Bangalore: EskoArtwork, a global supplier and integrator of solutions for packaging, commercial printing and professional publishing industries has completed the integration of SAP's ERP (enterprise resource planning) application with EskoArtwork's ArtiosCAD software at Model Group.
EskoArtwork's Bangalore based Global Resource is involved in the integration, which will streamline Model Group's multi-site operations into a unified database. CENIT AG, one of the global system integrators and official SAP development partner and specialist in PLM (product lifecycle management), and Dr. Lauterbach & Partner GmbH, the SAP Business Partner and supplier of ERP solutions for the packaging industry also brought their expertise to this installation.
"Coordination of the existing multiple hardware and software capabilities in our production departments within a single database has been a challenge for us," said Edoardo Finotti, leader of the Model Innovation and Competence Center (ICC). "Since we offer packaging-design, print consultancy related to packaging and co-packing services, our new integrated software will be a hugely exciting development," he added.
For the first time, the involved parties set up a bidirectional online interface between SAP's ERP solutions and EskoArtwork's ArtiosCAD. As a result, SAP will directly manage all data - including meta data as well as ARD and MFG data ArtiosCAD's native file format. Cad-X, the Active-X component of ArtiosCAD, is used in WEB and COM services which build the interface. This can help a company in achieving productivity and more efficiency. SAP remains the central controlling unit for general data structure and processes.
EskoArtwork recently set up the Global Resource Centre in Bangalore to support collaborative software and systems integration projects around the world. EskoArtwork is deploying additional support and service activities to Bangalore.
