CSB receives FLEISCHER-HANDWERK Award 2019 for CSB BASIC ERP
CSB BASIC ERP has won the FLEISCHER-HANDWERK Award 2019 in the category “Automation and Digitization”. The award of the B&L Medien publishing company was presented on May 5, 2019, at the IFFA, the leading international trade show of the meat industry in Frankfurt on the Main. The independent jury with experts from the fields of science, editorial offices and representatives of the publishing house's management particularly commended the concrete customer benefits of the new turnkey industry solution designed for small and medium-size enterprises in the meat industry. “It is always a great pleasure to award the prize to companies that not only care about their own innovation power, but also about the added value for its customers, by implementing it in valuable, practical solutions, concepts and technologies,” said Marco Theimer, chief editor of the German trade magazines FLEISCHER-HANDWERK and FLEISCHEREI TECHNIK.
CSB BASIC ERP – Easy introduction into digitization for small companies
Hermann Schalk, head of Sales at CSB-System AG, is pleased about the award: “We are proud that we have received this prize from the jury today. As an industry specialist, CSB always has focused on the concrete customer benefit. With our new CSB BASIC ERP, we especially want to help smaller industrial companies, butcher shops and chain stores with the digitization so they are able to meet the requirements of their commercial customers, to optimize their processes and to cut costs.”
The new Basic ERP has been on the market since early 2019, and customers like Juffinger, Kinnius and others have started using it. Schalk, who is a learned master butcher, explains: "In the development of Basic ERP, three aspects were of utmost importance to us. First, the software can be implemented very fast to increase rapidly the power of one's organization. Second, it is possible to use the software comfortably in the cloud, and to extend it or to adopt it to new conditions at any time. This reduces the work for the operator considerably. Third, the requirements of the food retail sector regarding quality assurance, traceability and EDI are covered. CSB Basic ERP thus offers the advantages of an industry-specific solution while keeping the complexity and the need for adaptations at an adequate level for our customers.”
Three ERP variants for companies of different sizes
The choice of the right ERP system is hugely important for meat processors. Therefore, CSB offers various software packages for different company sizes. All three systems are perfectly geared to the specific conditions of the meat industry, but also to the needs of the customers - and can be extended at any time. In addition to the Basic ERP system, CSB Industry ERP is available for meat companies seeking a tailored turnkey solution. CSB Factory ERP is ideally suited for the optimal control of production facilities in international corporations where a superordinate Group ERP is already in use.
In 2016, CSB INDUSTRY ERP was awarded the prize “ERP System of the Year”, and in 2018, CSB FACTORY ERP received the award as “Factory Software of the Year”.
