Steel and metal industry in flux – Balance
between cost pressure and growth in demand
Prof. Dr. Lothar Grebe, Managing Director
Stahlhandels-Institut (Steel-Distribution-Institute)
The steel distribution on the way to closer customer partnerships:
The steel distribution fulfils its role as a mediator between the steel industry and steel processing completely. Thereby the value creation of the companies (steel trade, steel service center) more and more takes place in the fields of material and application consulting, material requirements planning and purchasing, storage logistics to the precise handling of predefined business processes in the material processing (steel treatment and reworking).

IBM together with OSCo provides complete solution packages
Matthias Flender, Leader Manufacturing Services
IBM (IBM Deutschland Mittelstand Services GmbH)
IBM provides, with OSCo, industry-specific ERP solutions based on SAP®, but as an enriched package for medium-sized businesses.
The report shows how the different production technologies are represented in one software environment using as an example EMW Eisen- und Metallhandel GmbH, a plant of the Schäfer Group.
In addition, it shows how the production planning & control, as a continuous solution in the business software, transparently represents the respective production steps of the steel service center and further processing.
