Deutz is a worldwide provider of diesel and gas engines, and a company that prides itself on spirit, passion and a commitment to quality. To achieve better performance, Deutz initiated measures to increase the quality and reliability of inbound and outbound shipments. In addition to simplifying workflows, the IT solution needed to adapt to Deutz’s SAP system and eliminate manual input along the entire process. Deutz also wanted to avoid investing in its own IT infrastructure and cut its process costs.
Siemens AX4 logistics platform offered solutions including that integrated global suppliers, carriers and service providers into a single system and provided central access of logistics data for Deutz as well as its suppliers and carriers.
By significantly increasing productivity, and improving reliability and on-time performance through automated workflows, the AX4 cloud-based platform allowed Deutz to maintain their “customer value, quality, and technology come first” philosophy.
With this implementation, their desire to cut costs was also realized because there was no need for an additional investment to increase warehouse space.
