In 2021, KONE U.S. implemented SAP ERP ECC 6.0 to support ERP Financial operations and to centralize material master and production-related recordkeeping at its Manufacturing Engineering organization. The implementation was focused at the Coal Valley, IL manufacturing site where the Manufacturing Engineering group leads material updates, production scheduling, and equipment programming activities. SAP ERP ECC 6.0 is referenced as the primary application for ERP Financial and material maintenance workflows used by engineers and production planners.
Configuration work prioritized master data management and variant configuration workflows, reflecting ongoing validation of SAP VC reported by the engineering team. The project included configuration and operationalization of material master update processes within SAP ERP ECC 6.0, coordination of part program references for the stretch former, and automated capture of production support events such as Andon tracking. The manufacturing team also documented standard work for production scheduling and implemented a training program and validation procedures for parts programmed and tested on the stretch former.
Operational coverage spanned Manufacturing Engineering, production floor operations, and warehouse improvement initiatives, with materials maintenance executed inside SAP ERP ECC 6.0 and used as the reference for part program linkage between old and new equipment programs. Andon tracking automation and the production scheduling effort were aligned with SAP-managed material records and shop floor standard work to maintain consistency between equipment programs and ERP records. The team reported active troubleshooting and validation cycles for SAP VC as part of ongoing operations.
Governance and process controls were reinforced through ISO 9001 trained internal auditing, formalized training rollout for the stretch former, and written program documentation maintained alongside SAP records. The implementation narrative emphasizes process improvements for safety, quality, and efficiency driven by coordinated SAP ERP ECC 6.0 material management, equipment program validation, and standard work adoption across engineering and production functions.

| Workday | Legacy | Workday HCM | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2016 | 2016 |
In 2016, KONE U.S. deployed Workday HCM as its Core HR solution. The deployment targeted HR functions supporting supply chain, manufacturing, logistics, research and development, and Major Projects across the US and Mexico and was driven by a Global Unit Director for Human Resources working with North American and global leadership.
The Workday HCM implementation emphasized Core HR capabilities for compensation management, talent and succession planning, performance management, and staffing and recruiting workflows. Workday HCM was configured to align compensation programs and performance processes with a centralized talent strategy, and the program included development tracks for new leaders as part of the high potential framework.
Operational coverage was site level, noted as a launch of the Workday HCM solution in sites, and organized under a global umbrella concept that centralized multiple units and aligned disparate business plans. The scope explicitly included HR business processes for a $1.2 billion business footprint in the US and Mexico, spanning direct HR support for manufacturing and supply chain operations as well as R&D and major projects.
Governance and rollout work focused on creating a framework for start up activity, including staffing and recruiting plans and development of new leadership roles, while partnering with regional and global leaders to standardize compensation, talent, and performance governance. The narrative centers on embedding Workday HCM as the Core HR platform to unify HR processes and governance across KONE U.S. business units.
