ABB has delivered a Collaborative Production Management (CPM) system to KPAQ Industries at their kraft paper mill in Louisiana, US.
“The ABB Global CPM Product provided to KPAQ has been proven to reduce “order-to-cash” time for customer’s manufacturing operations, improve throughput, reduce inventory and optimize business processes,” according to the company report.
The CPM system has been integrated with KPAQ’s ERP system to support sales/order management, production planning, production management, decision support and product tracking. The system is also integrated with various production systems for real-time tracking and monitoring of manufacturing processes.
“We had a highly customized system that did not fit our current work environment. The configurable architecture that ABB provides will allow for all the tools and reporting needed for decision making and efficient action,” said, Jeff Rake, COO, KPAQ.
Based in US, KPAQ Industries produces virgin unbleached pulp and paper products.
