Product Costing

Product cost is only as good as the data behind it. Bills of material, routings, work center rates, material prices: each one changes on its own schedule, and a cost model is only accurate the moment all of them are current at the same time.

ImpactECS centralizes that data in one place. Standard cost, actual cost, target cost, simulated cost: multiple versions, built from the same underlying structure, so a change in one material price or one routing step flows through every version instead of requiring a separate rebuild.

That foundation is what makes everything else possible: allocations that assign cost accurately, simulations that test a change before it happens, and forecasts that hold up because the inputs are real.
