Among the factors that contributed to the choice of Corrugated, Aldo commented on the relationship of trust and respect with the eProductivity Software team “Today, when I think of the team that helped us during the implementation process, I have fond memories. eProductivity Software employees were very human and generous, as well as transparent throughout the process”, said the vice president.
“In addition, the consultants are very familiar with the system and the industry and know the pains and needs of a company like Ceruti. Their presence in the global market was also relevant to the choice,” he added.
With the Corrugated Packaging Suite, Ceruti started to have a holistic view of production, with the remote accessibility of the system and reports that identify points with the need for improvements in production. “We were very happy with the choice of this system because we could not make a mistake in this decision due to the investment and time dedicated,” he said.
Each of the software modules assists in specific points. “CorrPlan, for example, contributes a lot for the company to differentiate itself in the market in relation to the delivery time. We can manage our production capacity to meet all orders within the stipulated dates, organizing more urgent priorities and deadlines”

The budget module has industry-specific characteristics and creates budgets taking into account different measures, areas, weight, and provides a breakdown of all components of the product and service.”
The system also assists in the traceability of products, a function that's extremely important “We were able to identify the roller and the inks used, the shift in which the project was produced and with which operator. All production is controlled from the beginning until the final result “, said Aldo.
