Discover how REHAU has reduced search times and material creation efforts by over 50% through the SPARETECH API. This powerful automated data exchange between SPARETECH and SAP eliminates the need for manual data export and import between systems. With real-time updates of spare parts data from the SPARETECH app to your ERP and MDG, you can optimize your spare parts search and creation processes. REHAU, our valued customers, has already benefited from our API. Let's dive into their success story!
Like many other manufacturers, REHAU had to contend with significant problems in spare parts data management. These ranged from incorrect or incomplete data records, such as missing manufacturer information or missing part numbers, to inconsistent data with different spellings of manufacturer names (e.g. "Festo", "FESTO", "Festo Gmbh & Co. KG"). In addition, the search for unstructured data, which was located exclusively in the material short text or in the purchase order text, proved to be tedious and time-consuming. The complex SAP search and material creation processes further increased the effort.
However, with the seamless integration of our solution across eight of REHAU's manufacturing facilities in Germany, Poland, and Lithuania, these challenges became a thing of the past. The transformation they experienced was quite remarkable, and REHAU has achieved:
- A significant reduction of over 50% in search time and material creation effort, boosting productivity.
- 14,000 cleansing suggestions were offered, improving the quality and reliability of their data.
- Identification of 1,800 duplicate entries, streamlining their information systems.
- 1,500 discontinued items flagged effectively, ensuring a timely update of their inventories.
We're proud to contribute to REHAU's spare parts data management efficiency and are committed to delivering value and innovation. Join us on this journey of growth and innovation along side with REHAU.
