The work of highly-qualified experts guarantees the proverbialbuild quality and long life of the vehicle components made in Germany. The TV certifiedcompany delivers almost all silencers with a TV certificate or EC type-approval. CAD/CAM supported development and production of tools and prototypes, as well as CNCmachining and sheet metal processing centers ensure that the fabrication of each exhaust

    is only of the highest quality. A thorough understanding of the fundamentals of vehicledynamics, internal combustion engine dynamics, and fluid flow mechanics and how theseprinciples interact and can be altered to improve engine performance is critical. Everycomponent of the exhaust system is meticulously calculated and optimized for each engine,vehicle and area of application.

    Description of the ERP project:

    Elkamet Kunststofftechnik GmbH based in Biedenkopf, develops and produces specialprofiles, fuel and hydraulic oil containers, as well as plastic light globes for customersin Europe, Asia and America. Continuous expansion pushed the used business softwareto its limits. Outdated data structures and resulting non-transparency of data promp-ted Elkamet to look for a new ERP system at the end of 2002. abas Business Softwarewas selected for three key reasons: first, for its flexibility, second, for its internationalityand finally for its guaranteed future. Since abas ERP was implemented, transparency atElkamet has increased dramatically, stock levels were decreased and the rate of stockturnover has increased.

    For example, three orwarders with dierent requirements rom our business areashad to be able to work in one common scheduling module. A decisive advantage o the

    abas Business Sotware in comparison to other systems is the fexibility.Due to this, it was not necessary or us to x the detailed planning o the system.We can make changes and adjustments at any time without losing releaseability o the system.

    Eugen Klein GmbH in Esslingen a. N. (D)www.klein-gelenkwellen.de

    Description of the ERP project:

    For over 40 years the company Klein has been developing, testing and producing highperformance propeller shafts in two plants in Esslingen. All release testing for produc-tion release is done on numerous in-house test benches. The life expectancy is testedand simulated under different environmental conditions. If the test piece has reachedthe required life expectancy then it is further tested through extensive field testing bycustomers to ensure the results are correct. Production is continuously monitored thougha highly effective quality system. This assures that each part is problem free and of firstclass quality. All production processes are carried out to produce propeller shafts in themost environmentally friendly way possible. The design allows a reduction in material and

    therefore the shafts are more energy efficient. At the end of the propeller shafts lifespanit can be fully recycled and melted down to reuse the high quality steel. For large RDTcustomers the final products are scanned per mobile WLAN PC with a barcode scanner.This automatically creates packing slips, packing slip RDT, invoices and invoice RDT.

    For us, abas ERP is the central IT system. I new requirements arise we rstcheck what the abas standard can already cover or i there is something that

    we can realize using individual programming. We were thus able to avoidhaving to procure and connect other costly sotware systems.

    Description of the ERP project:

    Throughout the years since the ERP implementation, the system did not only convincethrough its stability, but also grew with the company. Pankl has a high demand forsoftware flexibility. The significance of the ERP system also grew for the managementin the past years because key figures play a major role for the company listed on thestock exchange. Pankl adopts the key figures of all companies of the group from theindividual clients into a management information system (business intelligence) andevaluates them. For a uniform group controlling, abas ERP provides many options throughthe group accounting module, financial accounting, fixed asset accounting or CorridorControlling.

    We have very high requirements regarding fexibility o the sotware sincewe have to cover very dierent business areas and processes and also because

    requirements change oten - due to Pankls growth. Generally,in the car racing industry we must, or example, work with very short periods

    rom development to supply. This means we must plan in detail and fexibly.Extremely short processing periods must also be realized. The abas Business Sotware

At the end of 2002 the decision was made in favor of the ABASProjektierung. By means of the implementation method, the abas Business Softwarewas gradually implemented: in July 2003 the EDI application was started, in August thefinancial accounting and the remaining areas in October of the same year. In addition to animprovement of the organizational processes, the abas ERP implementation also yieldedan increase in productivity because more processes can be processed with the sameamount of employees.

To cope with theincreasing challenges of the automotive industry, Ruffini invested in a number of projects,one of them being a new ERP solution. In the first step abas ERP was installed at Ruffiniand Alumec. Reasons for the selection of abas Business Software were, on the one hand,the convincing presentation of the software as well as the closeness to the abas consultant

    and, on the other hand, the automotive-specific solutions that were already represented inthe software.

    We especially like the act that abas ERP covers special EDI unctions,as well as the container management. Furthermore, the abas ERP solution seemed
