Metito appoints Infor to enhance its business processes

Metito, a provider of choice for intelligent water management solutions, has deployed the Infor LN enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to enhance its business processes.

The ERP solution simplifies and automates discrete operations providing manufacturers with increased visibility to enable more efficient response times to customers, suppliers, and regulatory needs.

Infor LN also provides flexibility and suitability for the specialised needs of engineering in the water industry.

Metito has customised several external applications and integrated them into the Infor suite. The advantages seen across the business include reduced buying cycles, improved customer forecasting, and sales teams being able to capture customer visit details on their smartphones securely. In addition, inventory can be tracked throughout the supply chain, thereby enhancing project planning.

Metito has operations covering all facets of water management, including design and build, speciality chemicals, and utilities. The company has established many industry firsts over its 60 plus years of operations, including the development of projects in recent years such as the first bulk surface water supply public-private partnership project in Sub-Saharan Africa; El Hammam agricultural drainage, recycling, and reuse plant in Egypt, and the largest wastewater treatment plant in terms of capacity in Serbia.

“As the demand for global water security increases and we continue to expand our global footprint, we saw the need to upgrade our existing integrated management system to gain enhanced operational agility,” said Arnab Debroy, Metito information systems manager.

“Through Infor LN, companies achieve complete visibility and control of their systems and processes. As the demand for water treatment continues to rise in the region, Metito is now better equipped with the agility to optimise its supply chains, financials and workforce,” commented Khaled AlShami, Infor senior director of solution consulting, Middle East and Africa.

Meanwhile, earlier this year, Infor appointed Amel Gardner as vice president and general manager for the Middle East and Africa region. The enterprise software company says Gardner will “drive Infor’s business growth and strategy in the region and ensure agile project deliveries and customer success.”
