OT: Shop mgt software

I need to ask for some help.
 
Situation:  I will be retiring on May 1, 2014.  Here at work where I am the Controller and IT Mgr. We use an MRP software.  But like most MRP / ERP softwares they are very poor in plant mgt and tracking.  So 10 years ago I wrote a full plant mgt and Job costing software in filePro that talks to our MRP software.  This plant mgt includes Bills of Material, Routings, Production times and schedules and full machine loading and tracking.  Note we are not a job shop rather we have our own propritary products with approx 16,000 skus (approx 9000 mfg).
 
Problem: When I retire I do not want to have to maintain the filePro programs and no one else here knows filePro.  Actually I will be selling my own planty mgt software written in filePro but Web based after I retire.
 
So what I am asking...  do any of you know of a good Windows based plant mgt software?  I need to find this software and have it installed by 2nd qtr next year.  This will allow time for testing, interaction with our other software products, training users and writing of SOPs.
 
Thank you in advance,
Rick Hane
