Automotive Industry Production
Production in the automotive sector is carried out with many suppliers. In this context, UTAKSIS offers important solutions to monitor the processes of contract manufacturers and control the supply chain.
Even if suppliers are in different regions and countries, since the software works with cloud computing, each supplier can act as if they are part of the factory for the processes defined for them and enter their own production processes into the system. Thus, the main manufacturer can control the production of all suppliers and eliminate critical stock risks that may occur.
Manufacturers referred to as sub-industry in the automotive sector can be included in the main software or use the system established only for themselves and track and monitor the products they supply to multiple companies.
