PRESS RELEASE
ZF Lemförder SA Migrates ERP System and Optimizes Production Efficiency with Magic xpi Integration Platform
South African BMW parts supplier relies on Magic Software’s prebuilt connector for quick, reliable SAP ERP integration
Or Yehuda, Israel, December 6, 2016 – Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: MGIC)), a global provider of software platforms for enterprise mobility, cloud applications, and business integration, announced today that ZF Lemförder SA (South Africa), part of the German ZF Group of companies, implemented the Magic xpi Integration Platform to migrate between ERP systems and to automate the exchange of data between its local production control system and its corporate SAP ERP system.
ZF Lemförder’s production facilities operate non-stop 24 hours a day, 5 days a week, producing parts for 350 cars per day. The Just-in-Time Just-in-Sequence (JIT/JIS) supplier of auto parts to BMW SA was faced with the challenge of migrating its local ERP system to the corporate SAP ERP system. To continue its seamless operations meant that the company also had to replicate the automatic exchange of order and production data that had previously existed between its ERP and its local production system.
Today, Magic xpi is used as the hub for the seamless exchange of client and production information and processes between ZF Lemförder‘s corporate SAP system, based in Germany, and its local production system. Customer order details including bills of material, planned assembly dates and vehicle details are received via SAP, collected by Magic xpi and then sent to the local production system. After the parts are assembled, data is sent via Magic xpi to the SAP ERP to activate internal processes.
“We selected Magic xpi because of all the time it saves us. Its prebuilt SAP ERP connector allowed us to work quickly without deep technical knowledge and its simple web services connectivity enabled easy integration with our local production system. We estimated that developing the same functionality with point-to-point coding could have taken a year, while with Magic xpi it took only 3 to 5 months, including re-scoping due to the complexity of the project,” said Neels Van Rooyen, ICT Manager at ZF Lemförder SA. “The ease and reliability of working with Magic lead us to begin working with Magic xpa, their low code application development platform. We look forward to working with Magic’s application development and integration solution to create additional apps to further automate and digitize our business.”
“We are proud to provide ZF Lemförder SA with a reliable and cost-effective system integration platform that enhances the efficiency of their manufacturing operation,” commented Hedley Hurwitz, Managing Director at Magic Software South Africa. “ZF Lemförder is an example of the increasing number of companies that are relying on Magic’s End-to-End Enterprise Mobility Solution to increase competitiveness in the digital economy.”
