Würth Canada settled for the migration from Oracle JD Edwards to Microsoft Dynamics AX for various reasons. On the one hand, technological aspects such as the scalable architecture and the simple integration into the whole Microsoft world, lead to the decision in favor of Microsoft Dynamics AX. On the other hand, investment security and the broad functional degree of covering wholesale industry characteristics played a decisive role in opting for the new system.
WÜRTHPHOENIX Trade+, on the basis of Microsoft Dynamics AX, meets both typically wholesale requirements as well as Würth specific needs and was therefore the ideal candidate within the selection process. In fact Trade+ like few other solutions is optimized for rollouts within the Würth corporate organization, but is also succeeding in being effectively used outside the motherhouse. And here in particular, the integration of all industry typical business processes into one unique solution proves to be essential for many customers: „With Trade+, Würth Phoenix provides a software package able to display the entire supply chain from the order to the final delivery in a transparent and comprehensible way.“ states Richard Kipin, IT director at Würth Canada.
Last but not least, the broad reporting and forecast functionalities in Würth Phoenix´s solution seemed to be important issues for the new customer. Flexible data views and meaningful graphic illustrations allow to analyze any kind of information, depending on the individual company’s needs. With the introduction of Microsoft Dynamics AX and Trade+, Würth Canada is convinced to reduce operational complexity without renouncing the functional depth for all daily business aspects being so able to ideally support the continuous company´s growth.
