Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of
enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and
divisions of Global 1000 companies, today announced that Dendro
Poland, a leading manufacturer of foam mattresses and a main
supplier to IKEA stores, has implemented Epicor's enterprise
resource planning (ERP) solution to manage manufacturing, logistics
and finance processes.
Dendro Poland operates in the chemical and furniture industries,
specializing in manufacturing foam mattresses and mattress covers.
Following dynamic growth, changes to the product portfolio, and
construction of a new plant, Dendro Poland decided to implement
Epicor. The Epicor solution provides a precise overview of the
current output, to help managers make the right business decisions
concerning forecasting and operations. With Epicor, Dendro Poland
is able to track precisely what amount of foam is required to
manufacture a mattress. This knowledge helps the company control
efficiency and manufacturing costs.
"We selected the ERP solution from Epicor because it had already
proven itself in other companies with a similar profile," said
Jakub Piekarz, project manager and head of manufacturing for
Dendro. "As Dendro Poland was growing really quickly, we started to
feel the pressure to implement an integrated system to manage the
business. Our decision was dictated by the functionality and
scalability of the Epicor system, matching the growth of Dendro
Poland. It was also important to us that data would be stored
centrally after the implementation, and that we could work remotely
from a single central installation which could coordinate all
external processes.
"We achieved significant business benefits after the
implementation. For our entire organization, it is essential that
we now have a single system that stores information about all
aspects of our operations, from acceptance of materials, production
of blocks, to warehouse management. This enables us to do better
planning and forecasting," Piekarz added. "When it comes to
logistics, the main benefit is warehouse management. We have
records of movements between warehouses with a full log of
operations. In terms of manufacturing, the greatest improvement was
in the field of long blocks production management."
Piekarz explained, "Epicor allows us to keep a close eye on
inventories, something that is extremely important to our core
operations. By replacing a simple application to manage production
with an integrated system, we have achieved a number of benefits
such as integration between our ERP system and the sales system of
our main customer, IKEA. Because of that, we can very efficiently
exchange information about orders, shipments, invoices and
manufacturing planning. Another key element of the implementation
was the integration with the supplies planning system at an
external warehouse. Additionally, when a new mattress is ready, it
is reported with bar code scanners. This optimizes and automates
daily routines at Dendro Poland."
