technology also features additional modules such as Cost Accounting and Claims that can be incorporated into the UEC OFS application to enable users to further improve customer satisfaction.

The power of UEC OFS gives multiple departments access to real-time order and material information to better manage the production and delivery of customers' orders while maintaining data integrity. When integrated into a B2B marketplace or ExtraNet environment, UEC OFS provides the backbone support necessary to leverage a customers' eCommerce strategy.

John Zambelli, Vice President, UEC IT said, "UEC IT understands manufacturing and the order-to-cash process. The new version of UEC OFS is another example of how UEC IT is providing sophisticated system solutions to help our customers increase revenues, decrease costs, and improve customer service."
