Join ABAS and partners on May 28th, 2013 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and meet executives and key users from industrial midsize companies who have successfully implemented an ERP solution in multiple countries, stayed within budget and received a great value for their business.

Remember, ERP 360º in Saudi Arabia in 2012 was a great success
The “BIG LAUNCH” of abas Business Suite in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. ABAS Software AG and local software partner, Saba Technology, showcased the new abas Business Suite, including ERP, DMS, BI and mobile solutions, to midsize manufacturing companies.
Peter Forscht, COO and co-founder of ABAS Software AG said after the event:
“With Saba Technology, we have a local software partner that shares our values, and who is able to deliver our uniquely developed software to midsized companies in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This is a great day for the abas world!”

When fully implemented, a lean manufacturing strategy transforms the entire manufacturing enterprise by cutting waste and removing non-value added processes. In general, a manufacturer puts into place a lean strategy by:
- Cultivating a culture of continuous improvement.
- Streamlining processes and creating a well ordered work environment.
- Adopting lean principles company-wide, from senior leadership to production workers.
The Role of ERP
ERP systems can play a key role in facilitating lean manufacturing by continually measuring and monitoring key production metrics. A powerful approach is to redesign workflows to follow a lean strategy during ERP implementation. When implemented strategically, ERP solutions provide a lean foundation by capturing mission-critical data that crosses a variety of functional areas including production, inventory management, erp, logistics, scheduling and more.
It’s been my experience that the most successful manufacturers achieve lean success when they use ERP to track and monitor the following metrics from their ERP systems:
- Equipment reliability data
- Organized, documented work instructions
- Material flows
- Defect, production quality metrics
- Customer demand requirements
- Inventory levels
While not an exhaustive list, the areas above have one thing in common: successful manufacturers use their ERP solutions to clearly see operations via continuously monitored data that is available throughout the organization.
By measuring production data relative to material flow, production traceability, resource performance, production quality and other areas, manufacturers gain a better ability to identify continuous improvement opportunities and remove waste.

All activities in the abas Business Suite are tracked as soon as a quotation is created and released from within the LISEGA group. If the quotation leads to a sales order, all required data are already available in the system and modifications can be made. It is irrelevant in which LISEGA subsidiary the quotation was created and in which the quotation is further processed. A significant foundation in the sales order processing represents the warehouse and production organization which ensure quick availability through a requirement oriented scheduling and control. Through this the different warehouse locations of the LISEGA subsidiaries worldwide are included in the scheduling.
