Dutch lathes and milling machines manufacture Style High Tech says it has selected Infor ERP LN to support its global expansion and to improve customer service while streamlining increasingly complex business processes.
“Our business has been thriving since 2005, and it has been impossible for our software systems to keep up with our level of growth,” says Wouter van Halteren, general director at Style High Tech.
“Infor ERP LN is a flexible business tool that will help support and extend our growth. In addition, the Fast Start implementation will enable us to realize the benefits of the software more quickly and lower our total cost of ownership.”
As the company extends its reach into different countries, including many in Asia, he says it recognised a need for an ERP system that functions across all operations, especially in the area of financial reporting.
He also says that key to its choice was Infor’s Open SOA (service orientated architecture): as the company grows, newly engaged software applications and suppliers can integrate seamlessly with ERP LN through Open SOA. The software can evolve alongside the company throughout its 15-year strategic growth plan and beyond.
“Expanding into new markets brings about specific challenges that require agility to respond and adapt to new business pressures, customer requirements, and competitive landscapes, as well as growing supply chains,” comments Vincent Harmsen, vice president, Infor Northern Europe.
“Companies like Style High Tech need software with business-specific functionality that supports their multi-language and multi-currency requirements and helps them overcome country-specific regulatory hurdles, while improving their operations and customer service.”
