SAP partner Implema offers ProMark as a supplement to SAP for data collection

ProMark data collection and time registration system provides powerful data collection and smooth integration with the business application SAP. The company ESBE is the first customer in Sweden when the SAP integrator Implema launches their partnership with Mark Information.

The software supplier Mark Information who assists companies in registration of production data in real-time for maximizing efficiency and profitability, has linked up with an important partner on the Swedish market. Implema, an experienced SAP integrator, has chosen to deliver a combination of SAP and ProMark to ESBE AB, who manufactures control units (valves and actuators) for controlling hydronic systems in buildings from their location in Reftele, Smaaland.

– Implema is an important business partner in Sweden for Mark Information. They have a very broad company knowledge and are very competent at solutions for small and middle-size manufacturing companies. We see our cooperation with Implema as an important part of our focus on such companies. We help the manufacturing industry stake on efficiency instead of giving up and moving the company to low-pay countries, says Dan Nyström, Sales Consultant for ProMark in Sweden.

ProMark integrates with SAP and combines the advantages of a market leading business application from a global vendor with a Nordic system for data collection and Time & Attendance with thorough knowledge about Scandinavian conditions (with laws and agreements built into the code). ProMark's strength is to collect and deliver real-time production data from the production floor to the SAP solution and thereby optimize the production process based on real-time data. Mark Information has vast experience with SAP integration which will ensure fast implementation.

– ProMark is an excellent supplement for SAP, and it gives us time registration and collection of other production data directly ”out of the box”. We can deliver a better solution, and the customer avoids the disadvantages of large custom-tailored standard products. For Implema the installation of ProMark and SAP with our customer ESBE AB means the starting signal for a large-scale cooperation, says Jörgen Aronsson, Man.Dir. of Implema.

ESBE who develops, manufactures and markets control units (valves and actuators) for controlling hydronic systems in buildings has their production site in Reftele, Smaaland. They are a typical example of small to middle-size companies with their production in Sweden, who can increase their competitiveness by integrating their business system with collection of real-time data and time reporting from the shop floor.
