In 2018, THK implemented Acty System THOMAS GLOBE ERP, deploying an ERP to support THK India operations and link order processing with global manufacturing allocation. The deployment targeted ERP functionality across internal sales, production oversight, logistics control, and export shipping workflows, using Acty System THOMAS GLOBE ERP as the core transactional platform.
Configuration emphasized internal sales management, production management, logistic control, order receiving and order processing, inventory control and stock allocation, and dispatch planning. The implementation included invoice handling under Indian GST rules with E INVOICE and E WAY BILL capabilities, and supported sales and purchase price finalization, quarterly and half year order forecasting reviews, and weekly dispatch scheduling within the ERP configuration.
Operational integrations and coverage tied the ERP to existing infrastructure used by the India organization, with order processing linked to AS400 Citrix server infrastructure noted in operations. Shipping and fulfillment workflows were modeled for FOB CIF and EX WORKS terms, and the ERP supported vendor selection and coordination with international freight forwarders and couriers named in operations, as well as Indian customs clearance processes across six major seaports and seven major airports.
Governance and process changes centered on structured order receiving target control, stock allocation from global manufacturing plants in Japan, production and dispatch coordination for a newly established manufacturing plant in Sri city, and operational ownership by sales, production, logistics, and shipping teams. The rollout aligned ERP role-based workflows to hierarchical demand signals from sales executive to branch and regional managers, and incorporated vendor and carrier selection processes for air ocean and courier modalities.
