挑战
By 1997, Ettore Products Company had outgrown their existing software systems, which were failing to meet their needs. The incumbent solution lacked detailed costing figures, such as landed cost tracking, and was infected with a computer virus that impeded accurate inventory retrieval. This compromised their ability to plan for future purchases. Additionally, the company struggled with inefficient inventory control practices, requiring manual counts for purchasing and scheduling. The system's failures and lack of scalability were major obstacles to Ettore's growth.
关于客户
Ettore Products Company, headquartered in Alameda, California, is a market leader in the production of squeegees and associated products like cleaners, scrubbers, and extension poles. Founded in 1936, Ettore patented the first single-blade squeegee, which remains a staple in their product line. The company holds 80% of the consumer market and 75% of the professional window-cleaning market. Ettore's products are sold across North America in hardware, home improvement, and grocery stores. They also provide professional cleaning and safety tips through brochures and videos on their website.
解决方案
Ettore Products Company implemented the SYSPRO ERP system after careful consideration. The new system was built from scratch to avoid transferring any virus-infected data from the old system. The SYSPRO ERP provided accurate forecasting abilities, factory scheduling, and advanced role-based interfaces. The company upgraded to SYSPRO 6.0, Service Pack 1, which included new functionalities and modules like the Factory Scheduling module and SYSPRO Office Integration. These enhancements allowed for better data management, real-time access to stock code history, and improved decision-making capabilities.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
