It is part of the national identity, every child knows its red second hand, and it is impossible to imagine Swiss train stations without it: the station clock. The Mobatime brand of Moser-Baer AG in Sumiswald produces such clocks and other clock systems. Its products are sold in over 150 countries around the world. Since Moser-Baer AG was looking for a sustainable ERP solution<\/a> it launched an evaluation project with various Swiss ERP providers.<\/p>\n

GIA Informatik AG emerged as the winner from this competition. \"GIA understands as one of a few SAP<\/a>-providers,\" says Reto Reist, CEO of Moser-Baer AG, explaining the decision. \"She was convincing both in her presentation and in her references. In addition, she speaks the language of SMEs.\"<\/p>\n

Modern ERP solution from SAP<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Max G\u00f6tschmann, responsible project manager on the part of GIA: \"To cover all needs, we have an ERP system template for the manufacturing industry that includes all company processes and process groups.\" Moser-Baer AG and GIA subsequently prepared the ERP implementation of the following process groups: Controlling, Finance, Materials Management, Human Resources, Production, Production Planning and Control, Sales and Order Processing. Subsequently, the project partners imported the existing data into the system configured for Moser-Baer AG.<\/p>\n

Mobile packaging processes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A first part of the project, which had its kick-off in March 2013, was to change the previous numbering logic. Max G\u00f6tschmann: \"We no longer wanted to assign the numbers externally, but rather internally within the system. This was a big step because all spare parts catalogs still had old numbers.\"<\/p>\n

Another focus was on the processes in the shipping department. \"The packing processes - from the definition of the crate to the creation in the system and the use of handling units to the packing of material - are now mobile. The picking system is enabled by a cockpit,\" explains Max G\u00f6tschmann. Labeling processes are also special at Moser-Baer AG: For this, data is fetched from the ERP system and the contents are placed on labels, which vary depending on the customer, on different layouts.<\/p>\n
