NGC® announced that Valley Manufacturing, a full-package manufacturer of high-quality sportswear and sleepwear for U.S. brands, has implemented NGC's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software to bring new efficiency and productivity to the company’s expanding business. Located in El Salvador, Valley Manufacturing has been managing its supply chain with NGC solutions since 2003.

•Inventory Control: NGC's software allows users to easily see how current inventory and work-in-process will satisfy open orders within specific delivery windows.
