Cencosud Selects Infor to Support Growth in Latin America
Infor EAM Helps Streamline Administrative and Maintenance Processes
Atlanta, GA, October 20, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Infor today announced that Cencosud, one of the top retailers in Latin America, is deploying Infor EAM Enterprise Edition to manage and track its assets and centralize information collected across its network of supermarkets, department stores, shopping malls and home centers.
Implemented as part of the company’s Latin American growth strategy, Infor EAM Enterprise Edition is enabling the seamless flow of information between Cencosud’s facilities optimizing their entire maintenance operation. Infor EAM provides a means for Cencosud to manage larger work orders across its network, reduce overstock of merchandise and streamline business processes across its facilities.
Cencosud will benefit from the multi-site functionality of Infor EAM Enterprise Edition, which allows the company to control and manage business processes in different sites with a single application. This holistic view can improve sales, enhance customer service and drive greater overall operational efficiency. Gaining control of all business units will also enable Cencosud to unify processes and continuously improve its maintenance operations in all facilities.
Cencosud chose Infor EAM Enterprise Edition for its business-specific functionality built-in for retail. This functionality addresses critical operational areas, such as asset and maintenance management, order and inventory management, sales, warehouse management, and mobile applications. Infor EAM is easy to use and provides Censosud with a lower total cost of ownership.
"The main benefits Cencosud will get from the Infor EAM implementation are centralized maintenance operations, improved customer service and increased reliability and equipment performance in each of our business units, helping us with our growth strategy in Chile and Latin America” states Uwe Röhrborn, maintenance corporate manager, Cencosud S.A.
“With the pressures companies face to deliver results and make every resource count, optimal performance and management of assets is critical,” said Claudio Umaschi, Infor´s Vice President, South Cone Latin America. “Infor EAM helps enterprising companies such as Cencosud improve customer service, increase operational efficiency and be more competitive."
