Paper Company Goes Paperless - Billerud Karlsborg Chooses CAPS
Paper manufacturer Billerud Karlsborg AB has chosen CAPS™ on a Linux® platform to streamline its logistics process.
Gothenburg, Sweden (PRWEB) October 20, 2004 -- Paper manufacturer Billerud
Karlsborg AB has chosen CAPS™ on a Linux® platform to streamline its logistics
process.
CAPS™ is STRAKT™'s flexible integration and information platform
with tailored applications to support different workflow processes. The platform
secures structured real-time information handling and offers an efficient,
secure and documented communication between both internal and external people
and systems. The applications include the business rules that define and support
the actual processes.
"We have looked for a system to increase the
efficiency of our logistics process for about 10 years, and we are pleased to
have found it in CAPS™", says Mikael Häggström, Systems Engineer at Billerud.
"We need a system tailored to our specific workflow needs and dynamic in nature,
since the delivery of our products is very much a dynamic process", he
continues. "We expect CAPS™ to increase the overall efficiency of the process
and to significantly reduce the need for paper document filing. The real-time
features of CAPS™ are specifically valuable for instance for last-minute changes
in shipment."
"Billerud's logistics process is one of those event-driven
processes where changes need to be monitored closely, that CAPS™ has been built
to support", says Per-Åke Olsson, CEO of AB Strakt. "Tailoring products to
specific needs is generally considered development intensive, and thus a costly
endeavour. Building or tailoring CAPS™ applications takes little development
time, enabling us to offer a customized product for a very competitive price.
STRAKT™ is committed to help organizations such as Billerud to automate workflow
and increase efficiency in a cost efficient way."
The CAPS™ server is
available on Linux® and Microsoft® Windows®. Billerud chose the Linux® version.
“The last few years, we have closely been monitoring the progress of Linux® and
Linux® applications. In our evaluation of CAPS™, we judged that the Linux®
platform was the best choice for us”, says Mikael Häggström Systems Engineer at
Billerud Karlsborg AB.
