关于客户

挑战
For many years, Creative Foam Corporation used an AS400-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to manage operations. Although the system managed basic functions, it was not efficient in integrating and automating manufacturing processes, which are crucial for long-term success and growth of the company. The management team looked for a system that could seamlessly integrate data across the enterprise; provide more visibility and transparency into operations; and be cost effective.
解决方案
After a thorough search, Creative Foam Corporation’s management decided to replace its existing legacy system with Plex Cloud ERP for manufacturers. Plex is a cloud ERP/ Software as a Service (SaaS)-based system built specifically for the manufacturing enterprise. In less than a year, Plex was implemented and went live in all seven facilities at the same time. The benefits of cloud ERP were immediately apparent. 'Plex is so user-friendly that even some of our first-time computer users are able to handle the system with ease,' said Martin. From top-level executives to shop floor managers and production workers, all employees have quick and easy access to critical information.

Case Study
Integral Plant Maintenance
Mercedes-Benz and his partner GAZ chose Siemens to be its maintenance partner at a new engine plant in Yaroslavl, Russia. The new plant offers a capacity to manufacture diesel engines for the Russian market, for locally produced Sprinter Classic. In addition to engines for the local market, the Yaroslavl plant will also produce spare parts. Mercedes-Benz Russia and his partner needed a service partner in order to ensure the operation of these lines in a maintenance partnership arrangement. The challenges included coordinating the entire maintenance management operation, in particular inspections, corrective and predictive maintenance activities, and the optimizing spare parts management. Siemens developed a customized maintenance solution that includes all electronic and mechanical maintenance activities (Integral Plant Maintenance).
