Bolflex turns to SISTRADE for production process digitalization
Bolflex, a company that designs, develops and manufactures components for the footwear industry, has grown steadily over the years. Given the need to modernize and make production more efficient, the company felt the need to turn to SISTRADE to ensure the digitalization of the entire process, said to “Vida Económica” Pedro Santos, head of the IT area at Bolflex. The results obtained are a reason for satisfaction for Pedro Santos. “There were various software products spread out, there was no specific production management software, only accounting and human resources. It was necessary to implement an ERP that would allow the interconnection and tracking of all the information in the company. SISTRADE was chosen, with software that allowed us to continue production and made it possible to cover all areas of the company, with special emphasis on the industrial production sector”. It was implemented at the shop floor level, given that Bolflex produces everything in-house, from the raw material to the final product. The main idea was to interconnect all business processes, from the administrative and financial area, order management, invoicing, purchasing from suppliers, stock management, job order management to the implementation of MES - Manufacturing Execution System, which includes equipment maintenance, production planning, quality control and logistics features, all this means that SISTRADE is present in all areas of the company.
Currently, the ERP is complete. “There is a concern to make continuous improvement, the software is under constant development and new features that reach the market are being used. In addition to being a program that is easy to work with, it is important to note that we always have all the technical support from SISTRADE. I think this is the ideal tool at the production level. Meanwhile, all the machines are being connected to the system, in order to collect their signals”, concluded Pedro Santos.
