The Challenge

Whessoe, a distinguished manufacturer of Readymix Concrete, is devoted to delivering exemplary standards in terms of quality, efficiency, dependability, and effectiveness.

With an unwavering emphasis on resource optimization, maximizing machine utilization, and streamlining processes to ensure quality and compliance. Nonetheless, in order to sustain a competitive advantage, the company acknowledges the significance of attaining outstanding performance while effectively managing costs. This involves optimizing resources, eliminating inefficiencies, automating routine tasks, enhancing data visibility, optimizing inventory management, streamlining logistics, and implementing batch-plant automation with Scada technology.

Previously, they heavily relied on spread sheets and some accounting software to manage its production & supply chain processes. However, this approach proved to be challenging in controlling material flow and meeting production demands in an unpredictable market. Furthermore, the company faced difficulties in analyzing data collected from various batch-plants, financial or operating KPIs, which hindered data visibility and led to inefficiencies in routine tasks.

In order to surmount these obstacles and enhance its operations, the company embarked on a digital transformation venture. Opting for the unified platform NERP, they sought to achieve streamlined operations from order management to production planning, procurement, delivery, and financial management. This platform ensured consistent data and profound insights for effective decision-making. By embracing NERP, Whessoe aspires to augment overall efficiency, standardize data, and enable more informed decision-making capabilities.

The Solution

Whessoe opted to embrace cloud technology as a pivotal component in their digital transformation strategy, resulting in the adoption of NERP. This decision was predicated on their aspiration to incorporate industry-leading practices, streamline operations across diverse units, and capitalize on the agility and expediency facilitated by cloud technology.

The primary reason for opting for this solution was its capacity to utilize the built-in functionality in order to enhance the efficiency of streamline operations. Additionally, it enables the centralized management of all batch plants, provides improved data visibility, automates routine tasks, aligns the supply chain, and remains accessible 24/7 from any location or device. Moreover, it seamlessly integrates with SCADA. Furthermore, the concept of user configuration gives assurance of a customized implementation that precisely addresses the company's unique requirements. The swift deployment capability of cloud technology was also a crucial factor considered, as it allows for quick setup without the need for additional resources. This results in significant time savings, enabling the company to focus on value-added activities.

Whessoe's adoption of NERP in the cloud facilitates a comprehensive transformation in various domains such as Production, Procurement, Logistics, Finance, Warehouse Management, Quality Management, Human Resource, Customer Relationship, Asset Management & Maintenance, Governance & Compliances, and Dashboard & Analytics. As a result, the company's team can redirect their focus from system operation management to more value-adding tasks, effectively reducing the total cost of ownership in these areas.

The Result

Using NERP has allowed Whessoe to improve operational integration, simplicity, and efficiency. Collaboration, transparency, and decision security have also been enhanced. In addition, the purchasing department has witnessed reduced operational expenses and improved compliance from suppliers, resulting in heightened confidence in process quality and deliverables. The introduction of cross-departmental reporting has generated valuable cost insights, enabling effective evaluation of suppliers and acquisition of competitive prices.

The implementation of NERP in production has established a continuous digital feedback loop between current operations and future forecasts, aiding in the identification of patterns and ensuring timely availability of materials without the risk of excess inventory. Additionally, faster financial reporting has been achieved, with monthly closing time reduced from five days to one and a half days. This has provided comprehensive oversight of the entire process, driven by more accurate and real-time data, leading to better decision-making. Advanced analytics, especially for financial and operational Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), have been incorporated, enhancing the accessibility of the system and fostering a more cohesive ecosystem among business partners. Consequently, these improvements have resulted in increased profitability.

Whessoe's sales department has experienced an impressive 20% surge in revenue, courtesy of the successful integration of NERP. In addition, the enhanced punctuality in product delivery has fostered trust among customers who can now depend on the timely accessibility of finished goods, resulting in heightened satisfaction levels.

In essence, NERP has emerged as the cornerstone of Whessoe's concrete business. With all operations seamlessly consolidated on a cloud-based platform, tasks ranging from production and finance to order management are now handled more efficiently. Consequently, this optimization enables the team to concentrate on seizing business prospects and catering to the needs of their esteemed clientele.
