Metabo runs SAP EWM on HANA

Replacement of SAP LES with an innovative, future-oriented solution

Metabo runs SAP EWM on HANA with LP PoweredEWM

The Metabowerke GmbH is a German manufacturer of power tools founded in 1924. Continuous increases in sales and turnover and further optimistic growth forecasts prompted Metabo to put the existing SAP LES application to the test with regard to throughput performance, optimization potential and future market requirements and changes.

Strategic challenge

Whether SAP EWM meets all the requirements of an innovative, future-oriented
warehouse management system was examined, evaluated and verified by the customer together with us. This was done on the basis of our Rapid Deployment Solution LP PoweredEWM. By creating a prototype on our HANA servers, Metabo gained maximum transparency – which ultimately led to the strategic decision in favor of SAP EWM on HANA.

Challenges in the project

We are facing several key challenges in the Metabowerke GmbH project. The migration from a decentralised SAP LES to SAP EWM on HANA is a significant step that requires seamless integration and optimal use of the new technologies. Another goal is to improve the distribution and spare parts warehouse by connecting the Viastore high-bay warehouse (HBW) and integrating Kardex shuttles to ensure efficient warehouse management.

In addition, various transport service providers for CEP, GP, LTL & FTL and LCL & FCL had to be integrated in order to enable smooth logistics processing. The introduction of mobile processes and comprehensive business process optimisation are also crucial in order to increase the efficiency and flexibility of our processes. These challenges are essential for the successful realisation of the project and the long-term improvement of Metabowerke GmbH’s warehouse and distribution processes.

LP PoweredEWM from LogiPlus

SAP experience from over 20 years

With the LP PoweredEWM system, LogiPlus uses a fully developed and extended SAP EWM system in the project. Our customer receives a fully defined warehouse, supplemented by tried-and-tested extensions from LogiPlus. These result from more than 20 years of experience with SAP-based warehouse management software.

Pre-defined workstation dialogs

Among other things, we deliver pre-defined workstation dialogs, stationary packing stations, picking stations on the conveyor system and pre-defined mobile processes. “Pick, pack and pass” scenarios are also included, as are value-added services and cross-docking. An individually customizable LP warehouse control station for controlling and monitoring the daily load is also part of our LogiPlus package.

The implementation project is based directly on the latest version of LP PoweredEWM. The scope of services also includes MFS functionality with push channels for communication with a PLC. This significantly reduces the project complexity and runtime when implementing an SAP EWM system.

LP PoweredEWM is not a sample system or a sandbox. Our Rapid Deployment Solution is delivered SAP-compliant and installed in your development system as a basis. With LP PoweredEWM, you too can start your implementation project at 75% instead of from scratch.
