WS Westin have successfully upgraded their ERP Software to WinMan Version 7 taking advantage of the rich user interface and significant additional functionality provided over and above Version 6.
WS Westin utilise WinMan to support their configure-to-order products (mostly bespoke domestic kitchen extractors and related products). One of the new rules based configurator models replaces many of the existing models required under the previous version; this reduces the time to create new and maintain existing products but also allows more complex product features to be handled by WinMan.
With the latest version of the WinMan ERP system Westin are achieving significant efficiency, accuracy and standardisation improvements in product quoting, manufacturing pack generation, stock and labour planning.
“Version 7 is a big step forwards in terms of functionality and the ‘look and feel’ of the WinMan product. The product configurator is, indeed, a powerful tool that we are using extensively and, as a result of the cooperation between Westin and SSL WinMan, we have seen the configurator improved still further during our implementation to enable better optimisation of our complex models. The enhanced production Planning and MRP features are also delivering great benefits.
The package as a whole is enabling Westin to integrate our business processes as never before.
We are still in the ‘early days’ phase and are, therefore, appreciative of the great support we are receiving from the SSL staff.”
Quote from Mike Sharpe, WS Westin
WS Westin have a ten concurrent WinMan user licence and have been a user since 2002.
