Goyal Knitfab of Surat, one of the leading suppliers of specialty warp knits to the sportswear, intimate and industrial fabrics markets, thrives by developing innovative solutions for its clients.
Goyal Knitfab, an integrated warp knitted fabric mill, has three divisions – a knitting plant, dyeing plant and a dyed fabric division. All the three divisions operate as independent companies and profit centers. This ensures increased production efficiency, visibility of order management and production planning across divisions. However, this also increases a lot of internal order management and paper work. Goyal Knitfab was looking for a solution on its e10x-ERP platform to decrease this paper work. Educe Consulting provided the right solution.
Educe Consulting mapped every process in one division that required a reciprocal action in another division – PO to SO, delivery order to goods receipt note, delivery for subcontracting dyeing to receipt of fabrics.
Using its deep understanding of the textile process and workflow, an automatic voucher engine was developed that is totally configurable. e10x-ERP users can automate reciprocal actions in a company triggered by actions in another.
With a total implementation and training time of three days, the Goyal Knitfab team was delighted to see such a robust solution delivered within two weeks of the system study.
Pravin Desai, Asst. Manager – Warehouse, Goyal Knitfab (Dyeing Division), says: “It takes me less than 5 minutes to approve the automated inward of material which would otherwise take me one hr everyday.”
Pravin now has one hour more in his work day that he is happy to devote to other tasks and improve his efficiency.
For Goyal Knitfab, its sales team generates a sales order for a fabric and plans the production, and e10x-ERP takes care of the rest of the activity from there. The knitting division is instantly informed about the order automatically and makes sure no order misses its deadline.
The advantages are decrease in greige delivery lead time – 5.7 days; decrease in dyeing lead time – 2 days; decrease in QA – 2 days; and reduction in data errors and mismatch – 100%.
HighlightsA purchase order in a division triggers a sales order in another company. Delivery against sales order automatically generates receipt note against its purchase order in another company. Delivery note creates job work delivery note and inward note for the dyeing plant, complete with information on rolls and its properties. It speeds up information flow with 100% accuracy due to nil human intervention. Free uptime for team members to complete other tasks. |
