FAG integrates Unigraphics and SAP PLM

FAG Kugelfischer Georg Schäfer AG with its headquarters in Schweinfurt is one of the world's biggest makers of roller bear-ings for various application environments.

Faster Order Processing by Process Integration
By combining SAP R/3 PLM and Unigraphics, rolling bearings manufacturer FAG seamlessly integrated engineering into business processes, and improved engineering productivity. The SAP R/3 system already in use in the commercial and logistic areas for several years also handles product data management, and provides the basis for collaboration.

"We achieved our objective for uniform management of all product-relevant data in R/3. From engineering to sales, we now have continuous processes. In addition, we were successful in increasing productivity. This is demonstrated by the significant monthly increase in completed order construction for casings", sums up Dr. Claus Schmid.
