System 3R International increases efficiency with IBS

IBS has signed a contract with System 3R International for installation of IBS software in a total of ten countries in Europe, North America and Asia. With the new software solution, System 3R will increase efficiency in its order process, warehouse management and distribution.

The contract with System 3R International AB includes upgrading the IBS software in the head office and production company in Sweden, as well as the sales companies in the Nordic countries. Thereafter, new installations will take place initially in seven sales companies around the world in Asia, the US and Europe. The total number of users will then amount to about 200 persons. The total solution from IBS includes software, consulting services, hardware and financing. System 3R International is a global group of companies focused on research, development, production and sales of methods, handling equipment, software and tool systems for the manufacturing industry. Its products give users the edge in the pursuit of increased productivity. The Group has production units and/or own sales companies in eleven countries, regional sales offices in an additional six countries and distributors in other major industrialized countries. With the new solution, which includes modules for manufacturing, distribution, financial control, warehouse management and business analysis, System 3R International will simplify and increase the efficiency of its order process, warehouse management and distribution. In addition, IT costs will be reduced while reporting and financial coordination within the Group will be improved. “We will implement the total solution from IBS in all units within the Group and anticipate a positive return on the investment within a short period. With the new business support system in place, we will be able to improve key processes, thus becoming even more competitive,” says Håkan Näsström, CEO of System 3R International. “The expanded partnership with System 3R International is a feather in our cap, since their business concept is similar to our own, meaning to help customers develop efficient processes. We are currently one of the few suppliers that can offer international installations with our own personnel in 20 countries, which is increasingly important for international corporations,” says Lars Falke, Vice President of IBS Sweden.
