Key Requirement
The DAIDO METAL holding group began expanding its activities in Europe in 2004. This effort resulted in a new production plant completed in 2005 in the Czech Republic in the Brno industrial zone.
Since then, production at the Daido site in Brno has continued to grow and the company has significantly expanded its production facilities there in recent years. The expanding manufacturing company required a state-of-the-art enterprise information system.
Solutions
DAIDO METAL CZECH has been using the Infor LN enterprise information system to manage its business processes since 2005. The core functions of the system were implemented at the same time as the construction of the Brno plant, which enabled the immediate start of operations along with the start of production.
The Infor LN solution was later deployed by Seyfor, in cooperation with the Japanese company HITACHI, also at other DAIDO METAL Group plants in the UK and Germany. The Infor LN system was selected for its readiness for global deployment, including support for multiple languages, and the existence of regional Infor offices or partners in all countries where DAIDO METAL Group offices are located.
The sophisticated support for manufacturing operations was also important. It was also necessary for the system to support specific functions needed by companies that are suppliers to the automotive industry (batch, recall, EDI, barcode, etc.).
Result
By deploying Infor LN, DAIDO METAL CZECH has significantly streamlined its management processes and also introduced digital communication with business partners and DAIDO METAL's European headquarters through a customized solution implemented by Seyfor consultants.
Seyfor's support and monitoring of the system operation ensures that Infor LN is used with minimum unexpected downtime and thus also provides protection against production outages and risks of financial losses. The unification of the information systems at DAIDO's European plants has simplified communication between them.
The provision of remote monitoring and system management support by Seyfor simplifies maintenance and helps prevent potential emergency conditions from occurring, avoiding downtime or production shutdowns.
