Meeting the demands of agility, efficiency, reliability, data integration and assertiveness in communication are fundamental pillars in a commercial partnership between two or more companies. Therefore, it is essential to find a systems provider that provides such benefits and guarantees their delivery.
Faced with these needs, SKY GROUP adopted the SWPaaS EDI platform, from Sawluz, to obtain a clear view of the stages of the process of exchanging information via files with its suppliers and business units, to gain more speed, increase the reliability of the information, in addition to reducing the process steps and the need for confirmations. The group has renowned brands such as EMBREPAR, SKY AUTOMOTIVE, FORTLUB, SKY PEÇAS, SKY PRINT, ENVIA PEÇAS and SKY SOLAR, with more than 2,400 employees in 55 branches, present in 13 states of Brazil and in the Federal District.
Supply chain without disruptions

“Our suppliers are major players in the auto parts industry and serve the entire automotive maintenance parts network. With most of our suppliers the exchange of information is via EDI. The SWPaaS platform allows us to quickly analyze the status of those involved in the supply chain processes, if the suppliers received the information and when it occurred. This way we can identify any ruptures and act quickly”, guarantees Renato Tezin C. Carvalho, SKY GROUP's Supply Chain Coordinator. Another objective of the project was to further integrate information into a single platform, so that players have quick access to information and that the process is efficient and reliable.
The executive explains that each supplier has its particularity in sending information. Therefore, sometimes more than one file format is needed to serve those involved and keep all process participants properly aligned. “The increased use of transfers via EDI increases the speed of the process. We believe that the increasing use of the tool will enable us to reduce any discrepancies in information between purchase orders and delivery invoices. SWPasS was implemented to meet our demands in the process of growth and automation”, adds Renato Tezin.
