Case: REEL Alesa AG

REEL Alesa AG develops tailor-made solutions from first concepts to project execution including a comprehensive range of all-inclusive after-sales services worldwide. 

For more than 50 years, REEL Alesa AG has been a global leader in providing innovative, sustainable materials handling and process plant solutions primarily to the aluminum industry but also to the power, cement, mining, steel and fertilizer industries. REEL Alesa AG has an excellent reputation on providing tailor-made solutions for challenging materials handling applications.

The company employees around one hundred people located in Switzerland, France, Canada and Norway.  These employees used to work with different data distributed across different systems by using various PDM systems in parallel.

One of the reasons REEL Alesa chose to implement Bluestar PLM was the monolithic approach to the overall system. This also caused fewer errors at the end of the overall workflow and an improved quality of the respective data set.  

As a last advantage of many, the implementation of Bluestar PLM has led to a single point of truth, and the information is now only created once and tapped afterwards. This led to an increased efficiency with data reuse by avoiding duplicates and creating complete data transparency for all departments and locations.

Eliminate redundant data entryn

Unifies data in the CAD, PDM and ERP inside D365/AX, bringing an end to manual data entry and the existence of redundant data. 

Easy access to CAD, PDM and ERP data

 CAD users gets direct access to ERP data directly from the CAD system. Users in the supply chain have access to related information on BOMs and items, allowing everybody to work with the same set of information.  

Reduce errors & save time

 By automatically updating changes to product data, the task of manual data handling is reduced, leading to fewer errors.  

Optimized efficiency

By minimizing the time spent on clerical tasks, such as manually transferring data to other teams, the engineering team can spend time where it is most valuable: executing projects and perfecting designs.  

Future-proof & scalable

Paves the way for an easy implementation of ERP-based PLM in the future that is integrated with your existing PDM and CAD tools.
