Understanding the 5M Concept
Every business revolves around five core resources — known as the 5Ms: Man, Machine, Material, Method, and Money. Managing them effectively is the foundation of operational excellence.
1. Man — People Power
Employees are your most valuable assets. VijayERP’s HR and Payroll modules help you track attendance, process salaries, manage shifts, and measure performance in real-time.
2. Machine — Keep Machines Healthy
Through the Maintenance module, VijayERP ensures preventive maintenance schedules, tracks machine downtime, and logs repair history to maximize uptime and productivity.
3. Material — Inventory in Control
VijayERP’s Inventory module gives you full visibility of stock, purchase orders, job work materials, and reordering points. Say goodbye to stockouts and excess inventory.
4. Method — Streamlined Processes
Each process, from quotation to dispatch, can be standardized in VijayERP. Automation eliminates manual errors and gives every department clear responsibilities and timelines.
5. Money — Financial Clarity
Accounting and finance modules provide real-time balance sheets, GST reports, and payment tracking. You’ll always know where your money is going and how to optimize cash flow.
One of our early clients, a sheet metal manufacturer, struggled with production delays and cost overruns. After implementing VijayERP, they tracked every M — from manpower to money — and reduced waste by 30% in just three months.
