Friedman Frontier ERP

Frontier ERP is built for manufacturers who design, build, modify, or assemble products to order. At its core is a parametric product configurator that encodes engineering logic such as dimensions, tolerances, material compatibility, and option interdependencies, so orders can be validated as buildable before entry. Additional modules named on the vendor's site include Sales Order Management, DataBroker for electronic ordering, eQuote Dealer for dealer quoting, eWebServices for web integration, MES/shop floor, financial systems, and supply chain management.

The vendor's site states Frontier is designed for mid-size to large manufacturers of configurable or custom products, including cabinet, door, window and glass, furniture, building products, promotional products, industrial equipment, and automotive and aerospace producers. It describes Frontier as available as a cloud ERP hosted on the IBM i platform, with an on-premise deployment option also available.

The vendor's site does not state specific pricing, directing prospects to contact sales or request a demo instead. It does not describe how the named modules such as DataBroker, eQuote Dealer, or eWebServices integrate with third-party systems in technical detail, and it does not specify implementation cost or timelines beyond general statements about the evaluation process.
