The management of a textile production company needs to see all its key performance indicators from a centralized perspective. The collected data from the Intex ERP Production Data Collection needs to be optimized for a clear inter-relational presentation. For this, Intex ERP-Business Suite is displaying all relevant data in an aggregated way in an executive information dashboard. Key figures, such as turnover of the actual year in comparison to the previous year, are precisely analysed and presented in a dashboard providing a clear structure and distinct information. This function enables the board of directors to be clearly aware of the highly informative business figures. Amongst others the actual releases of the Business Intelligence Solution, Business Process Management and Executive Information System integrations are matching the demands of the Textile Manufacturers at ITMA. Furthermore, the state of the art Multi-Level MRP Run including Automated Order Creation is catching interest.

Intex Consulting Group is aiming to establish itself as the ERP-Software Solution Provider for the next level of textile production system. The development of a Production Data Collecting System which is upgradable and machine manufacturer independent is the first step into the future, considering the concept of Industry 4.0. The recently announced cooperation of Intex Consulting Group with ITA at the RWTH Aachen University is aiming at a scientific analysis of reasonable solutions. In the specific first project of this cooperation, the bilateral interconnection of a weaving loom with an on-loom quality inspection system is being developed. Intex ERP-Business Suite is the parent system, which is analysing and distributing the collected information in this scenario.

Due to the present relevance of the topic Industry 4.0, ITMA is the optimal spot for Intex Consulting Group to function as a bridge-building system between the customer demands and the machinery producers. The way these parties are interacting will lead to an awareness of the multilateral similarities and help to identify possibilities to proceed into the advanced features offered by the fourth industrial revolution.
