Successful Storie - La Colina
Company located in Cota, Cundinamarca, Colombia; dedicated to produce, market and distribute eggs and other products for mass consumption and poultry.
Successful completion of the Adempiere implementation and subsequent upgrade to Idempiere / SmartERP with SmartJSP as a strategic partner in consulting and implementation.
Solution: SmartERP
In this project we integrated in the same environment 100% WEB the processes of production, marketing, distribution and billing of products, plus operational, administrative, financial and accounting processes of the company La Colina Brands; replacing more than 3 isolated systems, complying with global standards and with the possibility of scalability over time. Currently we are in the general design phase of the vertical SmartAvicola.
During our implementation plan, we trained operators, functional and technical users to work autonomously and with internal support, allowing us to have a tool that evolves with the company and the business without supplier dependencies.
INITIAL SITUATION |
GOALS ACHIEVED |
- Solution Adempiere partially implemented by third parties for basic processes of the company but that do not generate reliable and real information
- Isolated systems:
Accounting Records
Warehouse and inventory control
Local databases and files in Excel
- Use of interface processes to update the information between some of these applications
- The consolidated information could be obtained days later and not at a global operation level.
- Unreliable data and reports.
- Inventories were valued for the accounting record, plus cost accounting was done in Excel files in other areas.
- Changes and designs of reports in the applications required high costs and long waiting times.
- Solutions that work locally depending on the equipment where they were installed.
- Areas of the company working independently and reprocessing information.
- Limited reports in the applications.
- Limitation when handling multiple price lists.
- Control and registration in electronic sheets.
- Deficiency in security processes.
- Registration and manual control of the processes derived from operations of distribution and commercialization of products.
- People had to learn to use more than one tool for their day-to-day work.
- There are no detailed accounting reports that allow generating tax and process settlements to be presented to the management and control entities.
- Due to the number of isolated applications, efforts and information were duplicated
- No internal support for fundamental issues such as modifying reports to meet user requirements.
