Just saw that Netsuite together with Rootstock Software are putting together a SAAS based ERP offering for Discrete Manufacturers.
This seems to be a big win for Netsuite as there are very few, if any, good Manufacturing Software packages available as a SAAS offering. It also fills the gap in Netsuite’s offerings. Currently they have supply chain and distribution management, but nothing for actual production.
It will be interesting to see how SAAS manufacturing will tie into MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems) and Demand Planning systems.
