Electronics and electrical ERP for industrial SMEs
Synoptic ERP has been growing for more than 40 years alongside industry: designers, manufacturers and subcontractors of electronic boards, wiring specialists and electrical assembly specialists.
- Electronic boards
- SMT
- Wiring
- Integration
- Electrical enclosures
The ERP that supports electronics and electrical experts
Design or subcontracting of electronic boards, SMT assembly, traditional wiring, integration or manufacturing of electrical enclosures: whatever your business, Synoptic ERP fully adapts to the way you work.
Compared with generic ERPs, Synoptic ERP stands out for its flexibility and modularity.
Many of our electronics customers work for the defense sector: sovereignty and data security are among their requirements, just like traceability.
Supply shortages and lengthening purchasing lead times: every missing component delays delivery to the customer. The challenge is to optimize your inventory and to replace a component at the right time.
What makes Synoptic ERP different in electronics
Component management, traceability and procurement: on these three key electronics topics, Synoptic ERP provides precise answers.
Multiple manufacturers, equivalences and revisions
When a component has multiple manufacturers, Synoptic ERP takes them into account right down to the net requirements calculation (MRP).
- Manufacturers taken into account in MRP when a component has multiple manufacturers
- Multi-brand components managed in manufacturing bills of materials (customer BOM)
- Replacement components used by MRP
- Management of revisions and equivalences
- Reference designators: position of each component on your electronic boards
Traceability, quality and certifications
The quality module traces your products and components, and supports your certification processes.
- Upstream/downstream traceability by batch and/or serial number
- Finished products, semi-finished products and purchased components
- Quality control during or at the end of production and on receipt into stock
- Multi-level release of the finished product
- A module that supports our customers in their ATEX, UL and electrical safety certifications
Component procurement
Facing shortages and supply lead times, buy at the right price and at the right time.
- API interfaces with component distributors (Farnell, Digi-Key, Rexel, Sonepar...)
- Price, availability and dates checked to lock in your purchases
- From MRP, price displayed according to your main supplier
- Supplier evaluation
Our answers are tailored to your business
Designers, manufacturers and subcontractors of electronic boards, wiring, integration or electrical enclosure specialists: Synoptic ERP is fully designed to meet the specific needs of your trades.
- Reference designator management: position of each component on all your electronic boards.
- Requirements simulation at the delivery date as soon as a customer quote or order is entered.
- Average purchasing and manufacturing lead times displayed on a multi-level bill of materials, to give the customer an official date.
- RoHS and REACH compliance check of components, with a possible interface with SiliconExpert.
- WEEE eco-contribution applied to the selling price, based on the product code.
- Label management, in particular to identify your products by serial number.
- Interfaces with your production machines: component storage (Kardex), Essegi Automation, SMT placement (Europlacer), component counting.
- Optimization of transport costs, with a very large number of component suppliers.

Frequently asked questions about electronics ERP
Which ERP should an electronics SME choose?
Synoptic ERP is a modular ERP published and integrated by Proges Plus, which has been growing for more than 40 years alongside industrial SMEs. For electronics, it provides fine-grained management of revisions, equivalences and multi-brand components, reference designators, traceability by batch and/or serial number, RoHS and REACH compliance of components and interfaces with component distributors.
How does Synoptic ERP help you cope with a component shortage?
Synoptic ERP manages multi-brand components in manufacturing bills of materials (customer BOM) as well as equivalences between components. When a component has multiple manufacturers, the net requirements calculation (MRP) takes each manufacturer into account and uses equivalences to replace components. Interfaces with distributors such as Farnell, Digi-Key, Rexel or Sonepar let you check price, availability and dates before locking in your purchases.
Does Synoptic ERP ensure the traceability of electronic boards?
Yes. The Synoptic ERP quality module ensures upstream/downstream traceability of your finished and semi-finished products, as well as purchased components, by batch and/or serial number. It also enables quality monitoring during or at the end of production and on receipt into stock, with multi-level release of the finished product.
Does Synoptic ERP manage RoHS and REACH compliance?
Yes. Synoptic ERP lets you check the RoHS and REACH compliance of the components on your electronic boards. An interface with SiliconExpert retrieves up-to-date compliance data from the manufacturer part number.
Can you commit to a reliable delivery date at the quote stage?
When a customer quote or order is entered, Synoptic ERP simulates requirements at the delivery date using the net requirements calculation. Average purchasing and manufacturing lead times are displayed on a multi-level bill of materials, so you can quickly give the end customer an official date.
Does Synoptic ERP connect to electronics production machines?
Yes. As a publisher and integrator, Proges Plus has already set up several interfaces with production machines, for example Kardex component storage machines, Europlacer SMT placement machines or component counting machines.
