Direct-to-consumer manufacturers are expected to grow almost 20% per year, for the next five years, doubling the gross revenue in just a short five-year time span.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Real-time inventory updates are critical in the D2C manufacturing environment. Failure to have accurate data ensures disappointed customers who will go elsewhere. This 24\/7 information is best accomplished with an automated booking engine.&nbsp; With a unique auto-booking engine, inventory is tracked in real-time, automatically allocating available material and finished products to fulfill orders; if the order priority changes, inventory will be redistributed to fit the new production schedule.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The small manufacturers report an average 80% productivity boost because taking care of the manufacturing schedule keeps stock under control. The ability to properly return the focus to growing the business is the direct result.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Katana Cloud-Based Manufacturing Software:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/katanamrp.com\/\">Katana<\/a> is a cloud-based software designed specifically for small and mid-sized manufacturers.
