Berlin, 22 February 2017 – PSI Automotive & Industry GmbH, a subsidiary of PSI, has been contracted by ATH Altonaer-Technologie-Holding GmbH, Hamburg, to implement the new version 9 of the ERP system PSIpenta for ATH and the Group companies KROENERT, ZAE-AntriebsSysteme and DRYTEC. PSIpenta replaces the old system currently in place.
In addition to PSIpenta/Multisite, a central purchasing department and service, the scope of supply also includes numerous other modules, manufacturing execution system (MES) components, a control centre and the project management extension module PSIprofessional, as well as data warehousing/business intelligence (DWH/BI) and finance.
Following a highly competitive selection process, Altonaer-Technologie-Holding chose the ERP system PSIpenta. Ultimately, it all came down to an in-depth understanding of the typical production requirements of a systems manufacturer and serial producer. In future, these will be optimally combined in a Multisite solution spanning Altonaer-Technologie-Holding’s production facilities to allow the three companies to cooperate more effectively in business and logistics.
PSI was able to impress ATH from the beginning of the selection process by offering a preview of its latest technological advancement: PSIpenta version 9. Due to the PSI Java-based framework, PSIpenta users can configure and combine interfaces with the new and intuitive PSI Click Design. The aim of the new ERP system launch is to increase production process transparency and create shared value for affiliated companies.
