Matt Mong, VP of Market Innovation and Category Design at Adeaca, the leader in Project Business Automation (PBA), an all-in-one business management cloud solution for project-based companies, discussed the increase of project-based manufacturing in the recent issue of Quality Digest.

According to Mong, repetitive high-volume manufacturing has been offshored to China, Vietnam, and other locations; the companies that are left in the United States serve a higher purpose that began with mass customization for consumers. Project based products unique to each customer have grown significantly now that the technology is able to support it. Mass customization has transitioned to the B2B customer.
Mong shared, “The mass and repetitive manufacturers use ERP software which builds all the manufacturing tools for high-volume manufacturers; they know their supply chain procurement and production schedules. For a project-based manufacturer, projects are the core of what they do and that tends to not be included in their business system that sits outside of the ERP system. When they try and integrate all that back into the ERP and start to manufacture things a big mess ensues. The results typically drive the uses of multiple systems, multiple applications, and tools to do the things unable to accomplish with an ERP system.”
Mong recently spoke with Dirk Dusharme host of Quality Digest Live in a recent interview to discuss project-based manufacturing and processes and the unique set of circumstances not usually experienced by make-to-stock manufacturers.
About Adeaca:
Adeaca is the first company to introduce Project Business Automation (PBA), a new category of software systems built for companies who consider projects an important part of their business. Recognized by Forrester, PBA is revolutionizing how projects get done by providing the capabilities to manage and govern project processes from beginning to end.
The PBA Quick Guide provides a high-level overview on how PBA focuses on the business side of projects and how to apply new rules to improve key business drivers.
Adeaca knows the challenges of managing and delivering projects, whether external or internal, and the solutions to solve them. The Adeaca team consists of project experts who understand that many companies cannot deliver better outcomes due to three primary conditions:
- No standardized project governance
- No timely information to detect problems early enough to rectify them
- Inefficient collaboration among project team members and stakeholders
Adeaca recognizes that these problems stem from a lack of process and information integration, meaning systems run separately in silos, data are not shared, and processes are not synchronized. Without real-time data any insights are outdated, and manually compiled data are prone to error and bias. As a result, stakeholders cannot access information easily in a timely fashion, leading to poor collaboration and project outcomes.
PBA is the only solution available that puts projects front and center, integrating the business and operational aspects of projects together.
