KeyMan is a mature and feature-rich MRP system that was developed by Carolina Cipher to meet the needs of small to medium-size manufacturers. Now in release 8, it is fully internet/E-Commerce and client/server enabled. KeyMan is an extension of the SouthWare Financial Series, providing the additional functionality needed by manufacturing firms. Like SouthWare, KeyMan runs in a Windows, Linux, Unix, or Network environment.
KeyMan was designed to integrate seamlessly with the Financial modules of the SouthWare Excellence Series. Together, KeyMan and SouthWare have helped many companies overcome the challenges of increased competition, rapid growth, and new products and markets.
As the developer of KeyMan and a reseller for SouthWare, Carolina Cipher offers a comprehensive package which includes the training and other services needed during the initial implementation, as well as the on-going support and assistance needed to maximize success and return on investment.
Special features of KeyMan make it ideally suited for companies in a make-to-order or configure-to-order environment. This is especially true for industries like furniture manufacture, window/door manufacture, plastics, and industrial equipment manufacture.
In addition to the core functionality needed for day-to-day business transactions, KeyMan and SouthWare offer a suite of reporting capabilities and interfaces to many of the world's most widely used toolsets
