PlanetOne ERP: the right ERP for your Thai OEM business

In a fast-changing world of manufacturing, OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) businesses — makers of parts and products to order — face ever more complex challenges: from managing a complex supply chain, to tight production-cost control, to maintaining quality and delivering on time. When the manufacturing side runs into trouble, it has an enormous impact on the entire business chain.

PlanetOne ERP is an ERP system for factories developed by Thai people to answer the specific needs of OEM businesses in Thailand. With an understanding of the context and the problems your business faces, we are ready to be the partner that helps elevate your operations to the Smart Factory era for real.

What challenges do Thai OEMs face?

OEM businesses have distinctive characteristics that differ from making branded products, forcing them to face even more complex problems:

1. Scattered, disconnected data: OEM factories often use several separate pieces of software in each department — sales, production, purchasing, or accounting — so data is disconnected, lacks real-time updates, and leads to slow, mistaken decisions.

2. High production costs and trapped stock: Inefficient inventory management — of raw materials, MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) parts, or finished goods — causes shortages or overstock, trapping capital and pushing production costs up unnecessarily.

3. Complexity in managing production: OEM businesses must handle complex production recipes (BOM – Bill of Materials), material requirements planning (MRP), and shop floor control to ensure production goes to plan and to the required quality.

4. Liquidity problems: OEM businesses often have long payment cycles, creating financial-liquidity problems that obstruct business expansion and investment.

5. Quality control and traceability: Maintaining strict quality standards and tracing parts and production processes back is extremely important for OEM businesses to build customer confidence.

PlanetOne ERP: the right answer for your OEM business

PlanetOne ERP is designed specifically to solve these problems, with comprehensive and customisable functionality so your OEM business runs smoothly and at peak efficiency:

1. Centralised data and real-time visibility

PlanetOne ERP acts as a hub that links every department in your factory together under a single platform and database — whether purchasing, production, sales, accounting, or human resources. All data is updated in real time, helping reduce data duplication, reduce errors, and let executives access deep insights for accurate, faster decisions.

2. End-to-end production management

With a powerful production module, PlanetOne ERP lets you fully control the production process:

• Bill of Materials (BOM) management: Define and manage product structures, including the components and raw materials required, with precision.

• Material Requirements Planning (MRP): Calculate and plan the purchase of the raw materials and components needed, based on production demand and current stock status, helping reduce shortages or surpluses.

• Shop Floor Control: Track the status of production orders and each step of the production process in real time, letting you see the overall picture and manage bottlenecks efficiently.

• Automatic production-order generation: Reduce paperwork and errors by automatically generating production orders with complete information.

3. Control inventory and reduce cost

PlanetOne ERP lets you manage factory inventory precisely — from receipts, issues, and transfers, to counts. The system helps analyse stock data so you can plan purchasing appropriately, reduce unnecessary stock holding, and cut production costs sustainably.

4. Boost liquidity with e-Factoring (THUNASUP X PLANETONE ERP)

This is the standout that makes PlanetOne ERP different! We understand the working-capital problems of OEM businesses, so we partnered with Thanasup Co., Ltd. to offer the THUNASUP X PLANETONE ERP credit system. This e-Factoring platform lets you turn an electronic invoice (e-Invoice) or electronic tax invoice (e-Tax Invoice) into cash quickly, within 24 hours, with no collateral required — giving your business the liquidity to handle any situation.

5. Raise quality and traceability

PlanetOne ERP supports integration with production quality control (Quality Control Software) so you can track and inspect quality at every step, with a traceability function that gives you confidence in product standards and fully meets customer needs.

6. Flexibility and deployment options

PlanetOne ERP offers flexible packages — from Lite, to SME, to Enterprise — to support OEM businesses of every size. Whether you are an ERP for a small factory or a large organisation, we have a solution that scales with your growth. It also supports both Cloud ERP (annual rental) and On-Premise deployment, so you can choose according to your infrastructure and data-control needs.

Why is PlanetOne ERP superior for Thai OEMs?

• Built by Thais, understands Thai business: PlanetOne ERP was created by Thai people with a deep understanding of Thai regulations, language, and business customs, making the system easy to use and a genuine fit for the specific needs of businesses in this country.

• Accessible and transparent pricing: We offer transparent, worthwhile Lite and SME package pricing, which lowers the barrier of high initial investment cost for small and medium OEM businesses.

• Ready to step into the Smart Factory: PlanetOne ERP is a strong foundation for turning your factory into a smart factory in the future, with the ability to integrate with advanced technologies such as IoT, AI, and Mobile ERP for deeper data analysis, automation, and more accurate decisions.
