Canadian Automotive Provider Expands Manufacturing into US by Partnering with DiCentral’s Cloud-based Automotive/Release EDI Solution
Houston – January 26, 2018 DiCentral, a leading global provider of B2Bi Managed Services, today announced its partnership with SAP to provide DBG Automotive with a cloud-based automotive release EDI solution for S/4 HANA. DBG Automotive, a Canadian provider of custom metal products to the automotive, heavy truck, agriculture and commercial industries, relied on DiCentral to deliver the SAP S/4 HANA integration in a tight four-month go-live timeframe to streamline its manufacturing and financial functions.
DiCentral’s EDI integration to SAP S/4 HANA was the first of its kind in the automotive industry, and enabled DBG Automotive to scale to a multi-plant environment. The combined solution delivered a high return on investment under tight deadlines with unmatched issue resolution.
“With the implementation of a SAP S/4 HANA and DiCentral’s EDI translator solution, DBG Automotive gains a seamless integrated solution with improved levels of supply chain visibility”, said Julian Waynewright, DBG Automotive’s Information Technology Manager. “We also gain an intuitive EDI solution that’s more cost-effective to manage.”
DBG Automotive leaned on SAP’s formidable partnership with DiCentral to provide EDI translation, mapping and integration to SAP S/4 HANA. The ground-breaking integration solution was the most recent example of the DiCentral-SAP partnership which also produced on a supply chain integration study in collaboration with the University of Tennessee in the Spring of 2017.
"Innovation is the driving force of DiCentral. Whether our customers need to improve supply chain visibility or streamline processes through ERP integration, DiCentral leans on our leading-edge, proprietary solutions to deliver projects on time, and under budget,” said Thuy Mai, President and CEO of DiCentral. “Partnering with SAP on the first automotive solution integrating SAP S/4 HANA shows the strength of the partnership in this ever changing auto industry.”
