Challenge
Previously, purchases, consumptions and inventory adjustments were managed in separate systems, which generated:
-
Difficulty to have an accurate traceability of spare parts used in maintenance
-
Double fingering between systems
-
Risk of shortages due to outdated information
-
Misalignment between maintenance and purchasing
Solution
From NERV Corpwe implemented the maintenance system Fiix CMMS as a central platform for asset management and corrective/preventive maintenance.
In addition, we developed a customized integration with SAP Business Oneallowing:
-
What all purchases registered in SAP are automatically reflected in the Fiix spare parts inventory.
-
That the consumption and utilization of spare parts in Fiix work orders are reported back to SAP, updating the inventory balances in real time.
-
A precise mirror synchronization between the two systems, eliminating human error and mismatches
Results
Thanks to this integrated solution, Marine Packers achieved:
-
Get complete traceability of the life cycle of each spare part, from its purchase to its use in maintenance
-
Reducing errors and administrative time by eliminating double typing
-
Accurately synchronize spare parts inventoryavoiding shortages and improving purchase planning
-
Optimizing communication between maintenance, purchasing and finance departments
"With Fiix and the integration with SAP Business One, we now have a clear and synchronized view of spare parts inventory. The NERV Corp team understood our needs and executed a solution that saves us time, reduces errors and improves decision making."
