Kundenreferenz: Betec Electronic GmbH
Branche: Elektroindustrie & High Tech
Thema: Enterprise Resource Planning
Integrierte Unternehmenssoftware konsolidiert Geschäftsprozesse
Erstellt am 23.11.2005
„Die vielen Verbesserungen, die Navision gebracht hat, lassen sich nicht in Zahlen fassen.“
Dr. Matthias Maier, Geschäftsführer der Betec Electronic GmbH
Das Elektronikunternehmen Betec hat gut lachen. Der Spezialist für Leiterplatten spielt die höchsten Trümpfe des Mittelstandes geschickt aus: Flexibilität und kurze Entscheidungswege. Prall gefüllte Auftragsbücher sorgten in den letzten Jahren für ein rasantes Umsatzwachstum. Mit seiner pragmatischen Arbeitsweise und seinen unorthodoxen IT-Strukturen stieß der Fertigungsbetrieb jedoch an die Grenze seiner Leistungsfähigkeit. Das sprunghaft gestiegene Datenvolumen drohte die vorhandenen Systeme zu überfordern. Kürzlich stellte das Unternehmen deshalb die Weichen in Richtung Zukunft. Mit der Einführung einer integrierten betriebswirtschaftlichen Standardsoftware konnte die Betec Electronic GmbH die bestehenden Abläufe in lückenlose Geschäftsprozesse überführen. Die gestiegene Datentransparenz liefert dem Management zu allen wichtigen Entscheidungen aktuelle Geschäftszahlen.

Integrated company software consolidates business procedures
Issued on 23.11.2005
“It is difficult to put a figure on the numerous improvements brought about by Navision.”
Dr. Matthias Maier, managing director at Betec Electronic GmbH
The electronics company Betec can afford to smile. The printed circuit board specialist knows how to play a medium-sized company’s best cards: flexibility and a short decision making process. Crammed order books have lead to a rapid growth in sales in recent years. However, the production company’s pragmatic working methods and unorthodox IT structures meant that it was reaching the limits of its capacity. The volume of data to be processed had jumped up dramatically and was threatening to overextend its existing systems. The company therefore recently set its sights on the future. By introducing an integrated business software package, Betec Electronic GmbH was able to transfer existing working practices into seamless business procedures. The increase in the clarity of data provides management with the up-to-date business information required for making all the most important decisions.

With 12 years experience as an export sales manager before becoming a translator, I have practical knowledge of a wide range of sales, marketing and management disciplines. The industry that I worked in was industrial textiles, making me conversant in extrusion technology and a multitude of application areas from lifting gear to geosynthetics. I have had wide exposure to quality management, internal auditing and testing procedures.
