Maximum Flexibility for a Diverse Portfolio: How opesus Automates KSB's SCIP Process
The Challenge...
Unlike companies focused on standardized serial production, KSB offers a diverse portfolio, including custom solutions tailored to meet specific customer needs.
This diversity presented a particular challenge for SCIP notifications, as each product required specialized data processing and handling to comply with regulatory standards.
...and what was KSB looking for?
KSB sought an integrated solution to compile all necessary data and automatically proceed with SCIP notifications in the ECHA portal for all KSB European companies using SAP.
Given the wide range of products and related processes within KSB, the software needed to be flexible enough to handle everything from serial products to configured and custom-made products.
