A future-proof ERP landscape for international growth
With over 50 years of experience in developing and producing customer-specific brush solutions, KOTI Group has grown into a leading player in the manufacturing industry. The company employs approximately 900 people across multiple locations in Europe, with its headquarters and production facilities in Weert. To support further growth and international collaboration, KOTI chose to implement Infor CloudSuite Industrial Enterprise – guided by implementation partner Xibis.
Our challenge
One scalable ERP system for the entire international group
Due to the growing complexity of processes and the diversity of locations within KOTI Group, the existing ERP landscape was no longer sufficient. KOTI needed a modern, scalable, and future-proof ERP platform that:
- Fully integrates with the production environment, including configure-to-order production models
- Supports financial and logistical intercompany processes
- Delivers relevant data and insights for cost control and order statuses
- Provides mobile and visual insights for sales activities, among other things
- Is suitable for different types of companies within the group: from smaller production units to larger factories
Our solution
The solution: Infor CloudSuite, implemented by Xibis
After an extensive selection process, KOTI chose Infor CloudSuite Industrial Enterprise – an ERP solution specifically developed for the manufacturing industry with variants, customization, and international scale. With the help of Xibis, a trajectory was initiated focused on future-proofing, process optimization, and maximum integration.
Key components of the solution:
- Integrated product configuration (CPQ) within Infor CloudSuite, fully aligned with customer-specific production
- Real-time insight into order statuses and production progress, directly linked to the shop floor
- Factory Track for a paperless, data-driven shop floor with real-time reporting and barcode-driven processes
- Comparison between calculated and actual costs at order level for better cost management
- Financial consolidation and intercompany transactions within one unified system
Why KOTI chose Xibis
“Xibis was chosen because of their many years of experience implementing Infor LN at manufacturing companies. The connection with the team was immediate. Moreover, Xibis understands the dynamics of both large and small manufacturing companies – exactly what we need within the KOTI Group.”
The result: one powerful foundation for scalable growth
Thanks to the implementation of Infor CloudSuite, KOTI now has a modern cloud solution that is easy to expand, with lower management costs and automatic updates. Processes are better streamlined, data is centrally available, and international collaboration is easier than ever.
With this step, KOTI Group is ready for the next phase of digitalization and growth – supported by technology that moves with the dynamics of a modern manufacturing organization.
