With VCPowerPack, our main focus is the transformation from mass production to mass personalization for the manufacturing industry, where each individual consumer can get what he or she wants. We’re enabling our customers’ brands to personalize their products at every stage of the purchase decision process, which is proven to build greater trust with their customers.
VCPowerPack enables MCP (mass customization production), one basic concept of Industry 4.0. Our newest version combines two major approaches of digital transformation: CPQ and CtC.
Manufacturers face complexity in quoting intricate products. VCPowerPack streamlines by offering plan vs. actual analysis, linking to inventory control, and creating comprehensive master data. Our user-friendly interface supports customers in detailing complex products for thorough calculation and manufacturing.
VCPowerPack is a standardized SAP Add-on to extend and improve the variant configuration in SAP. From usability to performance, we use VCPowerPack to optimize your entire SAP ERP system for product configuration and calculation.
Via RPA (Robot Process Automation) we can automate the generation and management of all your relevant master data for the entire ERP system.
In order to avoid errors during the quotation process, VCPowerPack supports with object dependencies, plausibility checks and detailed status and error messages.
Our claim is speed so that you can concentrate on your business and do not have to wait for the system. Quotations in a few minutes are no problem with VCPowerPack.
VCPowerPack processes all data necessary for a detailed and accurate configuration and calculation. There are no rounding errors or lack of transparency regarding consolidated data.
Mobile integration enables multi-channel sales for a quicker generation of sales documents and master data. Whether from the office, with a customer on a tablet, or on the move.
We understand the necessity to include the data of production and logistics relevant systems in every calculation. Therefore, we take care of the integration into your system landscape.
VCPowerPack supports many areas of your value chain and optimizes all important segments of the configuration lifecycle management, starting with modeling, engineering, sales, manufacturing, logistics and reporting.
CoreVC
CoreVC is a standardized, configurable framework for interaction with SAP LO-VC. It enables the maintenance of multiple product groups within the same SAP configuration and provides the integration of parts lists and routings. Through the object dependencies, as well as the possibility to set the properties for a new calculation of values within the configuration model, you achieve significant performance enhancements.
One configuration model can be used for multiple similar products.
All product related rules and dependencies are integrated in the container for the respective configuration model. They help in setting in-house standards and automating repeating configurations. If, theoretically, a product can be produced in multiple ways, rules can determine which machine is able to facilitate production based on its dimensions. Once found, further rules for the optimal production route (cheapest, fastest, temporarily preferred) are proposed.
Length or weight units for the material can be incorporated metrically or imperially and control offer, contract, and production orders accordingly.
A product family needs to be produced in different locations? Then everyone can revert to the same set of rules. The variant configuration is then fed through the differing, local machine parks.
SmartVC
SmartVC offers you an intuitive and user-friendly configuration interface. Settings for products or components are arranged in a clear and intuitive tree structure. A traffic light system for status checks and well thought-out and detailed status reports simplify adaptions, helping to correct wrong entries. The dynamic display and real time updates enable quick and reliable entries and calculations.
The tree structure of the configuration process allows the user to operate the configuration in a guided fashion. Logically built, it guides the user through the supply chain, from the big picture to the details. The separation in sales, production, and logistic elements also allows a processing by various expert bodies. With that being said, due to our set of rules in CoreVC, this is in nearly a 100% of our customer applications not necessary.
Through a traffic light system, it is evident in every stage of the product description which information are still missing.
Dependent on the input of the user parts of the structure, the user interface opens and closes, thus hiding unnecessary fields and directories.
SmartMD
MD stands for MassData. SmartMD assists with the master data management for material masters, parts list classifications, work place assignments, customer material info records, and so on. Further functionalities for initiating diverse workflows, as well as the work across important interfaces are also integrated. An otherwise sparsely supported manual creation of data and processes is automatically created by SmartMD to a pre-defined moment, which saves time and avoids mistakes.
Through a comprehensive protocol the creation of an object can be retraced. The status report shows possible problems, i.e. that the creation process cannot be conducted by SAP.
Standard SAP transactions are automatically initiated in the background:
Material masters can be created in multiple organizational units (Locations or organizational hierarchy).
Customer material info record (VD51).
Creation of the selling price as master record (VK11).
As a basis for further processing steps, the material newly calculated with certain parameters (CK11)
The new material is allocated to the parts list (CS40).
The new routing is assigned (CA02).
To keep the number of master data low in your system, offers are created with dummy materials. During the course of an order the dummy is replaced with newly created and fully pronounced material number. All additional information, such as texts, remain unchanged.
Updates materials and their respective parts list. Adaption of configuration in case of changed resources, tools or printing plates. This equals a versioning of the material master.
Products of different usage but similar technical specifications, can be combined through separate steps to reduce costs.
If modifications need to be done over time, because texts, manufacturer, packaging scheme, tool number or something similar has changed, adaptions to the materials can be rolled out through mass updates.
Pre-defined upload-data assists with the adoption of master data from the previous system(s). This optimizes the expense, that inevitably occurs during new installations of systems.
