Overview

The Emak Group is the world’s leading player in the development, production and distribution of machinery, components and accessories for the gardening, agriculture, forestry and industry sectors.

When, around 2012, the market changes, demanding diversification of articles and small quantities, Emak decides to ask for support first to Kaizen Institute to define a reorganization of the supply chain and then to IUNGO for the management of processes.

The objectives are:

  • Acquire more production flexibility
  • Achieve higher productivity

Challenge

  • To reorganize the Supply Chain with a view to Lean
  • To increase production flexibility to ensure very short service times
  • Greater fluidity in the document process with suppliers

Solution

IUNGO Procurement, with the following modules:

  • Scheduling agreement
  • Purchase order
  • Declaration of origin of goods
  • RfX
  • Reporting (Vendor Rating)
  • ASN
  • Barcode Labels

Integration with AS400

Results

  • 252 integrated suppliers (equal to 90% of the purchase budget for the year)
  • 81% service level
  • Reduction of repetitive activities in the Purchasing and Production Department
  • Multicompany Implementation
  • Eliminate manual errors, increase internal efficiency by automating passive cycle management tasks
