The QAD Enterprise Platform serves as the foundational infrastructure for QAD's suite of enterprise applications, including QAD Adaptive ERP. It provides a consistent model for extending, modifying, and adding capabilities, data, and processes, thereby simplifying upgrades and the adoption of advanced technologies. The platform comprises two main components: Foundation Services and the Core Model. Foundation Services offer infrastructure management, platform management, and application development tools that ensure reliability, security, and ease of use. The Core Model delivers shareable business components related to master data, facilitating seamless information sharing across the platform and reducing the need for data integrations. By leveraging these components, manufacturers can digitize their operations, production, customer experiences, and supply chains, enabling rapid adaptation to changing business environments. Features:

• Personalization: Allows users to modify screens and attributes using a graphical interface, tailoring the user experience to individual roles and preferences.
• Embedded Self-Service Analytics: Provides real-time, role-based insights through integrated analytics, enabling users to create and modify analytic models, reports, KPIs, and dashboards.
• Extensibility: Facilitates the addition or modification of functions and data without rewriting entire applications, preserving the ability to upgrade seamlessly.
