Client introduction
CZ PLAST was founded in 1997 as a private company with purely Czech capital. Provides complex deliveries of plastic products according to customer needs. The company’s field of activity is rotational moulding of plastics. Manufactures fuel tanks, plastic sumps, water meter manholes, sewer manholes and other products. Their tanks are used by some cars in the Dakar Rally. Their products are used by many gardeners and homeowners in their gardens.
The company has been using 1CLICK since 2011. With 1CLICK, it handles inter-company communication, feedback to management, process control and automated ordering of goods to the warehouse.
What were your requirements for the system?
“So it was absolutely in the clouds. After your management course, I found out that we need to set up company processes. Until then, I didn’t feel the need. Further, I needed up-to-date information, not when it was available from staff, but when I needed it.”
The breaking point
What was the reason you decided to make the purchase?
“I like it when even complicated things can be done simply.”
Solution (Implementation)
How long did the implementation take?
“We started the system, did the basic setup and it started working. It was because of the simplicity and user-friendliness.”
Have there been or are there any adverse effects on society?
“The negative is that if someone doesn’t want to, there’s nothing you can do about it, then the only option is to break up. But this is true for everything in general. On the other hand, all the 1CLICK execs help
and they love to use it.”
Result
What has the deployment of the system brought you?
-
Facilitating communication and being able to find the blind spots or places where it was too much and then address those.
-
A complete overview of what’s going on in the company even when I’m not there, with the added benefit of making it easy to look at the problem at hand from a higher perspective and then activate the corrective process.
-
When we introduced material ordering, it was cutting edge, and since then anyone could come in and start doing the job without lengthy training. So it was easy.
Did 1CLICK meet your expectations?
-
100%
Anything surprise you?
-
When I looked deeper into how 1CLICK is devised, it’s how easy it is to solve a number of problems.
How much has the introduction of the system affected the company?
-
After a year of use, our hands have been freed up within the company to develop faster. Then we grew at 20% a year for 2 to 3 years.
-
The meetings that used to happen every day before 1CLICK have been cancelled. Nowadays we do more motivational meetings. Everything else is handled through the system.
Can you assess the situation before and after?
“We were small, but still the information was fragmented. 1CLICK has enabled us to pass on information, and only to those who need it. It moved us seamlessly past two crucial, watershed moments that will befall any company that is growing. As you grow, you run into different issues like capacity and such, and 1CLICK has allowed us to work through them without a problem.”
Vision for the future
What are the expansion plans?
“We don’t use everything 1CLICK offers as a company, but what we do use helps us. We will continue to make individual adjustments.”
Client’s recommendation
What would you recommend to companies in a similar situation?
“Don’t hesitate and don’t be afraid to try.”
