Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of
enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and
divisions of Global 1000 companies, today announced that Wilson
Transformer Company, a leading Australian manufacturer of power and
distribution transformers, will implement the next-generation
Epicor enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution. The company
will be the first customer in Australia and New Zealand to
implement the solution's Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
capability.
With over 650 employees based in Australia, Wilson Transformer
Company works collaboratively with its customers, using its unique
experience and know-how in engineering, manufacturing and
logistics, to provide innovative and tailored solutions to satisfy
customer requirements. Wilson Transformer Company also has two
specialised manufacturing operations based in Victoria, one for
Power Transformers in Glen Waverley and the other for Distribution
Transformers in Wodonga.
Wilson Transformer Company selected Epicor ERP through Epicor's
strategic partner, COGITA, which has worked with Epicor for more
than ten years. COGITA, who was recently named "Global Partner of
the Year" by Epicor for the third consecutive year, sells and
supports Epicor ERP products, for design-to-order, make-to-order,
engineer-to-order, configure-to-order and mixed-mode manufacturing
companies in the private sector.
Wilson Transformer Company's decision to opt for the Epicor ERP
solution was based, in part, on the success the company has enjoyed
to date using the Epicor Vantage solution, sold and implemented by
COGITA. Wilson Transformer currently uses the Vantage solution to
support its financial management system and logistics operations.
More specifically, the company was vigorously searching for a
robust PLM system.
"While we were very happy with the capabilities offered by the
Vantage solution, we knew that the platform and upgrade path
offered by Epicor's next-generation ERP solution was ultimately a
better fit for our organisation as we continue to grow," said Ed
Wilson, General Manager, Power Business Unit at Wilson Transformer
Company. "In particular, we were also impressed with the product
lifecycle management capability offered through Epicor ERP. We have
been looking for a comprehensive PLM system for some time. Given
the nature of our business, it is critical we have access to, and
complete visibility of all information pertaining to a specific
product including specifications, design, client liaison, service,
maintenance, manufacture and procurement terms. Ultimately, we
wanted an end-to-end solution that would enable is to generate
greater efficiencies in terms of design, production and engineering
workflows."
"The out-of-the-box integration of the PLM system with Epicor,
as well as its integration with other third party systems including
3D CAD, was a huge draw for us. In addition, the modern technology
and flexible platform of Epicor ERP, which is built on Microsoft
.NET technology, was also a very attractive proposition. By
upgrading from Vantage to Epicor ERP, we have the best of both
worlds: we still retain a strong ERP infrastructure but now have
the added integrated PLM component, which we have been striving
for, for some time. Knowing we will work closely with COGITA for
the initial implementation and for ongoing support is also a huge
comfort for us," explained Guy Barnsley, Mechanical Engineering
Manager at Wilson Transformer Company, Power Business Unit.
"Manufacturers all over the world enjoy Epicor's ease of use,
ability to adapt to business and industry-specific requirements,
and scale as they expand, change, and ultimately grow -- we are
confident that Wilson Transformer will be no exception," said
Charles Hamilton, senior regional director for Epicor. "We have
redefined enterprise software to maximise productivity in every
area of our customer's business operations. We believe that by
offering Wilson Transformer Company a robust and flexible platform,
they will achieve a single version of truth across their business
processes and value chain."
"As an early adopter of our Vantage solution in Australia, we
are encouraged by Wilson Transformer's decision to upgrade to our
latest ERP offering, and trust they will reap the same, if not
greater rewards. We are privileged to be working with such a well
respected and progressive Australian company," said Hamilton.
Roger Fairgray, client services director for COGITA, said, "We
are delighted that Wilson Transformer Company is expanding its
engagement with Epicor by leveraging the increased functionality
and scope of embedded modules that Epicor ERP has to offer,
including: Advanced Planning and Scheduling, Maintenance
Management, Enterprise Quality Assurance, Enterprise Performance
Management, as well as expanding to PLM."
