System Donated by Tigernix: Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)

Centres of Innovation have been set up in various polytechnics by the Singapore Government as part of an initiative to make practical technological support available to local enterprises.

Tigernix values and encourages efforts towards the education and spread of technologies within institutions in Singapore. To support this cause, Tigernix donated an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to the Centre of Innovation to help them in their management processes. Tigernix’s ERP solution allows institutions to integrate and automate their entire business process.

TigernixERP is a flexible, secure, and comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution from Tigernix. It is completely web-based, making it an easy platform to combine all business processes. TigernixERP has comprehensive reporting and management options that provide data on order forms, invoices, balance of payments, and ledgers.

Apart from COI, Tigernix has successfully implemented an ERP solution at the Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech).
