For many SAP users, automation emerges as a primary concern for organizations seeking to stay competitive amidst evolving market demands. Many users grapple with antiquated processes and tools, impeding operational efficiency and agility. The imperative for upgraded workflows leveraging automation becomes increasingly urgent considering potential expansions or migrations to new SAP systems like SAP S/4HANA.
Addressing this challenge efficiently and with minimal downtime requires SAP users to embrace automation solutions that integrate with their current ERP ecosystems. For Graphic Packaging International (GPI), upgrading their legacy shop floor system and aging data entry tool while prioritizing agility and integration led them to RFgen Software’s Mobile Foundations for SAP, a mobile-barcoding solution. The solution enhances inventory visibility, optimization, traceability, and warehouse automation.
Utilizing an SAP-certified solution like Mobile Foundations for SAP ensures support for various SAP deployments, whether cloud-based or on-premises, and facilitates data collection and communication from multiple devices while adhering to existing business rules within the database. This added functionality helped GPI unlock a 25% increase in efficiency and 30% increase in productivity in the company’s supply chain processes.
In addition to seamless integration, SAP users should look at growth and improvement plans across the board both domestically and internationally, if applicable. In instances like GPI, having a solution that supports multiple languages, including English, French Canadian, French, British English, Catalan, Spanish, Dutch, German and Canadian English, ensures scalable deployment by empowering organizations to streamline operations across international manufacturing facilities. To date, GPI has successfully upgraded 25 of their North American sites with RFgen, with plans to expand to overseas production sites. The organization’s choice to send an in-house team of RFgen experts after the initial training with RFgen’s SAP consultants also led to a smooth transition, reduced training time, and high user acceptance.
