Fast, predictable and scalable, the rapid-deployment solution combines award-winning Neoris services with industry-leading SAP software

MIAMI — (BUSINESS WIRE) — May 24, 2012 — Neoris, a global business and IT consulting company that specializes in SAP and application outsourcing, today introduces an SAP-qualified rapid-deployment solution for the SAP® Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP MII) application for batch manufacturing to its already extensive suite of solutions and offerings in support of SAP applications. The new rapid-deployment solution, qualified by SAP in North America and Brazil, combines industry-leading SAP software with award-winning Neoris services for a pre-configured solution to reduce risks and help clients get on a streamlined path to achieve excellence in manufacturing execution, performance and plant-to-ERP integration—quickly and affordably.

In today’s manufacturing landscape, companies have wall-to-wall spreadsheets, but lack the necessary resources to turn the “data stores” into actionable performance metrics for tracking and reporting. The Neoris rapid-deployment solution for SAP MII for batch manufacturing can turn the abundance of timely and valuable information into real-time intelligence via Web-based dashboards, reports and displays.

With over 50 successful MII projects implemented worldwide, Neoris offers a large number of resources in support of SAP MII at a global level. This latest Neoris rapid-deployment solution for SAP MII for batch manufacturing simplifies the execution process, bringing together software, best practices and services in a new offering that delivers functionality for managing batch manufacturing operations. Shop-floor manufacturing and top-floor business processes work in harmony and real-time to offer the Perfect Plant, an emerging prototype for manufacturers that overcomes traditional performance management challenges.

“While some world-class manufacturers are utilizing the latest business intelligence tools to monitor their assets’ performance, a surprising number are still relying on outdated spreadsheet methods for monitoring their facilities’ key performance indicators or are not monitoring them at all. That’s like driving your car without the dashboard, the windows blacked out, the rear-view mirror showing where you were a month ago,” said Doug Gattuso, Neoris President, U.S.

With so many disparate factory-floor data sources prevalent in today’s manufacturing landscape, Neoris’ practice in support of SAP MII is an industry-leader with an offering that allows clients to overcome the “visibility challenge” and realize tangible results. The Neoris rapid-deployment solution includes SAP software, configuration, fixed-price service and Go-to-Market Content, which integrates into an existing SAP landscape to provide real-time linkable and actionable intelligence.

With a predefined scope, predictable cost and fixed-delivery schedule, Neoris enables clients to be up and running in sometimes as little as eight weeks with the preconfigured software and implementation services. The packaged solution for batch manufacturing includes key functions such as:

• Manufacturing Operations Cockpits

• Manufacturing Order List

• Material Identification

• Work Instructions

• Quality Control

• Production Confirmation

• Shift Book

• Monitoring and Logging

• Manufacturing Performance

Designed to support modular growth, Neoris clients can fast-track their way to leaner batch manufacturing by starting with what they need now and expanding the solution to a more comprehensive roll-out of SAP MII as the business grows and requirements change.

From discovery and consultation to deployment, Neoris eliminates the guesswork and accelerates resolution to increase plant performance, on-time delivery and improve quality.

“Thanks to our unique Global Delivery Model, we are able to offer clients at the end of the project a fully functional production solution that gives them all the necessary tools to improve efficiency and quality, reduce costs and inventory levels, and comply with environmental standards to help them increase overall performance at their manufacturing operations,” commented Claudio Muruzábal, CEO of Neoris.

SAP and Neoris have been working together for more than seven years to help companies realize information technology (IT) and business results from their investments in SAP applications. In May 2011 Neoris reached a major milestone when it became an SAP global services partner and the first global services company with Latin American origins to achieve this status.
