A Infor Case Study
Tianjin New Wei San Industrial Co., Ltd., a Tianjin-based foundry and machine shop that manufactures automotive and industrial engine components and employs about 6,000 people, faced limited visibility into inventory and production, fragmented business processes, excessive inventory, and weak cost-analysis capabilities. As an automotive-tier supplier, New Wei San needed better real-time data to support purchasing, production and financial decisions.
New Wei San implemented an ERP solution—Infor LN with Infor Warehouse Mobility—and went live within four months. The system delivered real-time enterprise-wide visibility, cut inventory process steps by 50%, automated purchasing and streamlined the end-to-end sales and finance processes. As a result the company balances stock levels more effectively, obtains immediate shift-by-shift scrap updates (instead of 2–3 days), produces timely month-end closings, and markedly improves data accuracy, productivity and cost control.
