How can you be competitive despite foreign competition? Duray, a wool sock manufacturer that has been operating for 75 years, started with automation. This time the entirety of the firm's management is what will be optimized.
Fidelio ERP will be implemented in the manufacturer’s two factories and administrative offices in Princeville, in the Centre-du-Québec region.
“The woollen technique of wool carding has been passed down for centuries. Originally done by hand, carding is now done using high-tech computerised machinery.” - Duray
The automation of the production means large inventory to manage, and this is where the Fidelio ERP software will make a difference. Also, production management will be optimised in terms of planning and scheduling. It has been a while since the authentic woollen sock has been handmade at Duray. However, with Fidelio, the management of the company and its operations will enter the modern era.
The Commsoft Technologies team is proud to contribute to the success of a Quebec company that helps create jobs here:
"It’s a point of pride that our socks are produced entirely in Canada" - Duray
According to the Duray team, Fidelio was able to carve out a place for itself among the initial choices thanks to the balance between the quality of the product (functionalities), the answer to Duray’s needs, and the cost.
Furthermore, the organization of the information and the clarity of the interface (HUI) helped Fidelio to stand out. With Fidelio one can visualize the company, its information, and all that it entails.
Finally, Duray felt confident about its decision thanks to the availability, expertise, and authenticity of the Fidelio representative.
