Case Study: Omron Europe achieves EU customs compliance and cost savings with Descartes

Omron Leading Manufacturer in Industrial Automation Solutions Industry

Omron Europe BV Industrial Automation, a leading manufacturer of industrial automation solutions, needed to integrate supply chain processes, stay compliant with evolving EU electronic customs requirements, and support AEO certification while reducing manual work and costs. Omron chose Descartes and its Porthus.net Customs solution, including a Customs Warehouse Management module, to replace an in-house system that could no longer keep pace with changing customs rules.

Descartes implemented a hosted, managed global trade management solution that provided one interface for EU customs processes, back-end integration, 360° monitoring, and predictable on-demand costs. The result was immediate compliance, improved cash flow and duty deferral, reduced operational costs and errors, and a scalable platform that supported Omron’s European operations and future expansion.
