Aventa, like all Redthorn products, is built around Oracle - which offers speed, reliability, security and a user-friendly environment. Oracle is an industry standard, leading edge application development tool. Aventa is modular - Redthorn customers choose only the modules they need. The standard system includes modules applicable to all manufacturing companies including (you can click links for example report / screens):-

• Capacity Planning
• Sales-Order Processing
• Stock Control
• Purchase-Order Processing
• Labour Processing
• Financial Analysis

We have optional modules to suit individual company requirements such as:-

• Data Capture
• Vendor Managed Inventory
• Scheduling
• Direct Sales
• Document Control

All these available additional modules help build a system that maps to your business process.

Other modules include:-

RedALERT Messenger - internal emailing sent directly from your system, giving invaluable management information like yesterday's delivery failures, what's du for calibration, and absent personnel.  It will reveal where companies are over-resourced and provide a work-to-list to help make better-informed planning decisions.

The Inspection, Calibration and Tooling modules monitor the location of all tooling and inspection equipment on or off site.

The Aventa system includes 250 standard reports.  The majority of these have been added to the system through a joint development process with Redthorn users.

A real strength of the Aventa system is the ability to create user defined reports.  These reports are tailored to individual users' needs and can be generated via the following methods:-

• Oracle Discoverer
• Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access
• Crystal Reports

As Aventa and Discoverer are both built on Oracle technology there is a seamless link between the two.  This eliminates the need for third party reporting tools.

For engineering sub-contractors, Aventa is the ideal tool for managing the entire business process.  Key areas highlighted by Aventa include:-

• Inefficient manufacture
• Material wastage
• Unrealistic planning
• Delivery performance
• Bottlenecks in scheduling

Aventa is everything the industry has been looking for to increase margins, save time and increase profits. Redthorn customers, who supply to industries such as aerospace, automotive, excavation, rail and electrical divisions, depend on Aventa for managing both the internal business process and the logistics of the supply chain.

Finally, Redthorn is an SME. That's why the Aventa price is extremely competitive and specifically aimed at your business.
