The ERP for real processes.
Not for theoretical items.
OTEC® is the industry ERP solution for electroplating, anodizing, powder coating, KTL & Co. – developed from practical experience, designed process-based, for maximum process integration and minimal friction losses.
Process-oriented ERP – why it's crucial
Standard ERP systems are almost always article-focused. This works for manufacturing companies – but not for surface finishers.
Because in your industry
- the process determines effort, quality, and documentation.
- you often don't know today what will be delivered tomorrow.
- requirements arise from aerospace, medical technology, or automotive standards.
- documentation, test reports, and proofs are not an add-on, but mandatory.
That’s why OTEC® was developed from the ground up to be process-based, without losing sight of the article.
OTEC® understands your challenges
Typical challenges in daily surface finishing operations:
- Documentation requirements due to ISO, aerospace, medical technology, defense technology
- Enormous process depth with simultaneously tight processing windows
- Short-term order situation ("not knowing today what tomorrow brings")
- High energy consumption → Pressure on process efficiency
- Standard-compliant traceability with limited staff
- High customization effort with standard ERP systems
With OTEC®, you solve precisely these issues – without system breaks in a single system.
