DUALIS: Expansion of the partner network – also internationally

August 3, 2023. DUALIS GmbH IT Solution has gained two important integration partners: BDE Engineering and Contec. Both are MES specialists and act as integrators for the Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) GANTTPLAN developed by DUALIS. With the new cooperation partners, DUALIS takes an important step to further expand the reach in the national and international market for its production planning tool. The company is focusing its APS solution more on faster integration by partners and has therefore launched a new GANTTPLAN starter version with shorter implementation times for end customers.

“The factory of the future is digital and lives from integrated instead of isolated solutions. The strengths of various hardware and software systems such as simulation, APS and MES play together. Our goal is to offer customers a holistic digitization approach for planning, controlling and monitoring their production. In the future, we will support this strategy by focusing more strongly on integration partners,” explains Heike Wilson, Managing Director of DUALIS GmbH IT Solution.

APS and MES expertise bundled

New integration partners are BDE Engineering and Contec. In the future, BDE Engineering will use the production planning software GANTTPLAN in combination with its own Manufacturing Execution System. This rounds off the company’s product portfolio with modular software for planning and optimizing production processes.

BDE Engineering is an expert in production data acquisition and visualization. The manufacturer of the MES solution PROefficient was looking for a long time for a suitable partner system for production planning. “GANTTPLAN is ideally suited for our MES suite due to its functional diversity and good integrability. The APS forms the bridge between the production and management levels and can be seamlessly integrated into our MES solution. With the bundle, manufacturing processes can be consistently optimized and output or overall plant effectiveness can be increased,” says Jens Graute, Key Account Manager at BDE Engineering.

The second new addition to the DUALIS partner network is Contec. The international engineering company headquartered in Belgium specializes in the improvement and automation of industrial processes and machines. In the future, it will also act as an integrator for DUALIS’ production planning solution.

Heike Wilson explains: “With its expertise, Contec fits perfectly into DUALIS’ partner strategy. Our partners excel at acting independently on projects and building their own successful business model around our Advanced Planning and Scheduling System.”

As a system integrator, Contec serves a variety of industries, including food and chemical, tank farms and consumer goods. Luc Van Mieghem, Sales Director at Contec, says, “For us, automation means more than just improving processes and machines. Contec works holistically and aims to add significant value to the economy, people and society in all projects. DUALIS shares this philosophy and attaches importance to enabling manufacturing companies to solve the digitization challenges of today and tomorrow on both a technological and human level.”

GANTTPLAN starter version for fast planning success

In line with today’s demand for high agility in the factory, DUALIS has developed a GANTTPLAN starter version. It enables a shorter implementation time of the production planning solution for end customers through a predefined scheduling approach. This means that GANTTPLAN can be used more quickly in operational planning. As a result of the faster implementation, planners benefit more quickly from the advantages of the software. With only a few training and project days, solution and integration partners can get the solution up and running quickly.
