Protex Fasteners reaps benefits of Unity ERP software

Protex Fasteners manufacture the world's largest range of adjustable fasteners and catches. Here Howard Cooke, Managing Director, explains how Sanderson and the Unity ERP software has continued to enhance their operations:

A valuable long-term ERP partner:

“We have been a Sanderson customer for 15 years and their expertise is integral to our business. In 2000 we looked at competitors before upgrading to Unity and couldn't find any that rivalled either the Sanderson software or their expertise.

Our ability to manage operations has improved dramatically thanks to their dynamic IT and support services."

Benefiting from real-time shop floor data collection:

“Our shop floor data was originally collected and calculated manually which was slow and subject to human error. We needed to manage information to get a clear view of what was happening, so we could calculate cost and capacity accurately.

In 2006 we worked closely with Sanderson to implement the Shop Floor Data Collection module that would automate collection of this data in real-time. We haven't looked back since.

Now planning has become meaningful, we know exactly what capacity we have, so we can plan and cost accurately. Improving our internal efficiency has enabled us to supply orders on time, thus we’ve also improved our customer service."
