Answer
What drives manufacturing ERP pricing?
Manufacturing ERP cost usually combines subscription (plan tier, plants, users, modules) with implementation (discovery, configuration, migration, training, hypercare) and optional extras (integrations, extra training, custom workflows). Taxes follow the commercial agreement. FOS publishes indicative packaging on /pricing; final terms are confirmed in a scoped proposal.
Cost components to put in every RFP
Ask vendors to split subscription, implementation, and optional work. Note whether GST-ready sales invoicing is included without equating it to a full accounts suite. On FOS, Advanced Accounts & BI sits in Enterprise packaging while Starter focuses on CRM, sales and inventory.
- Plants and warehouses in year one
- Named modules at go-live vs phase two
- User bands for shop floor vs office roles
- Integrations (weighbridge, labels, finance systems) if required
How to compare proposals fairly
Normalize scope: same modules, same plants, same migration depth. Treat “go live in weeks” as marketing unless the proposal states assumptions. Prefer clear ownership of training over vague “unlimited enablement” language.
Example: Two quotes look far apart until both include Purchase and Quality. After aligning modules, the gap is mostly implementation days and data cleanup — not the software sticker.
