Optimum procurement processes with the TDM-ERP integration

TDM does not only optimize production equipment logistics on the shopfloor level, but also ensures seamless procurement processes through integration into ERP systems. The integration forwards procurement requests or purchase orders from TDM directly to the ERP system. This makes it possible to order production equipment in a timely manner and ensure cost-effective procurement management. An ERP connection also supports processes in production planning: Customer/production orders are transferred to TDM and ensure order-oriented, just-in-time provision of the tools to the machine.
