Broshuis introducing new Infor digitised platform
By Jim Gibbins - 1st April 2020
The Netherlands - Barneveld-based trailer manufacturer, Broshuis BV and Infor, a specialist industrial business cloud software provider, which have been working together on Broshuis digitisation* strategy, announced it went live last month with Infor LN and Infor other production solutions aimed at providing a better response to the needs of its customers and to support a new manufacturing strategy. Previously, Broshuis mainly supplied tailor-made trailers and worked according to the ‘engineer-to-order’ principle. Now the company is set up to work to the ‘configure-to-order’ method designed to create a better connection with its e-commerce activities.
Broshuis said it had used Infor Visual enterprise resource planning (ERP) for 20 years and had been looking for new functionalities, including better and more integrated production planning, barcode scanning in the warehouse, more automation and tighter logistics control.
