What Is CAPM (Computer-Aided Production Management)?
Computer-Aided Production Management (GPAO) is a strategic tool for industrial companies. It aims to optimize and automate processes related to production planning, monitoring, and control. With the evolution of technology, GPAO has become an indispensable component of modern ERP systems such as GestiumERP.
