Fort Washington, PA - 2020 has been a triumph of a year for businesses in the packaging industry. Not only did they meet the new demands and challenges placed on them by consumers, they have quickly adjusted to business impacts dealt by the pandemic. At Amtech Software, we walked beside our customers and assisted with moving their workforce remote, gaining better control over their costs, improving operational efficiencies, and integrating their systems to drive costs down and improve capacity. As we step into 2021, we are seeing a greater demand from businesses in the packaging industry to manage to address new supply chain challenges, continue to improve operational efficiency, and boost bottom-line performance. We have the solutions ready to help them do just that.
SECURE REMOTE ACCESS
Over the past year our secure, hosting service has significantly grown. The combined solution of our EnCore ERP, Secure Hosting, and Business Continuity Services enables our customers to remotely manage their operations from order to cash and everything in between. A fully integrated solution allows for easy remote access of important modules such as ecommerce, BI tools, and digital workflows for a low touch and minimal maintenance environment.
UPDATED COST MODELS
In 2020, we released our new Automated Performance Costing module which allows our customers to review, fine-tune, adapt their models, evaluate business change impacts, and more…when they see fit. The tool is simple and easy for any business manager to use without the need for complicated spreadsheets or outside consultants. In 2021, this will be the number one tool for our customers to have as they face many changes along the supply chain, volumes, and customer mix.
IMPROVED BUSINESS EFFICIENCY
Businesses are seeing the benefits of leveraging integrated technology that improves timeliness and accuracy of information flow throughout the enterprise. This is where our integrated Corrugator, Converting Scheduling, and Shipment Planning Software combined with Amtech Automation’s ScoreKeeperProduction Monitoring Solution provides the right formula of integration. Customers who have already implemented these solutions are finding greater utilization of machines and improved delivery commitments. Our Intelligent algorithms and automation solutions appropriately balance schedules and increase efficiency at machine centers which greatly improves bottom line performance.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Looking forward, we are continuing to develop in the areas of digital integration. With our open API structure, we offer integration with other platforms to enhance day-to-day workflows for our customers.
