MANUFACTURING AND ENGINEERING
Pendle Polymer Engineering
Connecting production, quality and traceability around the work.
Discuss a similar challengeOPERATING CONTEXT
Demanding manufacturing needs dependable information from shop floor to management.
Pendle manufactures high-performance rubber-moulded products and anti-vibration solutions for automotive, aerospace, defence, rail and industrial machinery. Its operation includes a 40,000 sq ft facility and around 70 people.
STARTING SITUATION
Connected production-control needs
Production, quality, traceability and management information needed to remain dependable across planning, making, inspection and reporting.
IMPLEMENTATION ROUTE
Odoo shaped around manufacturing
Odoo is the implementation route, designed around production, quality, traceability and reporting rather than a list of software modules.
CLOUDSABER ROLE
Analysis through ongoing support
Cloudsaber brought business analysis, process design, configuration, implementation and ongoing support together around the way Pendle plans, produces, inspects and improves.
IMPORTANT DELIVERY DECISIONS
Let the process lead the platform design.
- Treat production, quality and traceability as connected requirements.
- Carry shop-floor evidence into management information.
- Keep business process ahead of module-led implementation.
CHANGED CAPABILITY
One connected foundation for manufacturing control.
The work creates a clearer relationship between planning, production, inspection, traceability and management information, with Odoo as the enabling platform.
Relevant to: manufacturers whose quality, production and reporting have become too important for disconnected processes.
