We replaced the ERP we used for SAP in the first half of 2019. As part of this project, we needed to rebuild the PLC communication interface between our production equipment and SAP. This integration was, at that moment, the "apple of the company's eye" and we had to work with extreme caution to ensure that there was no rupture in what was already working, in addition to trying to bring new things to the process.

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
