• Mobility Solutions’ ROI For Industrial Businesses (Nov 04, 2022)

  In a world where mobile devices are multiplying 5 times faster than humans and the volume of traffic generated by smartphones is about twice that of PCs, tablets, and routers, mobility and data collection has become essential to businesses. In this context, research estimates that 23% of all digital data generated annually would be useful if tagged and analyzed, yet just 3% is tagged and 0.5% analyzed. ABIS provides the right solutions not only to tag and analyze this data, but to integrate it into your processes to maximize your performance at every level of the supply-chain.

  1.     Give Them the Tools to Success

  By implementing wireless connectivity solutions to their mobile workforce, companies have been able to get real-time visibility over work status and workflow management. Employees update work-in-progress information, get notified on-site about maintenance schedule, and manage recurring tasks. Communication between in-house and mobile workforce is ameliorated and the business runs more smoothly.

  2.     Streamline the Supply-Chain

  ABIS’ mobility solutions integrate wireless warehouse barcoding to develop new ways and new processes to track and manage inventory. Our client-partners implemented scanners to tag and locate every item from the reception platform to storage, production, assembly, warehouse, and shipping. The entire supply-chain is revisited for better tracking and more accurate inventory levels, generating unprecedented gains in turnover ratios and profitability.

  3.     Aiming for Smart Production Cycles

  One of ABIS’ client-partners used their mobility solutions to incorporate inventory tracking and predictive data analysis to streamline their production processes. Management teams know in real-time the quantity of product in stock, being processed, and ready to ship. They know the precise location of every item at any given time and can share it with the entire company. By unlocking the potential of predictive analysis, the purchase and procurement department is updated with stock levels in real-time and advised on the best course of action to follow based on purchase history and advanced behavior analysis. Since mobility solutions provide access to enhanced data, manufacturers have been able to develop financial models to get in front of cost trends, perform cost analysis, and facilitate predictive financial analysis.

  4.     Improve Customer Relationships

  Tablets and smartphones capacitate the sales force with the most accurate information on the fly to fit with customers’ needs. It gives them the right tools to capture info and redistribute it on the go. Sales representatives can now gather information about the customer on the way to a meeting, show him pertinent options during the meeting, and edit a quote on the way back. It fastens sales cycles, nurtures pipelines, centralizes CRM information, and at the end of the line helps you close deals faster and generate more revenue. From a customer perspective, mobile technology alleviates information gaps and stress related to project management. Manufacturers have been using mobility solutions at every step of the supply-chain to update project status and keep customers in the loop.

• Case Study – Dimensional Metals, Inc. (Nov 04, 2022)

  DMI needed a standard way of doing business that brought consistency to their daily operations. This would create a value-added service to their customers and help DMI grow to new heights.

  Industry: Manufacturing of architectural metal roof

  Location: Ohio, USA

  Key Challenges: Automate processes, interconnect departments, reconciliate information

  Benefits:

  • Productivity improvement in every department
  • Consistency in various aspect of daily operations, bringing added value to customer
  • Better decision-making thanks to qualified business information

  The Business Challenges

  Before they began searching for a software, everything that DMI had (order entry, AR, AP, GL, inventory, purchase orders, quoting, job tracking, production scheduling, etc.) operated as non-linked modules, and in order to compare information they needed to constantly use human intervention. Their production scheduling was a nightmare, and their production material usage wasn’t effectively impacting their inventory. DMI had tried adding an additional piece of software for production scheduling, but it became a glorified “job list” with little to no functionality whatsoever. Purchase orders were never being reconciled and there was ultimately very little accountability. With their company growing like it was, they were in trouble.

  Why Choose ABIS?

  DMI had contacted 20 or so ERP companies before talking to ABIS. They describe this period as “a very frustrating process because none of the other ERP providers understood our industry and production process” (David Dodds, MIS manager). The first thing that made ABIS stand out from the competition was when DMI spoke with the ABIS team. Dodds explains: “As I asked questions, the ABIS team was finishing my sentences and statements. I was impressed at how well they know our industry.”

  Solution

  ABIS was able to help DMI lay the groundwork to create a standard way of doing business along the value chain. From their Territory Managers to their Inside Sales Team, to Purchasing, Billing, Production, and Project Management, everyone uses the same tools, and each department’s information is integrated into a central system. This new consistency has created a value-added service to their customers. and it has helped them during their growth process.

  Results

  The biggest impact on DMI has been the tracking of job, production, and material, as David Dodds describes: “Before Adjutant we had to track down people, look for project files and paperwork to get the answers that we needed. Now all we have to do is login to get the information we need from production status, to inventory labels, and other vital information. Talk about a huge time saver and much better responsiveness to our customers.” According to him, ABIS also created a consistency company-wide from sales to production to billing that gave their customers a better feeling about DMI as a corporate entity.
