Warehouse Management System (scanning)	$800/mthAn option to add to your 10 user Core System. This price is the price for the 3 year lease of the WMS, then the price drops to $325/month for continued license and maintenance.	Our Warehouse Management System is optional functionality that allows you to receiving, picking to production, do transfers, counting and shipping to customers all with scanning code 128 barcodes. Minotaur can print unit or skid barcodes if arriving goods do not have them already and for your interim and finished goods. You'll need either tablets with scanners (either wired or wireless bluetooth) or handheld computers for use with Minotaur's WMS. Most Minotaur customers are choosing Android ready devices.
Plant Floor Production Recognition	$225/mthAn option to add to a 10 User Core System for the first 3 years, then the price drops to $75/month for continued license and maintenance.	The core system allows for the bulk printing of labels when production is planned or entered after it is done. Minotaur's Plant Floor Production Recognition option allows for partial production to be recorded as having been made with the option to put the product into skids and print a skid label for reduced scanning. This module can either be tied to weigh scales producing a unique label for each item based on its weight or for standard weight items not tied to scales. It allows you to produce against a sales order or to inventory printing interim and/or finished goods barcode labels while also recording that production as being made. Note that network label printers are required and the computer(s) or tablet(s) used must connect to your server either through a wired connection or through wireless connectivity.
Implementation Support and Training	$150/hourwhen purchased in 20 hour prepaid blocks. This equates to $800/month for 3 years if spreading out with a lease.	140 hours is a realistic number of hours ed for implementing a 10 user Core ERP system. Add approximately 60 more hours if you are also buying the handheld warehouse management system (WMS) option and another 10 hours if purchasing Plant Floor Production Recognition via touch screens. For more than 10 users I would add 20 hours for each additional 5 users. Hourly services help you successfully implement the Minotaur Business System are used for process consulting, configuring the system to your needs, setting up forms and label templates to your specifications, training your staff in the areas of the system they will be using, providing phone support, and assisting with loading starting data from an old system. There is no mandatory ongoing hourly services beyond the implementation period, but some Minotaur customers will want us to train new employees in the system.
