On 7th September 2010 the MAGO Company initiated a project of implementation of APS system JDA Factory Planner. The project will be realized in two stages within a total of 5 months, according to plan. Krzysztof Sierputowski, the chairman of the board of directors of MAGO says the following about the reasons for project realization: „MAGO is a very fast-developing company. In recent years we have been investing significant means in the development of our company. We feel an increased interest in our supplies. Production capacities of our company are still increasing and therefore it is still increasingly complicated to maintain the economical efficiency, pace, reliability and flexibility of the realization of supplies. With regard to the fact that basic information systems (ERP) are not able to efficiently support the process of planning and management of the realization of job orders, we decided to apply the solution for advanced production planning and scheduling – APS . Our goal was to have a highly efficient planning and scheduling at hand that will be able to take into account all the essential limits (performance, material, tooling, employees etc.). We want to have a system that is capable of preparing plans of high standard and high quality that will serve the management needs well and efficiently. Concurrently a system with the possibility of fast re-planning and verification of realistic term of delivery – these are also key properties for our company that a planning system should have. As the application partner we selected LOGIS – an experienced partner with top product JDA Factory Planner and offer of professional services in the area of change of planning process, of which we were convinced by a series of positive references as well as reference visit at one of the LOGIS clients. We are convinced of fast return of this investment not only in the form of better services provided to our customers, but also in the form of optimization of costs in the area of production logistics and efficiency. We have to state that we did not find any other supplier on our market that would be able to offer similar results of its projects or understand our needs. Our decision for LOGIS was obvious.” Artur Głodek, director of LOGIS POLAND and Country Manager, says the following about MAGO: “Our client shows great commitment to changes in its company, the commitment to increase the capacity of the primary production process. The people in the company have clear and structured idea of the goals and advantages of the project and also the complicacy or changes that will occur in the course of the implementation. We believe that our planning technology, know-how as well as rich experience in tune-up of the efficiency of the general corporate processes shall help MAGO to achieve their goals.
