Filtrair filters out supply chain bottlenecks with QAD 27/06/2008
 
manufacturing business software Netherlands-based filtration manufacturer Filtrair says that moving up to QAD ERP has streamlined its global supply chain through tighter integration.



The company, which specialises in filters for automotive paint facilities, gas turbines, intakes and high-end HVAC installations, has implemented a combination of QAD Enterprise Applications and Global Trade management software from QAD’s Precision Software business unit.

Johan Langius, Filtrair finance manager, says that since going live, the organisation has seen improved transfer and maintenance of data from order entry and processing, to delivery and invoicing throughout is supply chain.

“The combined solution has automated the production of Filtrair’s export and shipping documentation, which has led to faster and more efficient filing of customs information and reduction of the number of days Filtrair’s goods were in transit,” he says.

“Streamlined communication with customs bureaux means that our products get to our customers faster, improving customer relations and helping to increase our bottom-line.”
