Unfortunately, B&L is moving their focus from the iSeries to a PC
package that they have developed. From what I understand from talking to
one of their customer reps, there will likely be no more major
enhancements to the iSeries software.

Rick,

If they are a foundry, mold, or casting based manufacture I
have worked with B & L Information systems http://www.blinfo.com

They have a good industry specific system that they are
continuing to grow.

I'm familiar with:

Does anyone have good experience with CMS or any other 

AS400 packages.
