Aritmos is a Sage Platinum Partner based in Lleida, with more than 40 years of experience implementing ERP systems in industrial companies. As a certified Sage X3 partner —Sage’s ERP designed specifically for mid-sized and large manufacturing, distribution and services companies— Aritmos combines product expertise with in-depth knowledge of the industrial fabric: SMEs that manufacture and need to control their production costs, plan their materials and comply with regulations without losing agility.
Yes. Sage X3 handles both manufacturing models. Discrete manufacturing: bills of materials, routings with operations and work centres, assembly orders. Process manufacturing: formulas with variable coefficients, blends, by-products and co-products. Many companies combine both models (for example, a food company that blends and then packs), and Sage X3 supports this natively.
Sage X3’s MRP automatically calculates material and capacity requirements based on: confirmed orders, demand forecasts, available stock, supplier lead times and manufacturing times. It generates purchase and production order proposals that the planner can confirm, modify or regroup. It supports multiple warehouses, multiple production sites and multi-level manufacturing.
Yes. Sage X3 calculates the actual cost of each production order by adding up: materials consumed (at weighted average, standard or last price), labour charged (from time bookings on terminals), machine time and overheads. The system compares actual cost with theoretical cost (calculated from the BOM and routing) and generates variance reports by order, product and work centre.
Yes. Sage X3 manages subcontracted operations within the routing: shipment of materials to the subcontractor, receipt of the processed product, incoming quality control and posting of the subcontracting cost. Everything is traced within the production order.
Sage 200 covers basic manufacturing needs for small companies. Sage X3 is designed for mid-sized and large companies with complex manufacturing operations: multi-level BOM, advanced MRP, capacity planning, process manufacturing, multi-site, multi-country, subcontracting of operations. If your factory has more than 50 employees, manages multiple work centres or needs batch traceability, Sage X3 is the right choice.
Aritmos has been implementing ERP in industrial environments for more than 40 years. Most of its implementations are in companies that manufacture: agri-food, ceramics, textiles, industrial. This gives it practical knowledge of a factory’s real problems (planning around the unexpected, cost control with tight margins, regulatory traceability) that a generalist partner lacks. In addition, for specific sectors such as agri-food or ceramics, Aritmos has its own verticals that add native functionality.
It depends on the size of the company, the number of users, the modules required (manufacturing, quality, warehouse, finance, CRM), the complexity of the BOM and the number of work centres. Aritmos offers a free preliminary analysis to scope the project. Get in touch for a demo with real data from your type of manufacturing.
