Enterprise Packaging Solution

Decentralized Packaging Systems Continue to Run up Significant Costs

Integrated Packaging
  • Managing packaging specifications with global, regional, and regulatory variations
  • Sourcing and purchasing packaging materials for global distribution
  • Labeling, translating, and creating packaging artwork
This is only a short list of processes that are often disconnected within a company's enterprise system. Such decentralization creates gaps in which direct and operational costs drain the organization, yet often go unaddressed.

Integrated Packaging Built with SAP

Linx/AS Enterprise Packaging Solution (EPS) bridges process gaps, fostering collaboration and data sharing across the enterprise with business partners. Using SAP R/3 and cProjects Suite (includes cFolders), Linx/AS puts the business enablers in place, so companies can rein in packaging costs and wield the power of SAP to:

  • Standardize packaging information systems and align them with SAP data
  • Create a global packaging strategy with controlled local variations for values and product use
  • Control the authoring and change of specifications by status control and change management
  • Automatically route approvals to internal and external mail systems
  • Link drawings, images, test specifications and standards to packaging specifications
  • Create flexible specification layouts with Microsoft® Word functionality
  • Handle multi-language labeling requirements automatically

Create. Change. Extend.

With EPS in place, packaging across the enterprise is agile. Create specifications with speed-simply copy, reference, or import existing data. You control data consistency with properties modeled to your business. Likewise, changing specifications is swift. As resource, regulatory, or market influences arise, packaging can be changed in step.

EPS also extends to meet other PLM needs. Recipe Management at the start of product development, through Material Safety Data Sheets and Waste Management & Disposal—all leverage core SAP functionality and reporting capability.
