    “The implementation of Proalpha ERP was handled very professionally, despite the many challenges posed by our highly diverse business units. We were fully operational from day one and are now benefiting from significantly more efficient processes and greater transparency.”

    Highlights

    Comprehensive ERP solution for all business areas

    Mechanical engineering, contract manufacturing, and metalworking are all managed centrally in Proalpha.

    Integrated CAD data

    With CA-Link, design data is automatically transferred to the ERP system - eliminating the need for manual work.

    Product configurator & APS

    Speeds up quote generation and production planning, and enables the production of a wide variety of products, even in batch sizes as small as 1.

    What was the initial situation?

    SPALECK needed a centralized ERP solution to unify the complex processes of its various business units - mechanical engineering, contract manufacturing, and metalworking. Previous systems operated separately, which led to data inconsistencies and inefficiencies.

    Why the decision for Proalpha?

    After an in-depth evaluation, Proalpha stood out thanks to its comprehensive package: high integration capabilities, powerful modules such as CA-Link, the Product Configurator, and APS, as well as future-proofing with regard to Industry 4.0.

    How can the success be measured?

    Lead times and backlogs have been significantly reduced, processes have been digitized, and transparency has been achieved. Production planning is more precise, delivery dates are more reliable, and efficiency has increased significantly across all business areas.
