Serus Solutions for Sales Order and WIP Management Will Drive Internal Business Process Management for Improved Customer Satisfaction

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. & TEMPE, Ariz. -- Serus Corp., a leading provider of Intelligent Operations Management (IOM) solutions for growing enterprises, today announced that Andigilog, Inc., a leading fabless analog and mixed-signal semiconductor company from Tempe, AZ, will use Serus' comprehensive Sales Order and Work-In-Process management software solutions to accommodate rapid sales expansion of the company's semiconductor products.

Andigilog will use the Serus' software to manage news sales orders and quotes through the Sales Order application while tightly integrating customer orders to WIP lots that track and value inventory at partner sites to help Andigilog more accurately predict customer ship dates. Scheduling backlog, managing engineering lots and customer orders are all done using Serus' software which allows Andigilog to build an operations system that enables the company to tightly integrate sales, operations and finance under a unified software platform. The result of adding Serus software is improved Andigilog customer satisfaction.

The Serus software solutions is ERP-agnostic, which allows Andigilog to use their current ERP solution integrated with Serus and continue to use Serus software in the future when they upgrade their ERP solution to a different vendor.

"We'll use Serus Software to drive our internal business processes together with best practices implemented from the Serus project team," said Steve Charron, director Supply Chain, at Andigilog. "We'll gain visibility into our WIP inventory with our subcontractors using Serus' trading partner integration technology. Serus offered us the ability to manage backlog and available WIP easily through their integrated approach to operations management, which was not available in any other solution in the market. Our decision to go with Serus allows us to ramp effectively as our business expands."

"Serus understands the importance of meeting customer delivery dates and the challenges fabless companies face when trying to predict product availability, Serus takes the guess work out of backlog scheduling," said Robert Gunn, Chief Marketing Officer, at Serus. "Andigilog chose Serus for having the best software solution that meets their growing needs today and to accommodate its business expansion for tomorrow."
