Automotive component manufacturer PLAST-MET Automotive Systems gains improved insight and control with IFS Applications
Polish car part manufacturer increases efficiency with IFS Applications
IFS, the global enterprise applications company, announces that PLAST-MET Automotive Systems, the Polish company specializing in the production of components for the automotive sector, has implemented IFS Applications™ to streamline its processes in the areas of manufacturing, supply chain management, maintenance, finance, HR and payroll.
PLAST-MET Automotive Systems sought a modern ERP solution that could ensure effective support of its business operations. After a comprehensive evaluation process of ERP solutions available on the market, PLAST-MET Automotive Systems selected IFS Applications to replace a proprietary system which was no longer able to meet its business requirements. The IFS solution delivers improved operational efficiency and supports production and logistics processes.
Apart from IFS’s customer-centric approach and its depth of expertise in the automotive industry, the main factors that influenced PLAST-MET Automotive Systems’ final selection of IFS Applications included comprehensive functionality, which meets the requirements of enterprises in the automotive industry, and flexibility which guarantees future development of the solution with the growing enterprise needs.
IFS Applications supports all areas of PLAST-MET Automotive Systems 's activities, from manufacturing (including planning, execution, settlements and quality control), through supply chain management (sales, warehouse, logistics, and procurement), maintenance and service, to finance, human resources and payroll. Over 230 users currently use the solution.
"Thanks to the implementation of IFS Applications, we have gained access to comprehensive, up-to-date information about our operations," said Przemysław Drożyński, Chief Commercial Officer at PLAST-MET Automotive Systems Sp. o.o. "First of all, we have more control over the manufacturing process and an ability to analyze production processes and related costs on an ongoing basis. Another major benefit is real-time process reporting. The system allows us to make the right decisions and to plan and create forecasts based on the available data."
Marcin Taranek, IFS’s President for Eastern Europe and Central Asia added, ”Automotive is one of our main focus industries. IFS Applications is designed to address the specific needs of automotive companies, and system flexibility allows for expanding functionality with the increasing requirements of our customers. We are happy that our solution effectively supports the dynamic development of PLAST-MET Automotive Systems, ensuring their increased efficiency and competitiveness in the automotive market."
