Regardless of industrial sector or vertical integration, manufacturing companies with mechanical production face a consistent challenge: They must ensure that their logistics processes are sustainable and economical while being well-integrated with all SAP components.
These processes have to be flexible and scalable due to statutory regulations as well as a variety of national and international trading conditions.
Integral features that guarantee integrated manufacturing logistics include planning for material requirements, capacity, production, and program planning as well as serial production and Kanban manufacturing.
We rely on our fundamental and profound cross module and interbranch knowledge to meet and solve the challenges you face.
With our extensive project experience, we offer you applied solutions using the SAP Standard for the following topics:
- Production Planning (PP)
- Variant Configuration (VC)
- Repetitive Manufacturing (PP-REM)
Furthermore, we will support you in implementing your specific requirements to achieve the SAP standard. Problem solving is at the forefront of what we do.
