Introducing a new ERP Solution for Logistics, Procurement and Sales
Case study
Specialist wholesaler for the municipal supply and waste management, with 11 locations across Germany.
Industry: Technical wholesale for water, gas and waste products.
Goal: Introduction of the Iptor multiflex ERP software including a large number of additional modules for all company fields and areas.
Keywords: ERP for wholesale, inventory management
Our software:
- MX ERP, MX Mobile, MX DMS, MX CRM.
Benefits:
- Replacement of no more updateable pre-system.
- Standardization of the processes with the partner company.
- Optimization of business processes.
Initial situation: Warehouse management required manual Data entry.
As a technical wholesaler, Tröger & Entenmann offers a wide range of water, gas and waste water products. The group of companies covers everything around supply and disposal as well as systems carrying drinking water. With eleven branches, the entire southern and eastern German economic area is covered. Depending on the digitization progress and the size of the respective warehouse, warehouse management was previously carried out by printing out receipts in the warehouse, ticking off the receipt items and then entering them into an ERP system. However, the existing ERP system could no longer be supplied with updates due to various customer-specific changes and should therefore be replaced.
The Implementation of Iptor Multiflex ERP
As the processes in the partner company EBERO AG are similar, the existing database served as the starting point for processes, procedures and basic settings. In close coordination with the project team of the T&E Group, deviating requirements were to be developed and then reprogrammed in the software. In a large number of workshops in Heidelberg and Aschaffenburg the functioning and the possible uses of the software at Ebero AG was first presented to a selected field of participants from the T&E Group. Based on this, the different possible applications and requirements of the T&E Group were then developed and adapted.
Iptor multiflex not only acted as a software manufacturer, but also stood by the T&E Group as an experienced consultant. Iptor multiflex always checked the customer’s change requests against the background of the programming and maintenance effort, then discussed the results together and worked out a solution that was optimal for both sides. The go-live was successfully carried out in all branches at the same time – during the company vacation in December 2020.
Now working with real-time data is possible.
The T&E Group can now access a uniform ERP system that provides real-time data. As a result of digitalization and automation, processes are now uniformly mapped in the system across the group and practically also lived more consistently. As a result, the sources of error have been reduced. By working together with EBERO AG, cost synergies can be leveraged and data quality improved.
