Thousands of Variations. One Wrong Quote Costs the Job.
Furniture is a high-mix business with thin margins and customers who want it fast. These are the gaps that quietly turn a winnable order into a loss or a missed deadline.
Endless Product Permutations
Colours, fabrics, finishes, dimensions, and hardware multiply into thousands of variations, and managing every combination by hand is a recipe for errors.
Quotes That Take Too Long
Building a custom quote and its bill of materials by hand takes days, and a slow or wrong quote loses the order or eats the margin.
Material Costs That Keep Moving
Timber, fabric, foam, and hardware prices shift constantly, and a price you quoted weeks ago may no longer cover what the materials cost today.
Lead Times Under Pressure
Retailers and customers want shorter delivery times, and without tight planning a promised date slips and the relationship slips with it.
Over-Buying on Bad Forecasts
Inaccurate forecasting leaves you sitting on excess timber and components, tying up cash and warehouse space you could use elsewhere.
Design Changes That Slip Through
When a customer tweaks a spec or you substitute a material, the change has to reach the floor and the costing, or you build and price the wrong thing.
Every Pressure on the Workshop Floor Has a Module Built to Ease It.
SYSPRO is purpose-built for furniture manufacturers, not adapted from generic business software. Each capability maps to a pressure that costs you an order, your margin, or a delivery date. Mareba switches on the ones your operation actually needs.
Your SYSPRO Can Also Include
Product Configurator
Builds and prices complex furniture variations with rules-based configuration, so thousands of colour, fabric, finish, and dimension combinations are handled in seconds without configuration errors.
Quotations and Estimates
Generates accurate quotes from real material and operation costs, cutting quote turnaround from days to minutes so you respond fast and win more orders.
Bill of Materials
Auto-generates accurate multi-level bills for every custom order and adapts them to design changes and material substitutions, so the floor builds exactly what was sold.
Inventory Forecasting
Improves forecast accuracy and balances material requirements against real demand, so you stop over-buying timber and components and free up the cash they tie up.
Manufacturing Operations Management
Schedules and sequences jobs on the floor and responds to daily changes in priorities, so you quote realistic lead times and hit the shorter delivery dates customers expect.
Work in Progress
Captures labour and material cost against each order as it runs, with real-time visibility into material costs and supplier performance, so you protect margin as prices move.
A Global ERP, Configured for How You Run and Where You Run It.
SYSPRO gives you the capability. Mareba makes it fit your processes, your statutory rules, and your market, then stays on long after go-live. That is the difference between software you own and software that actually works for you.
Tax and Statutory Compliance, Handled
We configure SYSPRO to meet KRA, VAT, and eTIMS requirements as part of every Kenyan implementation, and the local statutory rules of each market you operate in. Compliance is built into the setup, not bolted on after.
Multi-Currency and Multi-Company, Across Borders
Sourcing materials globally and selling across borders? We set up SYSPRO multi-currency and multi-company structures to match how your group actually procures, builds, and bills across the region.
Certified Consultants Who Know the Workshop
Our SYSPRO trained consultants have run real manufacturing rollouts, so the configuration reflects how a high-mix furniture maker actually configures and builds to order, not how a manual says it should.
Support in Your Timezone, on Your Continent
When a question comes up mid-shift, you reach a local team that works the same hours you do. No overnight tickets, no waiting on a vendor in another hemisphere.
25 Years. 20+ Implementations. 6+ Countries.
We have configured SYSPRO for furniture manufacturers in markets like yours before. Let us show you what that looks like for your operation.
The Questions Furniture Makers Ask Most.
Straight answers on cost, timelines, compliance, and what working with Mareba actually looks like.
It depends on how many sites, users, and processes are involved, but you never figure that out alone. Mareba scopes the project up front, phases the rollout so the workshop keeps producing, and draws on more than 20 implementations to keep it on track. Many furniture manufacturers go live within months, not years.
SYSPRO gives you the financial and tax structure. Making it meet KRA, VAT, and eTIMS requirements is part of what Mareba configures during your implementation, along with the statutory rules of any other market you operate in. Compliance is built into the setup, not added as an afterthought.
Yes. SYSPRO's Product Configurator builds and prices complex furniture variations with rules-based configuration, so colour, fabric, finish, and dimension combinations are handled in seconds without errors. It even generates the bill of materials for each custom order automatically. Mareba sets the configuration rules up around your catalogue.
Much faster than by hand. SYSPRO's estimating and configuration tools build accurate quotes from real material and operation costs, cutting quote turnaround from days to minutes. That means you respond while the customer is still deciding and improve your win rate. Mareba tunes the estimating to your products.
SYSPRO gives you real-time visibility into material costs and supplier performance, so when timber, fabric, or hardware prices move you can respond in your quoting and procurement before the margin erodes. Mareba configures this to the materials and suppliers you actually use.
Yes. SYSPRO's Manufacturing Operations Management schedules and sequences jobs on the floor and responds to daily changes in priorities, so you can quote realistic lead times and hit them. Better forecasting also reduces over-buying that ties up cash. Mareba configures the scheduling to how your workshop runs.
You are not handed a login and left to it. Mareba trains your team, then stays on with support from people in your timezone and on your continent. When a question comes up mid-shift, you reach someone who works the same hours you do.
