Open structure of NAV is ideal platform for Slim4

The cooperation between Navision and Slimstock has been started in 1999. The company P. Hoenderop in Ridderkerk, the Netherlands, was the first one that realised the power of combining Navision with Slim4. After the takeover of Navision by Microsoft the number of Dynamics NAV using companies, that are using Slim4 for Demand Forecasting and stock optimisation, has increased significantly.
By now most large Dynamics NAV partners have experience with the integration of Slim4 and NAV. That's the reason for the short implementation period.

Why add Slim4 to your ERP software?

ERP systems are the solid backbones of companies. They are designed to handle day-to-day business in a stable environment. Optimising stock in dynamic environments, based on agreed customer service levels, is not part of ERP design principles. An increasing number of stock holding companies have come to the same conclusion.

Organisations favour Best-of-Breed add-ons

Gartner research reveals that many organisations have combined their ERP systems with best-of-breed add-ons. This research also shows that the use of best-of-breed solutions is more common in aggressive types of organisations, compared to more conservative organisations. 

Slim4: zero risk implementation on time and budget

Combining Slim4 and ERP software is based on simple interfaces and zero implementation risk. Projects are carried out with a fixed price for implementation, and on average Slim4 is up and running within 3 months.

In 1999 Slim4 was added to Infor software for the first time. Cito Benelux (distributor of Rittal and Phoenix Contact) had very ambitious goals: a customer service level above 99,5% for the top 5,000 articles and an overall service level of 98% for all 35,000 stock articles.

The 4 stock planners realised the goals with Slim4 that is also implemented in Phoenix offices in the US, China, Italy and Japan.

By adding Slim4 to Infor software companies benefit directly from:

• a more accurate forecast
• lower inventory levels
• ease of use
• higher service levels
• 50% efficiency gain in buying and planning
