Description of <strong>the</strong> <strong>ERP</strong> project:<br />

Successful merchants not only have a great product range but also offer <strong>the</strong>ir customers<br />

a service which distinguishes <strong>the</strong>m from <strong>the</strong>ir competitors. Someone who is able to<br />

reconcile <strong>the</strong>se two things and also works profitably, will be a successful player on <strong>the</strong><br />

market. Westdeutscher Metall-Handel (WMH) has been winning over a large number<br />

of customers <strong>for</strong> decades thanks to a plus in service. The certified supplier has also<br />

established itself in <strong>the</strong> aviation <strong>industry</strong>. The numerous requirements at WMH are<br />

realized in <strong>the</strong> <strong>ERP</strong> <strong>system</strong> by <strong>ABAS</strong>. The <strong>system</strong>, which was implemented by <strong>the</strong> IT<br />

service provider ComputerKomplett SteinhilberSchwehr, provides all <strong>the</strong> necessary<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation and ensures a high level of in<strong>for</strong>mation transparency as well as in<strong>for</strong>mative<br />

cost accounts.<br />

Project support: ComputerKomplett SteinhilberSchwehr GmbH, Mettmann (D)<br />

”We are certain that we have made <strong>the</strong> right decision with <strong>ABAS</strong> and<br />

ComputerKomplett SteinhilberSchwehr and that we will be able to deal with future<br />

challenges in <strong>the</strong> <strong>metal</strong> trade. In<strong>for</strong>mation transparency has been increased considerably.<br />

Key figures can be represented quicker and more clearly. Many processes in our company,<br />

such as plant data collection or cost accounting, could not be realized be<strong>for</strong>e.“<br />
