Digitalization that takes root
How Ensinger Sintimid future-proofed its processes with SAP Business One - while remaining flexible within the Group
As a subsidiary of the globally active Ensinger GmbH, Ensinger Sintimid is one of the leading suppliers of high-performance plastics. The company is a technological leader, particularly in the processing of PAEK, PTFE and other temperature and pressure-resistant plastics for industrial applications.
However, as the company grew, so did the complexity: processes were only scalable to a limited extent, isolated solutions made collaboration more difficult and there was no ERP system that was tailored to the requirements of an independently operating but group-affiliated company.

Integrated, flexible, future-proof
SAP Business One with Beas & ELO
Before the project began, Ensinger Sintimid was faced with several structural challenges: A lack of end-to-end integration between the business units made the consistent flow of information difficult. The increasing complexity caused by three different business units and the high material costs made precise and transparent control necessary. At the same time, manual configurations and inefficient processes led to delays and unnecessary additional work.
