Process reliability and transparency increase with SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution)

As part of the SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) rollout for ebm-papst, process reliability in the production areas was further increased and production cycles were designed to be more transparent.

The ebm-papst group of companies manufactures electric motors and fans, which are used in many different domains. As a technology leader in this segment, ebm-papst has been on a growth trajectory for many years.

With more than five years of positive experience running SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution), the 6.1 upgrade, with additional optimisations in the area of material and tool setup, was carried out jointly with IGZ.

This created the foundation for  improvements in process reliability (verification of material and tools) and transparency (tool availability, documentation requirements, etc.).

The use of other SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) functions and the rollout to other plants and production areas together with IGZ are already planned.

 

"With IGZ we have found a SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) partner who
understands both IT and production processes and can
implement them in practical software applications."

Steffen Ley
SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) Project Manager in Process Development

"This extensive SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) know-how, plus effective
project collaboration has meant the achievement of considerable
improvements in SAP ME
(SAP Manufacturing Execution) functionality."

SAP ME (SAP Manufacturing Execution) Project Manager IT
