BPCS is an acronym for Business Planning and Control System, pronounced as "Bee

companies.

BPCS is an acronym for Business Planning and Control System, pronounced as "Bee
picks." BPCS was developed by System Software Associates (SSA), which later
became SSA Global Technologies (which was then acquired by Infor Global
Solutions), and is used to control the operations of manufacturing companies. BPCS
is in the category of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software.

BPCS includes MRP logic to manufacturing operations, provided there are high
standards of data validity such as engineering specifications and inventory
accuracy. It runs on several systems, with the IBM System i (also known as IBM
AS/400 or IBM eServer iSeries), being most popular. It is written in As/Set, RPG, SQL
and other IBM languages somewhat unique to the System i.

Many of the BPCS applications are somewhat stand-alone, in that companies can
choose to implement only the financial applications for example, and none of the
manufacturing. The competitive strength of BPCS over other ERP vendor
competition, however, is in its manufacturing and planning applications.
