Jan Spijkerman – Royal Avebe
Royal Avebe felt the need to work even more efficiently in production. Jan Spijkerman, Manufacturing IT manager at Avebe, explains: “Within the production domain, corrective actions were often required and the reporting was not always accurate. For that reason, there was still an unexplored area in terms of automation and administration.” The MES knowledge was lacking within Avebe, that was when Avebe started talking to Greywise.
“ Greywise ensures results and is the flexible layer of the Manufacturing IT department at Avebe ”
