Case Study: Heesung Polymer achieves rapid ERP transformation and analytics-driven decision-making with Microsoft Dynamics 365

Blueprint completed for next-generation ERP, analytics playing a major role in ERP

Heesung Polymer, a Korean manufacturer of film sheet and coated fabrics, faced a fast-moving IT challenge after being acquired by Heesung Group: replace the limited Hanwha ERP and unify disparate legacy systems (including Heesung Chemical’s separate manufacturing, accounting and logistics systems) to enable “detail management” and faster decision‑making under a tight schedule. Heesung Polymer already ran mature Oracle-based processes, while Heesung Chemical needed to start from scratch, so the group required a solution that could adopt standard best-practice procedures with targeted adjustments.

Heesung Group chose Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 and engaged Microsoft partner Expo CNS to analyze requirements and implement the system quickly. By following standard processes and building core modules (purchasing, sales, production, accounting, fixed assets, managerial accounting) the teams completed implementations in short windows, unlocked transaction-level analytics and self-service reporting, and cut end-of-month closing from 8–9 days to 5 days (with a target of one day) while Heesung Polymer now completes closing in half a day.
