IT INNOVATION AWARD 2009: Top position for ORTEC LEOAwardJune 09, 2009

At this year's INNOVATIONSPREIS-IT (Innovation Award) ceremony for SMEs, ORTEC gained a place among the top 20 IT solutions with ORTEC LEO (ORTEC Logistics Execution Optimizer), the smart scheduling and optimization software for the distribution and trade sector, and intralogistic applications in SAP environments.

This success is a testament to the many years of experience SAP software and service partner ORTEC has in the improvement of supply chain and business processes, and the implementation of SAP solutions. For SMEs in particular, ORTEC LEO impressively succeeds in combining the specific, individual processes and scheduling requirements with the need for integrated and standardized process optimization in SAP ERP.

ORTEC LEO offers first-rate, tried-and-tested solutions for pallet and loading optimization (Order Picking and Freighting) and routing (Transport), which accelerate the scheduling process and significantly improve quality by means of mathematical methods. What?s more, with the aid of a SAP-certified add-on, the processes can be directly integrated in the SAP application scenarios for the Order Entry Service Desk and completion of orders. As a result, all activities can be performed in a single system.

Modules for pallet and loading optimization and routing can be combined with one another flexibly and individually. This provides a system which is modular and tailored specifically to the needs of the company in terms of optimizing its supply of goods.

ORTEC LEO - the SAP ERP optimization solution for medium-sized companies
Medium-sized companies that use SAP ERP require integrated, but standalone solutions for all processes in the supply chain. This is exactly what ORTEC LEO offers, with add-on modules that are directly integrated in SAP. All master and processing data required for optimization of the logistic processes is managed in SAP. Every action is performed in the familiar SAP user interface, which has in some cases been modified, or even specially developed as a dialog window for ORTEC LEO. Thanks to the integration with the standard processes of SAP, users are already accustomed to the look and feel.

"ORTEC LEO incorporates the individual requirements of clients into integrated and standardized optimization in SAP ERP, thereby filling any voids in the process. Furthermore, the transparency of the information is improved, and the efficiency of the supply chain is increased, while logistical costs are visibly reduced by 7% to 10%," says Stefan Althoff, the responsible Product Manager at ORTEC. In addition, a high level of user acceptance and rapid implementation are guaranteed, regardless of the amount of adjustment for the individual user or application.
