Use of the INPOSIA Suite at SMS Group to simplify complex procurement processes
EDI in plant construction in the metal processing industry
Digitized, smart processes are the foundation for success in plant construction. Companies in mechanical and plant engineering operate in a dynamic market with constantly increasing requirements. Requested is a portfolio that is becoming more and more specific and must be individually customised. The individualization of the portfolio leads to increased process expenditure, especially in order processing. The supply of companies with working material from external sources
and the associated data exchange (quotations, order documents, delivery notes, …) are becoming increasingly diverse and require good structuring.
In this way, it is possible to guarantee long-term supply in line with requirements at the lowest possible cost.

Additional connection of small suppliers via WebEDI
Especially smaller suppliers are often not able to participate in the classical electronic data interchange
(EDI), because the existing ERP solutions do not provide a structured interface, or the initial investments are too high.
The Web EDI Tool from INPOSIA offers an ideal solution for this. The complete supply chain processes
from the quotation request to the invoice receipt can be triggered directly from the SAP system of the
SMS Group and the incoming processes can be digitally processed.
Suppliers are able to download all necessary procurement documents, including drawing data, via the
INPOSIA Web EDI Portal. The manual entries in the returning processes (order confirmations, delivery
notes, invoices) are made available to the SMS Group as digital data records.
Both the customer and the suppliers benefit from this partial digitization.
