While often conflated with Engineer-to-Order (ETO), project manufacturing has distinct characteristics that set it apart—particularly in how engineering complexity plays out. ETO usually demands intensive front-end design and quoting, but project manufacturing may involve minimal engineering, as seen in construction or infrastructure projects. What remains essential, however, is strong support for project planning, costing, scheduling, and other contract-driven requirements. ERP systems built for high-volume discrete or process manufacturing often overlook these project-centric needs, lacking features like milestone billing, long lead-time planning, or pre-sales estimation. For project manufacturers, selecting an ERP system that aligns with these operational demands is critical to ensuring delivery precision and financial control.
In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 project manufacturing ERP systems in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these project manufacturing ERP systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each project manufacturing ERP system.
