DELECO® ERP - Inventory Management, Production, Maintenance
A Simple, Comprehensive ERP Solution for Complex Business Processes in Mid-Sized CompaniesUpdated on 17. Jul 2026 by SoftGuide
DELECO® ERP is a modular enterprise software solution for medium-sized manufacturing companies. The solution integrates business processes, inventory and materials management, production planning, production data collection, project management, cost control, and maintenance into a single database. This ensures that information is available across departments—from the initial customer contact through purchasing and manufacturing to delivery and technical service.
Particularly in metalworking, mechanical and plant engineering, and equipment manufacturing, material requirements, technical documentation, deadlines, and capacities must be closely coordinated. DELECO® helps you manage multi-level bills of materials and work plans, import design data from CAD and PDM systems, and generate production orders from them. Production and setup times, required resources, and available materials are immediately incorporated into the planning process.
The integrated control center provides transparency regarding capacity utilization, production status, and deadlines. Qualifications and shift schedules can be taken into account during workforce planning. Feedback from the production floor is recorded via PC workstations, terminals, MDE scanners, or mobile applications. In addition to production and setup times, quantities, scrap, and processing progress can be documented. The data is immediately available for target-actual comparisons, post-calculation analyses, and evaluations.
Inventory management and procurement are also directly linked to production. DELECO® reconciles demand with inventory levels, assigns materials to the respective orders, and supports the creation of purchase order proposals. Serial numbers, batches, and different storage locations can be managed consistently throughout the system. In sales, the process ranges from versioned quotes through orders and deliveries to down payment, partial, and final invoices.
Maintenance management complements the ERP and production functions. You manage machines and equipment in hierarchical object structures, plan time- or counter-based maintenance, and document repairs, replacement parts, and technical documentation. Malfunctions can be reported directly at the site and then processed further in the system.
With DELECO®, you get a centralized work environment where business and technical processes are seamlessly integrated. The provider will be happy to show you, based on your requirements, which modules and functions are best suited for your workflows.

DELECO® is primarily aimed at medium-sized manufacturing companies. These include, among others, companies in the fields of mechanical and plant engineering, metalworking, equipment manufacturing, as well as single-unit, small-batch, and contract manufacturing.
The software includes modules for CRM, inventory and materials management, production, time management, project management, cost analysis, maintenance, finance, controlling, and document management. The required set of features can be customized to meet the company’s specific needs.
Yes. DELECO® combines ERP and PPS functions and supports planning from the work plan and bill of materials all the way through to the completion notification. Capacities, deadlines, resources, and the current production status can be monitored centrally.
Production orders can be generated based on stored bills of materials, work plans, operation times, and setup times. A multi-step approval process and the output of associated technical documents are also supported.
Data that can be recorded includes, among other things, setup and cycle times, quantities, scrap, and the start, end, or duration of individual work operations. Data can be entered via PC workstations, terminals, MDE scanners, or mobile applications.
Yes. Through appropriate interfaces, parts, design data, and multi-level bills of materials can be exchanged between CAD/PDM applications and DELECO®. This reduces duplicate data entry between design and production planning.
The inventory management system tracks sales and purchasing transactions, inventory levels, material planning, physical inventory counts, serial numbers, and lots. The system’s functionality also includes quote versions, partial invoices, and item and production cost calculations.
You can manage machinery and equipment in a structured manner, define maintenance cycles, and process repair orders. Equipment histories, inspection procedures, spare parts, and technical documents are directly assigned to the respective items.
Yes. Mobile features are available for production confirmations, time entries, inventory counts, and trouble tickets, among other things. In maintenance, current maintenance orders can also be viewed and edited outside of a fixed office workstation.
DELECO® compares estimated costs with actual expenses and revenues. Factors taken into account include, for example, labor hours, material costs, machine hours, open orders, and third-party services. This enables pre- and post-project cost analyses at the order and project levels.
