Infor CloudSuite ERP

We are using M3, Ming.le, and Document Management. It serves as our main ERP, and we use it for everything. Almost all things go through M3 at ESAB Europe. Orders, bookkeeping, claims (well, in this term, halfly), accounts payable and receivable & cash collection all happen through this. Plus, in Europe, we need to connect everything - or customise them to be able to get connected - to this.

• we have a much better inventory tracking therefore able to meet the requirements coming fmor o2c
• order handling is smoother since we have almost visual control over it
• the different GAAPs can be included - like US. and locals (great for statutory reporting)

I also use menus related to General Ledger and accounts set up.

We use Cloudsuite ERP for warehouse and distribution, production planning and inventory, supply chain and logistics, sales and financials. specifically to ensure full traceability from raw materials to final product, improve production planning to reduce waste and forecast demand more accurately to optimize inventory.

Our business problems include but not restricted to:

1) Lot level tracking from farm to bottle

2) Country of origin tracking

3) Blend management

4) Cost model of average cost and standard cost used simultaneously.

• Accuracy: 30% reduction in inventory scrap adjustments
• Scalability: Adapts easily as the business grows without heavy reinvestment. We went from 20x4 to 24x7 production with no incremental subscription cost.
• Analytics: We had to reinvest in a data warehouse to provide meaningful reporting and insight.

We are implemented Cloud Suite Industrial Enterprise (LN) as a global hub for all of our business systems. We are nearing completion in multiple sites across North America and will be turning our sights to EMEA and APAC. A key differentiator for us was being able to leverage the Cloud Suite ecosystem, so it is more than just ERP. We are also leveraging Factory Track, Supplier Exchange, Rhythm eCommerce, the integrated document management and now the Infor MES platform. We expect to expand to even deeper functionality with WMS, CRM and the Velocity Suite to expand AI and automation in our Infor centric business systems hub.
