Vantage and Lean Manufacturing

Hi all,

I previously asked about Lean Manufacturing and Vantage, and didn't
really hear anything that satisfied those in my company that were asking
the questions. I have now been asked to pose the following inquiry to
the group:

We are interested in communicating with any Vantage users that have
implemented cellular manufacturing ("Lean Manufacturing") into part or
all of their shop operation. We have not been able to receive any
information from Epicor, so would like to check with any users that have
done this.

Please feel free to contact me either on or off list.

Thank you,

Looking for some input. My CFO is looking at Lean Manufacturing and how
it fits in with Vantage. He has downloaded some information from the
website, however it does not seem to him that the information addresses
Lean from an accounting viewpoint. He wonders if there are any
companies out there that have implemented lean manufacturing and how
costs flow through Vantage.
Anyone have any input or somewhere I can direct him for some further
information on the workings of Vantage and Lean from an accounting view?
We are currently on ver. 5.0 but trying to spend some time looking over
V8.

Thanks in Advance,
