FACTORY AUTOMATION
In the Industry 4.0 era, the key word is digitalization, a phenomenon that makes it possible to collect and analyze data through machines. This leads to faster, more flexible and efficient processes so that high quality goods are produced at low costs.
An Industry 4.0 factory is an independent and interconnected entity that has the ability to collect data, analyze it and make automated decisions. This is possible by implementing a suite of systems for the management of all production activities, from the planning stage to the actual manufacture of the products.
APS is a tool for modeling and testing production scenarios before they are put into practice. The system is frequently used together with the MES solution, which handles the execution of production plans generated by APS.
With the help of a MES solution (for executing factory activities) information can be automatically transmitted to the workers in the production unit.

APS shows you what to produce, when to produce, on what equipment and with what resources. The system uses advanced computational algorithms that help balance production capacity with demand, to generate feasible production schedules. With APS you plan in a much shorter time the entire production activity, starting with existing operations and resources to raw material requirements and maintenance activities.
PRODUCTION PLANNING
MES is a software system that manages and controls the entire production process, from the moment the order is launched until the finished product is ready, in order to optimize all activities and resources in the production process. The system allows real-time visualization of the entire factory, so that you can track at any time both the progress of production and the status, productivity and efficiency of the resources involved.

For Terasteel, the implementation of the production planning suite from Senior Software brought an increase of over 10% in our total production. However, in my opinion, the most important benefits are the flexibility that the solution offers us, and the traceability gained in relationship with our customers.
In recent years, we have felt the need for a better software integration, but also better adaptation to local legislation and work style. After a serious analysis, the Senior Software suite was the one that best responded to these needs.
The PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) solution helps you take control of product information and engineering processes. The platform offers you all the necessary tools to oversee the successive stages of the product life cycle.
PRODUCT LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT
A modern ERP platform helps you simplify business processes, generate fair prices and calculate total production costs. The ERP system offers a full range of capabilities for any type of production (traditional, unique, small series, project-based) and uses Capable-To-Promise functionality to meet customer requirements, depending on production capacity and material availability.

WMS (Warehouse Management System) helps you gain full control over the flow of materials in the factory, monitor consumption and production efficiency, and automate quality control processes. The system includes rules for unloading goods (FIFO / FEFO / CMP), allows the management of different units of measurement (l, kg, m, pcs) and offers the possibility to reserve stocks. WMS also ensures serial / batch traceability for raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products.

The Inventory system shows you what you need to order, how much to order, when to order and where to store the goods, in order to properly cover stock needs for the production unit. Through the application you can easily plan the necessary stock and you can quickly generate orders for supply, transfer or production. Moreover, the system takes into account all the variables that could influence the size of demand, such as seasonality or trends, so that stocks are permanently correlated with production.

The CPM solution combines planning, simulation and analysis to achieve the perfect balance between supply and demand, to efficiently manage profitability and to align financial objectives with factory operations. The system helps you gather operational data from various regions, business lines, cost centers and factories, and correlate them with financial and business objectives.

The E-commerce platform from Senior Software is ideal for production companies that manage products with a short shelf life, regardless of the industry in which they operate: food or non-food. With an ecommerce portal, manufacturers can shorten the sales chain. Therefore, the products reach the customers immediately, the number of intermediaries is reduced, customer satisfaction is increased, and storage costs are lowered.
What challenges does the ecommerce solution for online sales solve?
EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is a platform through which you can electronically transfer, in XML format, information and documents resulting from business relationships. The EDI solution is dedicated to production companies that need to transfer large volumes of documents and want to streamline these operations. Without an EDI platform all documents are manually submitted, which delays the entire process.
