Easy to use software aimed at small manufacturers

Tailored to small manufacturers, an inexpensive, easy-to-use software package includes standard forms and modules to run both office and shop.
Cleveland-based Freedom Applications has developed AMMO (Access Manufacturing Management Overlay). An inexpensive, easy-to-use software package, AMMO includes standard forms and modules to run both office and shop. Tailored to small manufacturers, AMMO fills the application gap between simple accounting packages that only produce invoices and checks and more complicated ERP/MRP systems.

Recognizing that many small manufacturers and metalworkers already use QuickBooksÆ’, Freedom Applications upgraded their software so that Version 3.2 integrates data with QuickBooks Pro 2002a and 2003a.

Uniquely, with AMMO, you can track time and materials through shop floor data entry; scan prints and sketches into engineering files and maintain an up-to-date inventory.
